Product Overview:

While sitting upright, a major portion of your body weight is placed on your lower back, buttocks, and back of thighs. This can be extremely uncomfortable for patients who spend a significant amount of time in a wheelchair and/or are unable to easily reposition themselves. A tilt-in-space wheelchair provides pressure relief by redistributing your body weight in a unique position. This tilt in space wheelchair is ideal for someone with a spinal cord injury (SCI), cerebral palsy, or muscle disease. Additionally, this wheelchair provides more health benefits for various conditions, such as orthostatic hypotension (dizziness), scoliosis, kyphosis, edema, and more.
