Spex Biangular Swing-Away Lateral Trunk Support
The Spex Axial Biangular lateral trunk support has been designed to provide superior trunk positioning and improved pressure distribution for individuals who present with scoliosis and/or other complex trunk asymmetries observed on the frontal plane. Its system comprises a pivot-hinge within the lateral pads which allows for intricate positioning for both concave and convex deviations as it adjusts to different body presentations. Together with the Axial technology and superior foam padding finish, the Biangular lateral support ensures optimum fitting to address asymmetric body shapes, and provides excellent pressure distribution through a wider surface area to optimise comfort.
The Spex Biangular Lateral Trunk Support is ideals for individuals who:
- Presents with scoliosis and/or other trunk asymmetries featuring increased lateral flexion of the trunk.
- Requires superior surface contact area and increased pressure distribution to accommodate lateral trunk deviations – for both concave and convex asymmetries
- Requires gradual correction of trunk asymmetries towards midline
