Love this feel good story! Having physical difficulties does not mean you cannot live your life to the fullest. Make every moment count.

Sy leef dalk al vir langer as ’n eeu en kom meestal met die hulp van ’n loopraam oor die weg, maar dit het ’n vrou van 104 jaar oud nie gekeer om onlangs een van haar wildste drome te bewaarheid nie: Om uit ’n vliegtuig te vryval.

It’s Okay to be Brave.

Sometimes the bravest thing to do is to ask for help. You are not alone and do not have to struggle with basic activities as a result of an injury, aging, arthritis or limited movement.

At AdaptAbility we are constantly developing or sourcing new products to make your life easier.

As Occupational Therapists we believe that you can either:
1. Adapt the task
2. Modify the environment, or
3. Use assistive devices to continue to participate as you did before.

We understand that sometimes a person needs a carer or loved one to assist, but believe that they should still be afforded the opportunity to participate in some way, and complete the steps they can still do.

We are always ready and available to brainstorm with you if we do not have the answer or product.

Much Love,

We like to provide our clients with options. We all have our own needs and sometimes we need something different. We now stock two types of long-handled sponges. A scrubby with medium length, and a medical sponge with an extra long handle.

Long handles assist with reaching feet and back, without needing to bend down.

At AdaptAbility, we advocate for safe participation in Activities of Daily Living.

PRODUCT FOCUS - Bum Wiper

This product enables you to reach your bottom for easy wiping. This might seem like a foreign concept, but as people age, they struggle to twist and reach as a result of painful backs, or reduced shoulder movements.

It is recommended for people who have had surgery and are not allowed to rotate their trunks or bend forward.

How does it work? You place toilet paper over the front part, wipe and then press the button to release the paper into the toilet after use. Being able to wipe is a giant step towards independent living.

At AdaptAbility we are passionate about providing solutions for you.

PRODUCT FOCUS - Velcro Straps and Carabiners

At AdaptAbility we advocate being hands-free! We believe that your hands should be used to participate in activities rather than used to carry things around.

When walking with a mobility device such as a walker or when pushing your wheelchair you need both hands. This velcro strap and carabiner combination can be adjusted around your rollator’s bar, your arm, your handbag, or any other object - to clip keys or cellphones on for easy hands-free carrying.

AdaptAbility thinks outside of the box.

Bottle hooks are such clever inventions that can be adjusted to any cool drink or water bottle. The velcro strap can be secured to your belt or belt loops and easily clips loose from the bottle.

It is also used by our active clients climbing mountains, hiking, or walking on the beach.
