Use & Benefits

Relieve pressure, regain comfort

If you rely heavily on your seating system, are unable to propel yourself, or can’t perform independent weight shifts, tilt-in-space technology can offer essential support. It’s especially beneficial for individuals with brain injuries, stroke, or severe disabilities, helping improve comfort, posture, and pressure management.

Redistributing pressure helps prevent pressure injuries.

Supports Digestive Health

Encourages Blood Flow

Tilting helps alleviate postural hypotension, while providing the ability to bring the client in to a completely upright position if Autonomic Dysreflexia is suspected.

Enhanced Comfort

Changing positions throughout the day reduces fatigue, discomfort, and stiffness, especially for those who spend extended time in their wheelchair.

Helps Lung Function

The ability to position and reposition correctly keeps the diaphragm open to help prevent complications for those at risk of respiratory complications.
