Proximal stability is the starting point to postural control. The 3A Back Support is a tool meeting your positioning targets, based on the users individual abilities and body shape. To seek ability and improving mobility and activity. This is what we call Ability Based Seating™.

Thank you for shaping up!

Features

Shape Up

Poor posture takes out all of our energy. To cope with being active, being seated in a wheelchair requires proper back support. With the 3A back support, you can customise the shape and support directly, with the user positioned in the wheelchair. Let´s shape up!

Achieving proximal stability is core

Creating a sufficient pelvic support is the first step towards proximal stability. The seat to back angle and lower back straps are the core settings to stabilize the pelvis.

Sitting tolerance

The 3A back support offers adjustments for supportive, well-balanced back support. It is covered by a resilient high-density foam cover that evens the pressure. No peak pressure on sensitive zones – an important condition for improving the user´s sitting tolerance over time.

Ability Based Seating

By an ability based approach we seek to strengthen the user´s abilities. Providing a supportive position in balance, improves the activity level. Ability is precious. Use it or lose it. Enable it and improve it.
