Tilt and recline systems to assist with posture and pressure relief
Elevating leg rests to reduce swelling and improve comfort
Power mobility options for those with limited strength or endurance
Custom back supports and cushions to protect skin and support spinal alignment

Neuromuscular or orthopedic conditions
Cerebral palsy, ALS, MS, or Parkinson’s disease
