Proper wheelchair posture can lead to greater independence and improved mobility.
- Sit upright with shoulders back — this helps with improved shoulder mobility and reduced pain
- Align with the middle of the backrest without leaning to one side — this leads in improved stability and a decrease in falls risk
- Sit at a 90 degree angle at hips between your trunk and thighs — this is the foundation for good posture, better respiration and better digestion
