Good posture explained:

Good posture means having the correct body alignment and this is important for everyone but especially so for wheelchair users. The head should be balanced over the spine with the shoulders preferably tilted back behind the hips. In turn the spine should be held as much as possible in a natural S position. It may not always be possible to achieve this perfect postural position while seated so it is vital to have adequate support within your wheelchair design in order to avoid discomfort and injury. Whether your chair is a transit wheelchair or a self-propelled wheelchair, the best option can often be found in lightweight wheelchairs, particularly if self-propelling. The S Ergo seating is designed to give this good posture, come and try for yourself.
