Explore the Spex Seating range with a particular focus on cushions, back supports, head supports, and lateral trunk positioning supports. The aim is to learn their application to wheelchair postural asymmetries, understand the difference between the styles, and develop confidence in working with the products.
Introducing the Shaperator – a ground breaking platform that helps therapists and complex seating representatives translate their MAT findings to Spex Seating Products. You will learn how to use the software to choose, configure and visualise wheelchair seating and how to share them with your product specialist for an effective trial.
The session will close with applying your learnings throughout the day to getting on the tools and setting up a seating system on a wheelchair base.
