Beige canvas, lined with flannel. 2 removable medial and lateral stays. Foam-padded tongue with 2 removable tongue stays. Prevents excessive inversion/eversion movement. Sized by shoe size.

Ideal for the more physically involved individuals who do have head/trunk control, but may need to compensate for uneven weight distribution or lateral rotation. Tendencies toward lateral rotation are minimized by placing the side pads, which add flotation, in various positions. Front chest pad provides additional lift and is also removable. Use the crotch strap to keep the Dolphin from riding up while swimming.

Assura 2-piece offers a patented security ring with just a click to lock and unlock. When the system is locked, the pouch is safely and securely fastened to the barrier. The spiral-structure adhesive provides optimal adhesion and superior skin protection. The soft front makes the bag even more discreet. Efficient filter prevents odor.

These are for users who need support of the head, trunk, and pelvis in order to both develop an upright sitting posture and align the head and trunk. Two sizes are available. Each is highly adjustable and available with casters.

The chair has a firm, padded insert that converts the V-shaped back into a three-sided winged back. This removable insert provides support along the spine and gives the child better spinal extension thus giving greater freedom of the head and eyes for scanning and attending. As the child develops independent head movements and sitting postural control, the head support can be removed so the child can practice linking visual pursuit and attention with arm and hand movements. Because of the easy adjustments, it is possible to use or remove these pieces as the child's needs for postural control change within the day or over longer periods.

The seat can be raised so a child can be positioned with the hips and knees flexed or lowered to promote long leg sitting. The depth-adjustable and removable abductor can be positioned in front of the seat, at the distal part of the femurs, to maintain hip abduction with either knee flexion or extension. If the 2" seat belt is positioned across the hips, it aids pelvic stability.

The adjustable tray which is height and depth adjustable encourages the child to bring the hands forward to explore and manipulate toys.
