Today let’s explore the adaptable trunk support options the Rifton Stander offers, designed to cater to the unique needs of children dealing with postural asymmetries such as kyphosis or scoliosis.
Whether in prone or supine positions, the Rifton Stander provides a spectrum of trunk control options, ensuring personalized support. Choose from the butterfly harness, rotation-control, or regular trunk and hip straps. Tailor the Stander precisely to the child’s height by adjusting the trunk height. With swing away and fully adjustable trunk laterals, you have the freedom to position them where needed. Choose between two positions for lateral placement. This feature isn’t just about convenience, it’s about addressing specific concerns like scoliosis management. The laterals can be adjusted slightly in height by rotating them up or down and for depth, by sliding in and out for larger Rifton Standers (size two and above).
Additional upper trunk and head support options are available. These enhancements ensure a better fit for children with a wide range of needs and abilities. The Rifton Stander addresses forward head posture and kyphosis with easy in-and-out adjustments. Fine-tune the headrest laterals by adjusting them in and out as well as altering their height. This level of customization ensures optimal head support for each individual.
The Rifton Stander’s trunk support options aren’t just about support; they’re about meeting individual needs, providing comfort, and enhancing the overall experience for children dealing with postural asymmetries.
