wheelchairs overview
[close]
Choosing the correct wheelchair is one of the most important factors in keeping yourself mobile and comfortable - while at the same time reducing the risk of developing complications such as pressure sores, overuse injuries and deformities resulting from poor positioning. The chair market is becoming increasingly specialised, and costly at the same time. Treated carefully, the process of selecting an appropriate product will avoid costly and damaging mistakes.
We understand that the end-users are often not in the best position to make properly informed decisions, and we have invested heavily in perfecting a selection methodology that takes into account the various critical factors, and recognises where additional expert input may be needed.
This page is an index of the detail of our various products and ranges. Should you need help in choosing a chair, please browse through our selection process or contact us for some personalised advice PLEASE NOTE, that the products are presented in catalogue format, ordered by manufacturer and range. No representation is made of the suitability of a particular chair for a user's unique condition.
