Q. Who is the Monoflex™ trunk support designed for?
A. Monoflex™ is ideal for users with upper body instability, weak trunk
control, or conditions like neuromuscular weakness, dysphagia, or postural
collapse. It offers dynamic chest and abdominal support without restricting arm
movement.
Q. What’s the difference between Underarm Release and Center-Release options?
A. Underarm Release (One-Piece): Offers more stretch and easier application
for caregivers. Center-Release (Two-Piece): Features a front buckle, ideal for
independent users or when used with lateral trunk supports.
Q. Will it work with my wheelchair or seating system?
A. Monoflex™ offers versatile mounting options compatible with both solid
backrests and flexible fabric seating systems, making it easy to integrate into
most wheelchair setups.
Q. Is it safe to use without a pelvic support belt?
A. For safety and proper posture, Bodypoint strongly recommends using a
pelvic support belt with any anterior trunk support to prevent sliding and
maintain proper positioning.
Q. What makes the Monoflex™ more effective than standard chest belts?
A. Its double-tapered, stretch-controlling padding and swivel buckle system
provide balanced, dynamic support that adapts to movement—ideal for managing
strong spastic tone or respiratory needs while preserving comfort and mobility.
