The Chair Head Side Supports are designed to help patients who lean to the side when sitting. This can be the start of bad posture and may even be dangerous. They can be used next to the chest or next to the head, supporting the head to prevent shoulder movement. When someone starts to lean, they may also roll forward, so using the Chair Head Side Supports can help prevent this.
Key Features
- Available in two options: Small triangular wedges and Large curved wedges.
- The large curved wedge is generally used for larger individuals, while smaller individuals also find it very supportive as it hugs the body.
- Easy to adjust for a close fit to the patient.
- Band length: 1.45m / 4'9", with split ends for versatile placement.
Additional Information
The Side Supports can also be fitted lower down the chair next to either the patient's shoulders or chest, depending on the size of the patient and their chair. If you need some extra length around a chair, the Extension Straps are sold in a set of 2 and add an extra 50cm / 20" to the length.
