Overview

Big Wheel - Senior / PRM Health Fitness

The Ferris Wheel is a piece of outdoor fitness equipment designed for seniors and people with reduced mobility (PRM).

It enables wide, circular movements of the upper limbs, promoting mobility of shoulders, elbows and wrists. The biomechanics are based on a guided, fluid rotation, stimulating the deltoids, trapezius and scapular stabilizing muscles. This gentle exercise improves coordination, stimulates blood circulation and helps maintain joint flexibility and functional autonomy.
