Rediscover your freedom in a standing position.

The ability to stand up promotes independence, benefits health and improves general well-being. You’ll achieve a near-natural position that improves your balance and your lifestyle.

"LifeStand®" is, we believe, the most innovative generation of standing wheelchairs. It has been thoroughly researched and developed to aid people who are wheelchair-bound.

If that is your situation, "LifeStand®" will put you back into the most natural position - standing up.

PERSONAL CONTROLNow standing is done easily and independently in the convenience of your own home, in your workplace or in any social setting. With LifeStand it is no longer necessary to be constrained to the use of stationary devices or tilt tables at rehabilitation centers. You now can have all the health benefits and the opportunity to take personal control.
Rediscover a multitude of activities while in the standing position such as: shaking hands with a friend, hugging someone you love, talking with someone eye to eye, reaching higher shelves, doing odd jobs…and your own personal wish list. Allow the impossible to once again become natural and accessible with LifeStand.

EFFORTLESS STANDING
The ease in which LifeStand products move from sitting to standing position is instantly understood once you have actually experienced this yourself. To gain the greatest possible benefits of standing, it is important that the chair you choose is used consistently. Therefore, the thing to keep in mind when choosing a chair is ease of use. A device that an individual can use independently would be the optimal choice. If independent use is not an option, the method of lifting a person to a standing position must be considered. The LifeStand wheelchairs are easy to use independently and with assistance from a caregiver or with an optional power assist unit.

HEALTH BENEFITS
Our bodies are made to stand. We believe that standing will help you feel better, look better and improve your self-image. Everyone should stand regularly. To maximize the benefits that the upright position brings to your health, you should alternate between short periods of standing and sitting. You will experience improvements in the following areas:
  • Physical balance and psychological well-being
  • Digestion
  • Reduction of flatulence and improved bowel function
  • Better circulation of the blood
  • Reduced wasting of the muscles
  • Improved muscle tone
  • Reduced loss of calcium from the bones and lower risk of osteoporosis
  • Improved vesicular and renal function
  • Prevention and healing of decubitus sores
  • A reduction in the daily number of transfers


PRESCRIPTION
A medical prescription is recommended. We recommend that you have physiotherapy to gradually accustom your body to the standing position before you start using the LifeStand on a daily basis.
