The trunk support is attached to the chair with straps that wrap

behind the seat back and connect with Velcro®. Fig.43

Support is achieved by pulling each triangular flap toward the

appropriate side, then securing it by wrapping the strap around

the frame and attaching with Velcro®. The two flaps can also be

wrapped around the user’s torso and joined in the middle.

Convaid offers a wide variety of supports to help properly position the user.

Note: Convaid’s chairs provide a semi-contour fit around the body.

The user must be fitted correctly into the chair to achieve

optimal posture and comfort.
