How to Use Parallel Bars for Remedial Physiotherapy

• These bars can be used fixed to the floor, or used free standing, but for patient safety we strongly recommend using 8mm floor fixings installed by a qualified engineer. Extra vigilance from medical professionals is required when they are used when not fixed to the floor.
• In order to adjust the height of these parallel bars, insert the provided metal clips at the required height. For storage purposes, remove the clips and lower the hand rail.
• No sterilisation is required but bars should be wiped over between users with a mild detergent solution or surface disinfectant to avoid cross contamination.
• Do not use or store the bars in a damp environment. Have the bars checked annually by a competent engineer.
