Measuring a stick
Measuring a stick:
This is not an exact science but there is a good rule of thumb to follow.
When holding the handle the wrist and hand should feel relaxed and comfortably supported, not strained or tense.
If the stick is too long , it can easily be shortened by sawing off the end and refitting the ferrule. Adding bits is not so easy !
Some aluminium sticks are folding or telescopic and can be adjusted in length; they are ideal if you are buying the stick as a gift and you are not sure of the size they need.
The stick should, generally, be held on the side opposite to the leg, foot or hip that has reduced function.
