Documented effect
of Netti Dynamic System
Netti by Alu Rehab commissioned an independent therapist (internationally recognized in the field of seating and positioning in a wheelchair) to test the patented dynamic solutions in use. The study consisted of an evaluation after the first use (app. 3 months) and a later evaluation after 3-6 months in which the former seating situation is compared to the goals and the results of the current situation.
The results of the study showed that the use of a Netti Dynamic chair has direct positive impact on the user – as a side effect we also see beneficial effects for the dealer, care giver and family such as:
Health
