I consider riding a Trikke CV a “no impact” activity and there is no impact stress to the spine and weight bearing joints.
Patients that suffer from osteoarthritis and degenerative arthritis of the hips, knees, and lower extremities, as well as those with chronic back pain are excellent candidates to use the Trikke CV. I would also recommend the use of the Trikke CV to patients that suffer from dysfunctional knee disorders, as well as patients with upper extremity arthritic conditions and shoulder rotator cuff abnormalities. Perhaps one of the best indications to use the Trikke CV is in the rehabilitation post injury and post-operatively of Orthopaedic musculoskeletal conditions such as long-bone fractures, sprain-strains, and neuromuscular re-education after prolonged immobilization or surgery. The Trikke CV is an outstanding rehabilitation tool for patients that are deconditioned.
The Trikke CV is a stable platform as compared to the traditional two-wheeled bicycle and it offers a better rehab experience than the stationary or recumbent bicycle.
The trikke CV could replace the bicycle in rehab however I believe the Trikke is a “stand alone” rehab tool. The Trikke offers torso, upper, and lower-body conditioning, whereas the bicycle is geared to the lower extremities only.
It is fun to rehab with the Trikke CV. Time seems to fly by when you are riding the Trikke and before you know it you have spent 20 minutes to an hour in rehab!
