The 3rd course in our Muscle Tone, Tone, Management and Dynamic Seating Intervention presents the use of Dynamic Seating in people with increased muscle tone and movement disorders. Dynamic Seating moves in response to client movement, diffusing forces and protecting the client from injury and the equipment from loss of adjustment and breakage.
Seating Dynamics offers optional quick-release removable mounting hardware so that the head support can be easily removed for transfers, folding of equipment, and more.
The Lateral Swing-Away Adapter is compatible with Stealth Products’ Swing-Away hardware. This swing-away hardware supports pads for postural support at the side of the head. The hardware can also be used to mount switches by the side of the head.
The Sub-Occipital Pad Adaptor is compatible with several Sub-Occipital pads. These pads provide additional support at the posterior base of the skull and reduce neck hyperextension.
The Seating Dynamics Static Head Support is designed to replace standard head support hardware with highly adjustable and durable hardware that positions head pads precisely where needed without loss of alignment.
The Single Axis version moves posteriorly in response to client forces.
The Multi Axis version captures both posterior and rotational movement.
The Seating Dynamics’ Dynamic Head Support Hardware allows neck extension, diffusing and absorbing force to protect the client, protect the hardware, and reduce overall extensor tone. The Single Axis version moves posteriorly and the Multi Axis version captures both posterior and rotational movement.
