Hi,
I am a physical therpapist and licensed Orthotist in WA. I see
primarily pediatrics between birth to 3, with about 30 % of population
older children up to 18. What I am looking for is an ergonomically
correct chair to cast my kids in. We currently are using an adult size
chair with a foam insert; this chair is an old style office chair which
encloses the child and the foam assists with stability and tone. I then
sit on a child's size chair and lean over. My back and legs are tired!!
Anyone out there have a solution?? Hydroulic? Has onyone custom
fabricated a chari for this very purpose?? I appreciate your help!
