Prone Standers

Prone standers are used as therapy equipment to promote weight bearing through the legs and sometimes the arms. When using a prone stander as special needs equipment, the supports are against the belly. These standers are special needs equipment angled in a gravity dependent position. Prone standers are therapy equipment that require good head strength and at least fair trunk strength. It is best if users have a fairly symmetrical spine and full hip extension.
