The Chest Plate Harness for the Genie V2 Standing Wheelchair is a specialized support system designed to provide firm anterior (front) support to the chest. This robust harness is ideal for users who require additional upper body stability, whether due to weakness, poor trunk control, or other conditions affecting posture.
The chest plate design of this harness distributes pressure evenly across the front of the chest, providing comprehensive support without creating uncomfortable pressure points. This can significantly improve posture, reduce fatigue, and enhance overall comfort during extended periods of use.
One of the key benefits of the Chest Plate Harness is its ability to prevent forward leaning or slumping. This is particularly important for users who may have difficulty maintaining an upright posture independently. By supporting the chest, the harness helps keep the spine in proper alignment, which can have positive effects on breathing, digestion, and overall comfort.
The harness is designed with both security and comfort in mind. It's typically made from durable, padded materials that provide firm support while remaining comfortable against the body. The edges are often padded or rolled to prevent any chafing or irritation during extended wear.
Adjustability is a crucial feature of the Chest Plate Harness. It can be easily modified to achieve the perfect fit and level of support for each individual user. This adjustability also allows the harness to accommodate changes in positioning throughout the day, such as when transitioning from sitting to standing using the Genie V2's standing function.
