Zygo Deep Contour Mid Back Support

Enabling freedom without compromising posture and comfort, Zygo is a back support with inbuilt laterals designed for full-time self-propelling wheelchair users. Active wheelchair users don’t want to be held back – they want the freedom to go places and do amazing things.

Zygo back support systems are lightweight, easily adjustable, easy to install and remove, more breathable and more personalised. Zygo back support systems give you comfort, flexibility, personalisation, and freedom to move – enabling you to go places, achieve more, and be whoever you want to be. The back support is an integral wheelchair component for appropriate seating position and trunk support. It plays an important role in increasing comfort and function for wheelchair users. Sitting over extended periods of time can cause discomfort and accelerate the development of spinal deformities.

A mid-height shell with a supportive deep contour provides:
– Support for the pelvis, lumbar spine and thoracic spine

– Different height options allow the shell to reach the mid-thoracic or upper-thoracic region
