The Knee Supports for the Genie V2 Standing Wheelchair are designed to provide targeted support and stability for your lower limbs. These adjustable supports help maintain proper leg positioning, reducing strain and improving overall comfort during extended periods of use.
One of the primary benefits of knee supports is their ability to prevent leg abduction (spreading apart) and adduction (moving inward). This is particularly beneficial for users who may have difficulty controlling leg movement due to various conditions. By keeping the legs in proper alignment, knee supports can help reduce pressure points and improve overall posture.
The knee supports are highly adjustable, allowing for personalized positioning to suit your individual needs. You can easily modify the height, angle, and pressure of the supports to find the most comfortable and effective position. This adjustability also means the supports can be adapted as your needs change over time.
In addition to providing support while seated, these knee supports play a crucial role during the standing function of your Genie V2. They help maintain proper leg alignment as you transition from sitting to standing, enhancing stability and safety during this movement.
The materials used in the knee supports are carefully selected for both comfort and durability. The padding is firm enough to provide proper support but soft enough to prevent discomfort during extended contact. The covering is typically made from a breathable, easy-to-clean material that helps manage temperature and moisture.
