A Message from Dr. Birnbaum:
“Working every day as an Orthopedic Surgeon for the last decades of my life, I noticed that 99% of my patients often complained about added injuries or extra pain caused by the devices that were helping them walk, mainly because the devices commonly found on the market were outdated crutches or outdated walking assist devices with technology, that was not updated for the last sixty years. Every patient should have the right to recover with the latest innovations in the orthopedic field for an effective, fast and easy recovery. At Ergoactives, we provide the latest technology in the orthopedic field, aimed at improving people’s quality of life when it comes to surgery or injury recovery. We have gone above the competition, using a combination of an ergonomic all-around design with shock absorption technology. This has created a new trend in orthopedic recovery, in which patients are finally happy after an injury or surgery, and they truly feel comfortable with our devices. All of the company’s products have come to light following a model of total quality control, ensuring the best quality of our products. All of our devices take into account the anatomy of the body’s articulations, which are implemented in the actual devices. This process ensures that the patient or the end-user of our products feels safe, free of secondary injuries, with the proper support and recovery in a quick and comfortable manner.”

Improved posture- Tucane helps to reduce spinal injuries/ back pain by providing the user with a proper posture just by walking with the cane. Spring Automatic Impulse - In the handle of the Tucane, Ergoactives has placed an automatic spring system technology that provides an impulse to the cane, pushing it forward as the user lifts the cane. Just by having the cane close and at the same level of your hip, the user of the Tucane has the ability to have their back straight while they walk with the cane, and the spring system technology will always be pushing the cane forward. The user only needs to lift the cane for the spring to be activated in order to push the whole cane forward. Walking Support - With its spring mechanism located on the handle of the Tucane, this cane system is propelled as the user lifts the cane, providing a feeling that the cane is walking automatically as the user lifts it from the ground. Vibration Absorption - The grip of the Tucane absorbs the vibration from the cane’s impact with the ground.
