Wheelchair Seating & Mobility

At Adler Therapy Group, we provide specialized evaluations to determine the individualized wheelchair and mobility needs of each client. Whether due to birth injury, developmental delay, traumatic injury, illness, or physical debilitation, some individuals require customized mobility equipment to move safely and efficiently.

Dedicated Wheelchair Clinic

Our dedicated Wheelchair Seating & Mobility Clinic serves clients of all ages, helping them find wheelchair and seating systems that enhance their mobility, ensure optimal positioning, and promote comfort. Our goal is to support every individual in fully participating in daily activities and living as independently as possible.

Posture Evaluation & Custom Seating

Our posture evaluation assesses the flexibility of postural impairments to determine the most effective mobility solutions. Based on the results, we recommend appropriate seating system options designed to improve balance, enhance posture, and support overall comfort. Precise measurements are taken to ensure that both the wheelchair and seating system are tailored to fit the individual’s unique needs.

Comprehensive Wheelchair Training

Our wheelchair training program is designed to help individuals optimize mobility across various environments. We provide hands-on practice with diverse terrain, ensuring users can confidently navigate obstacles commonly encountered in daily life. Our training areas include grass, gravel, sloped sidewalks, curb cuts, and curbs of multiple heights, allowing for real-world skill development in a safe and supportive setting.

Pressure Mapping Evaluation

Our pressure mapping evaluation helps determine the most suitable wheelchair cushion and backrest to ensure optimal pressure distribution. This advanced assessment tool identifies areas at the highest risk for skin breakdown, providing valuable insights to guide the selection of a customized cushion and seating system. By effectively redistributing pressure, we enhance comfort, promote skin integrity, and support long-term mobility needs.
