Features
Rifton activity chair with hi-lo base - Medium has revolutionized adaptive seating and it is ultimate in classroom and home. The activity chair is versatile, adaptable, and durable.

A wide range of optional accessories is available to create an adaptive chair providing customized active seating for clients - whether in early intervention, school, home, rehab, or day hab - from the client with autism to one with more involved physical challenges such as cerebral palsy.
Features:
Spring option - The optional seat and backrest springs on the Rifton activity chair standard base (and the backrest spring in the hi/lo base) allow for calming through self-generated motion - ideal for clients with autism.

Hi/lo base foot pump - The medium hi/lo base is height-adjustable via a foot pump. The foot pump allows you to lower the client in the chair until his or her feet are on the floor, or raise it to a 32" high table. The chair's height can also be easily set for lateral transfers.
