Standing
For people who are dependent on a wheelchair, being upright in a standing position can help prevent pressure sores, improve circulation and range of motion and, for some, reduce spasms and contractions.
Standing wheelchairs act as normal manual chairs but also help the rider rise to a standing position; some manual chairs come with a power assist to activate the rising mechanism. Power chairs made by Topmedi also allow the user to rise to a standing position.
