Do contemporary wheelchairs restrict your life? Do wheelchairs cramp your posture, make you fatter and give you 'wheelchair shoulders'? Have 10 years of wheelchair use done you more harm than the actual cause of your handicap itself? Riding in a wheelchair can become less demanding, less painful and more enjoyable. It will become possible to ride in a wheelchair pain-free, injury-free, without deformation and comfortably.
Slouching posture
Wheelchair users often sit bent forward and slumped in their seats. This compressed posture places great pressure on the lungs and intestines. It restricts proper breathing. You are fighting against yourself.
How to do it differently!
O4 Wheelchairs and a number of 'creative thinkers' have found a solution for this: the health wheelchair. This can give performance not seen anywhere in the world before, with record low energy consumption of less than 120 Watts.
Thanks to the revolutionary dynamic tip control, the wheelchair user is completely in balance while moving and as a result, rides with a smooth flow. With the dynamic tip control, you automatically push the limits for riding and manoeuvring as lightly as possible. You make gravity your ally and the free fall backwards is no longer noticeable and secured by a spring.
