lining that is gentle on the skin.

for users or caregivers to tighten the belt symmetrically from the middle,
promoting balanced pelvic support.

especially those with sling seat upholstery or solid seat bases. For best

with larger hands or limited dexterity, and they stay in place to help ensure
quick and secure adjustments.
