RiftonAdvancemen Chair

This new chair is designed for use with the M.O.V.E. Program with an

aim to encourage a child to develop sitting skill , not just maintain seating

posture. Sit leaning slightly forward from the hip encourages the child to

actively control his head and shoulder. Initially enough supports (forearm

supports, straps, footboard etc.) are provided to maintain a functional posture.

As the child progress with training, supports can be removed or repositioned

so as to free up the shoulder, arms and hands for eating, writing, playing and

communicating. The footboard can be slid back to practice sit-to-stand with

feet on the ground.

As a fully functional adaptive chair it is very adjustable (all tool free) to

suit a range of user and conditions. Seat depth and seat height are easily

adjusted. The backrest can move through a 15° range. The entire chair can

provide up to 20° forward and 5° backward tilting. The trunk support pads

with strap can be adjusted in width, angle and height. The L-bar swings out

of the way so a child can be seated and transferred easily. The arm prompts

can be fitted anywhere along the L-bar as required for arm positioning. The

groin strap can assist child in maintaining correct pelvic positioning. Options

include flat or contoured headrests, abductor, leg prompts, trunk support,

sandals and wedges, arm prompts. The Advancement Chair is available in
