Product Description
This orthosis is suitable in cars, planes, and trains plus office use or at home. The orthopaedic back support system reduces sitting pressure by approximately 10 % (up to 50 %).
The sitting orthosis vertical is featuring main characteristics:
As soon as pressure affects the Sitting Orthosis vertical, it is redirected in a load removing force. This is a drastic improvement for long car trips. Thrusts, which are created by unevenness in the road surface, are braced much better and the upper part of the body is repositioned in its previous posture after each thrust.
“The patent registered alignment of the ribbed surface functions (under pressure) as a lever, creating a force which is directed to the head. This force is (at an inclination of the backrest of about 10 to 15 degrees) equal to a decrease of bearing pressure of 10%, as measured by sitting pressure.
The load removal increases, the closer the backrest comes to the horizontal.”
The air chambers between the ribs in combination with the cover create a ventilation system, which provides an excellent heat and humidity regulation. This prevents heat accumulation which may lead to sweating.
