Advanced Comfort and Unmatched Attendant Safety For individuals with complex postural needs, a standard wheelchair is often not enough. True comfort…
Tilt-in-space wheelchairs feature specialized seating systems that tilt the entire seat and backrest assembly as a unit, maintaining the seat-to-back angle while redistributing pressure and improving positioning. These therapeutic wheelchairs provide essential pressure relief, postural support, and comfort for users with complex seating needs.
Key features include tilt mechanisms allowing 0-45 degrees of recline while maintaining hip and knee angles, pressure-relieving cushion systems, and adjustable headrests with lateral supports. Tilt functionality helps prevent pressure ulcers by redistributing weight from sitting bones to back and thighs. Weight capacities range from 18 to 30 stone depending on frame specification.
Choose from manual tilt wheelchairs with caregiver-operated tilt levers, powered tilt variants with electric actuators controlled by attendant or user, or combination tilt-recline systems offering both functions independently. Seating widths range from 14 to 22 inches with custom sizing available for complex needs.
Advanced positioning features include adjustable seat depth, back height, footrest angle, and armrest height for optimal postural support. Many models include swing-away legrests, tension-adjustable backrests, and modular seating components. Compatible with specialist cushions, lateral supports, and chest harnesses for enhanced positioning and safety.
