Medical Benefits |
- Reducing Contractures and Spasticity: Extension of the upper body and alignment of the hip assists in delaying skeletal deformities, provides knee range of motion and reduces spasticity, which can contribute to safer transfers and improved positioning in the wheelchair.
- Enhancing Blood Flow: Standing upright, changing position in chair, removes constrictions to circulation created when sitting, also helps in reducing edema.
- Breathing Easier: When standing, the chest cavity is expanded, making diaphragmatic movements and breathing easier. In turn, improved breathing often helps a person’s ability to communicate by making speaking easier.
- Stronger and Straighter Bones: Weight bearing from standing has shown to be effective in improving bone mineral density.
- Improving Bladder/Bowel Function: Risk of bladder infection is decreased as it makes it easier to empty the bladder completely.
- Enabling Participation: Seat elevating helps the user make eye contact while the anterior tilt function helps the user reach further forward for objects. Small improvements like these make participating easier, improving self-confidence and further increasing the desire to take part in daily life as much as possible.
- Reducing Risk of Pressure Ulcers: Offers regular pressure relief and improves sitting tolerance for those areas active when sitting or lying down.
- Safer Transfer: Enables safe transfers – and functional access forward – with the help of seat elevating and anterior tilt.
