Description
The Asiento Posture Support System is thoughtfully designed for children, teenagers, and adults with moderate to complex postural needs. It aims to enhance body symmetry and overall posture, leading to meaningful improvements in areas such as eye contact, communication, breathing, eating, interaction, and participation in play or daily activities. Developed in collaboration with clinical professionals, Asiento helps users achieve their full potential by promoting comfort, self-esteem, and well-being.
Highly adjustable, the system delivers excellent clinical outcomes without sacrificing usability. Its robust construction features a central support column to which all accessories securely attach, ensuring stability and long-term durability. For users who benefit from sensory or physical feedback, the dynamic backrest provides pressure-adjustable movement, making Asiento a versatile and supportive seating solution.
