Understanding Tilt-in-Space Technology
Unlike standard recline wheelchairs, tilt-in-space chairs move the entire seat and backrest together as one unit. This provides:
Pressure Management
Weight shifts from pelvis to back without changing your seated position, crucial for preventing pressure injuries during extended use.
No Shearing Forces
Your body stays in the same position relative to the chair, protecting skin integrity - especially important for users with fragile skin.
Maintains Hip Angle
Critical for users with contractures, limited hip flexibility, or those who need consistent positioning for medical reasons.
Easier Caregiving
Stable positioning makes transfers, personal care, and feeding safer and more manageable for carers.
Better Function
Improved head alignment supports swallowing, breathing, and visual engagement with surroundings.
