I have an 57 year old individual with scoliosis and DJD who works at her computer on a daily basis that is not that open to wear a custom TLSO full time. This individual has gradually experienced increased discomfort over the years.

I wedged her in a chair to create a three point pressure system, and to the patient's surprise she felt dramatic relief.

My question is has anyone heard of custom molded seats to be used in a chair? I have heard of and seen custom molded wheelchairs, but do not know where they are manufactured.

Thank you,
Jason Silke CPO
