Finding Comfort on the Go: Portable Solutions for Travelers with Difficulty Walking or Standing

As someone who has dealt with hip pain for the past few years, and who spends 6 to 7 months of the year hosting travel groups, finding a solution was crucial. My orthopedic surgeon advised against a hip replacement, and I wasn’t keen on “pain management” strategies.

I found some relief through physical therapy, which has allowed me to walk long distances without needing to sit down. However, for about two years, I faced significant challenges, particularly during walking tours where prolonged standing was required.

Then, I observed one of my clients using a portable stool on one of our Outlander Tours. What a fantastic idea!

I discovered two great products: a portable stool and a walking stick/seat combo. These items have made a significant difference in my travel experiences, and they might be beneficial for you as well. Please note, we do not receive any commission or kickbacks from these products; we simply want to share what has worked for us!
