How To Use a Flexible Sock Applicator

First, slide the sock onto the sock holder. Once in place, drop the sock holder to the floor and slide your foot through the opening, pulling on the two tabs until the sock is in place. The terry cloth lining will hold the sock firmly until it is on the foot. After this, the applicator should slide out easily. Though it may take some practice, using a sock aid can be a much easier alternative for individuals with limited mobility.

Sock Aids for People with Arthritis

Many individuals suffering with Arthritis will know that discomfort in your hips and knees can make simple things, such as putting a pair of socks on, overly difficult and painful. Painful joints may prevent you from bending down to reach your feet.

With the Terry Cloth Aid, you can put on your socks whilst in a comfortable seated position. If hand or finger discomfort is a particular issue for you, this product permits one-handed application via the two pulling tabs, helping to limit pain. Simple assistance from the Sock Aid can make daily life with Arthritis just that little bit easier.
