Evaluation
The right seating not only provides support but also allows for easy participation in daily activities. However, each individual has unique needs and it is crucial to have seats and backs tailored to accommodate spasticity. Not only does this improve comfort and function, but it also helps prevent injuries such as pressure injuries. With individually configured seats, you can feel confident in their seating, knowing that it has been specifically designed to meet their unique needs.
Our team conducts a thorough assessment of your physical and functional requirements, taking into account every detail in order to create a customized seating system that meets your unique needs.
Our hands-on physical evaluation is crucial in determining any interferences that may be impacting your ability to sit comfortably. By utilizing pressure mapping techniques, we are able to showcase the distribution of pressure across your cushion. This allows our team to identify areas of high and low pressure, which can then be addressed through necessary adjustments to provide you with the ultimate pressure relief.
Our dedicated team will guide you through the process, working closely with you to design and configure a personalized seating solution. With our expertise and attention to detail, we guarantee a comfortable and functional outcome, tailored specifically to you.
We know that each individual is unique and may require a different approach to achieve the best results. That's why we offer a trial period, where we work closely with you to find a customized solution that meets your specific needs. Our goal is to help you achieve optimal comfort and function, and we are dedicated to finding the perfect fit for you. Trust our expertise and let us improve your sitting experience.
cushions
Cushions play a crucial role in providing support and stability for the pelvis. In addition to that, cushions are an essential component in providing stability and distributing pressure throughout the body.
The positioning of the pelvis can have a significant impact on both the physical and emotional well-being of an individual. A well-aligned pelvis helps to maintain a healthy spine and prevents any strain on the neck, shoulders, and back. This can lead to improved mobility and reduce the risk of developing chronic pain.
That's why it's crucial to consider two effective methods of alleviating pressure: immersion and offloading.
Immersion involves sinking into a cushioned surface, which helps distribute the pressure under the sitting bones, relieving any discomfort. On the other hand, offloading is a technique known for removing pressure from the problematic area, also referred to as "forced isolation." While both methods are effective, it's important to determine which one best suits your individual needs and preferences.
backs
These supports are specifically designed to provide necessary support and relief for multiple areas of the back, such as the posterior trunk, spine, pelvis, and lateral trunk. With back supports, you can experience improved posture, reduced strain, and increased comfort while seated.
Some back supports are expertly crafted to seamlessly attach to chairs through the use of specialized hardware that is specifically designed for back tubes. This innovative system allows for quick and simple installation, making it easy for you to customize and adjust your support as needed.
Other back supportss are built dirertly into your chair. Our integrated supports are fully adjustable, ensuring that you can achieve the perfect fit for your body. This feature not only enhances overall comfort, but also provides optimum support for those with physical limitations or disabilities.
Posture Supports
Postural supports have been developed specifically for the purpose of impoving your posture and alleviating back pain. Most of these supports can easily be detached from the wheelchair at any time, providing flexibility and convenience for the user. Each support is individually prescribed based on specific needs, ensuring maximum effectiveness for each individual.
Various postural supports that we offer include:
- Lateral Supports (lateral pelvic, thigh, trunk)
- Medial knee Supports (“pommels”)
- Arm Supports
- Foot Supports
- Positioning Belts
