I Need Help STANDING...

For people who are unable to stand independently or for whom standing in proper alignment is indicated, standing systems can be used for external support. Research has shown that there are many physiological and psychological benefits of a standing program. If you are considering a standing program for someone who has not stood before or who has been immobile for a period of time, then it is always best to contact a physician. Your physician will determine whether there are any contraindications and/or precautions to participating in a standing program.

Altimate Medical is a company who designs and manufacturers some of the best standing technology. They offer a unique sit to stand design and some stander models offer dynamic standing as well. The Altimate Medical website offers information for families, caretakers, and clinicians regarding the health benefits of standing. Visit www.easystand.com to access the information that they compiled on their website.

For children with certain clinical diagnoses, standers may be beneficial to help them achieve their goals. Always check with your child's therapists before using equipment to make sure that it is appropriate. Some of the clinical diagnoses that might include but are not limited to the following: Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy, Gross Motor Delay, Spina Bifida, and Traumatic Brain Injury.
