Features

How to shape Up

Poor posture takes out all of our energy. To cope with being active, being seated in a wheelchair requires proper back support. Learn more about how to use the Cross 3A back settings in the following pages. 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 stabilise the pelvis.

Sitting tolerance

The Cross 3A back support offers adjustments for a supportive well balanced back support. It is covered by a resilient high density foam cover which evens outs 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.
