Symmetry Solid Seat Stander and Positioning System

Product Overview:

The Symmetry Stander is a solid seat standing system with a padded seat and an optional low or high back for extra support and comfort. The standing frame is easy to transfer into and helps provide proper posture and support while the user is standing or sitting, or during transition. The seat slides to eliminate shearing. The Symmetry Stander's open frame allows better access to the frame during transfers, even when a lifting device is needed. Choose from youth or adult designs.

Sizes from Youth to Adult: Symmetry Youth covers the size ranges from 3' 6" through 5' 6" in height. Symmetry Adult covers the size ranges from 5' through 6' 5" in height.

The Symmetry's ability to put the body in correct full upright weight bearing and achieve mild hyperextension at the hips while reducing the negative effects of shear is unique to standing systems and is the key to correct standing. This allows adjustment of the standing position for maximum stretch and a progressive standing program.
This achievement has evolved through the Symmetry's unique design principles.

Reasons to Stand in Symmetry:

Over-Center Seat Technology & Shear Reduction
Sliding-Seat Technology: Reduces the effect of shear as the body moves from sitting to standing while minimizing unwanted postures.
Adjustable Sliding Back: Unique back adjustment system allows precise back movement with the client keeping all support surfaces in proper alignment from sitting to standing.

See what happens to the support surfaces in a typical solid seat stander. As the body moves, shear occurs and contact surface decreases increasing areas of pressure. Positioning supports move out of position and become non-functional.

Symmetry eliminates the effects of shear built into other solid seat standing systems.

How many degrees does the swivel seat turn?

Answer: The Symmetry Youth and Symmetry Adult Standers go to 90 degrees (sideways, normally the opposite direction of the pump installation) and lock in that position and the forward-facing position. They can go a little further, but it will not lock in any other position besides forward and 90 degrees to the side. Additionally, the Symmetry will not go to 180 degrees (facing backward) as the seat frame hits the release mechanism if you try to swivel all the way to the back.
