Back Supports

Light-Bulb-BlueFACT: Back supports  are typically made from a combination of durable and lightweight materials such as moulded aluminium, foam, air cells, and breathable fabrics. 

Adjustable to accommodate different body shapes and sizes, some back supports can also have head supports and lateral trunk supports attached to them.

Goal: A back support should promote spinal alignment and reduce the risk of developing pressure injuries or discomfort while using a wheelchair.

Foam

Not all foam is alike! Strategically layering different types of High Resiliency (HR) quality foam, these cushions provide a stable base, have the ability to withstand compression over time and provide immersion for the individual’s body.

Air: Flowing

ROHO® offers a unique air cell design that allows air to flow between the cells providing pressure redistribution and stability. The concept of DRY FLOATATION® is the capability of the cushion to conform and adapt to the body’s shape, mimicking the pressure redistribution properties of water. ROHO cushions let you in, match your shape, move with you and work with you (not against you).

Hybrid: Foam + Air 

Hybrid cushions are a combination of foam and air. Typically, a High Resiliency (HR) foam base is used as the foundation, providing the shape and contours of the cushion. Then flowing or non-flowing air can be placed in high risk areas to support the management of skin breakdown.

Seating & Positioning Accessories

Light-Bulb-BlueFACT: Head supports, lateral trunk supports, and arm and leg accessories, commonly referred to as wheelchair accessories, can play a crucial role in enhancing comfort, stability, and positioning.  

BodiLink® offers: 

  • Head supports that are compatible on virtually any power or manual wheelchair and offer a full range of adjustability and positioning.  
  • Lateral trunk supports are anatomically designed and have adjustable features and contours 
  • Lateral pelvic/thigh supports offer multiple configurations and adjustability for leg, hip and knee positioning.  
Permobil believes in the science and evidence that support our innovations. Transparency is necessary to gain your trust in our products when selecting individual seating and mobility solutions.
