Description

Personalised backrest support for posture control and pressure relief

The Tension Adjustable Backrest (TAB) is a flexible solution designed to conform to the natural curvature of your spine. It fits most standard wheelchairs and includes at least seven Velcro tension straps behind a padded, breathable cover. Each strap can be independently tightened or loosened to provide targeted support where needed—improving comfort and sitting tolerance throughout the day.

Ideal for individuals with postural asymmetries, scoliosis, or prolonged seating needs, the TAB promotes healthier alignment while maintaining comfort and breathability.

FAQs

Q: Can I use this backrest on any wheelchair?
A: Yes. A TAB can be customised to any wheelchair.

Q: Why should I use a Tension Adjustable Backrest (TAB)?
A: A TAB provides better posture support and positioning for a user. This is because the tension in the backrest can be changed to fit your spinal curvature. This provides more comfort and support for you.

Q: Can I clean my TAB?
A: Yes. You need to remove the padded cover to expose the TAB. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the cover and the TAB. Let both layers dry completely before putting the cover back over the TAB
