The ultimate purpose of physical therapy (PT) in medical rehabilitation is to acquire the ability oflocomotion activity by means of walking motion. Therefore, it is very important for the patients with theimpairment of movement to improve their movemant function. But some of the patients are difficultyaquiring the standing posture and walking motion despite their efforts and PT. However if they could not stand and walk independently, we have another measure to do with it. That is,we can apply the walking apparatus. By applying those like canes or walkers, they could stand and walk.Therefore these walking apparatus are considered for the patients as the necessities and for the PT as thesymbol of our technique. In this paper, I want to represent the concept of locomotion activity, the conditions of standing andwalking, and the characteristics of the walking apparatus. I also want to show the relationship of motorability and the function of the walking apparatus.
