Standing

The physical effects of standing programs have long been proven. Some of the changes noted in those on a standing program have been improvements in bone density, respiration, bladder and bowel function, digestion and social interaction. Individuals who are placed on a standing program are often able to perform functional tasks that they otherwise would not be capable of doing. We offer a variety of standing equipment in the Abilitations catalog. You will need to decide whether you are selecting equipment for standing only, or do you need a more multipositional stander. Is it for one child or multiple users? We highly recommend parents and schools to seek the advice of a physical or occupational therapist with experience in standing programs and positioning. Children must exhibit good control over areas that are not to be supported. Please make a note regarding dimensions stated in the catalog. As with all our products we stand by our unconditional, 1-year guarantee.
