ThevoSleepingStar A
The original ThevoSleepingStar support surface has wing suspensions
to provide tiny movement impulses that calm children as they are in
bed. The “active” A model additionally provides sensory support by
providing the movement for children who cannot supply movement
themselves. Choose Wave, Rotation, Inclined Plane or Static from the
movement “menu” to reduce
pressure, pain and spasms and
improve quality of sleep. The
quiet system ensures operation
without disturbing the child’s
rest.
JUNIOR Cushions & Back Supports
Kids are not just miniature adults, which is why VARILITE used
anthropometric data to create its JUNIOR line of seat cushions
and back supports for active users. Seat cushions are available in a
10x10" size using Air-Foam Floatation. Back supports come in Mid
or Deep configurations in
a 10" size that fits chairs
measuring 9" to 11". Backs
use Air-Foam Floatation with
pediatric-specific VariLock
hardware.

An ATP & Clinician Best Pick of 2016:
Love the
positioning it
provides for our
little ones. It
grows, it tilts and
reclines, it’s crash tested, and most importantly it is therapist and
parent liked and approved!

Easystand
Zing MPS
An ATP & Clinician Best Pick of 2016:
This stander is great with
the early intervention
population. It is easy to put
the child into it in supine
and then in one movement,
without having to
move hardware, tray, etc.,
you can go into prone. This
makes it easier to place the
child into the stander. Also, it is the only stander this small that has
the ability to abduct each hip up to 30°. As hip abduction has been
shown to be protective for hip dislocation risk, this is a real plus!

An ATP & Clinician Best Pick of 2015:
EasyStand has always led the industry when it comes to separate standing devices. Not only is the EasyStand Zing MPS a great-looking stander…it offers so much flexibility that many users will be able to benefit from its fantastic, well-thought-out features. One of my favorite things about this stander is that it allows the client to stand in up to 30° of hip abduction, which is supported in the research to promote hip alignment, stability and health. All adjustments are unilateral and can accommodate asymmetries in the client’s lower-extremity range of motion as well. This stander can also be used as a supine, upright or prone stander without any cumbersome and time-consuming adjustment to the stander. It is an ideal solution for small children who need to stand for health and function, as the size 1 unit can support children from infancy up to 44” and 70 lbs. Way to go, EasyStand…this stander is a slam dunk!

Ki Mobility
Little Wave Flip
By integrating styling elements seen in strollers — and 500+ color combinations! — this new tilt-in-space chair seeks to facilitate the first step toward early-intervention positioning. Because the Flip has fewer parts than other tilt chairs, its seat height, depth and width are easy to change as the child grows. A tube-in-tube seat rail design is modular so changes can be made without replacing parts. The raised pivot point on the folding back allows more seating to remain on the chair when it’s folded.
An ATP & Clinician Best Pick of 2016:
A great transition for the kiddos and their parents who still want a
stroller concept, but have outgrown the appropriateness of a rehab
stroller. Can put any seating on it, and love the way it folds!
