Posture, Lumbar Support & Daily Comfort
Better Support for Sling-Back Wheelchairs
Standard sling upholstery can stretch or hammock over time, which may reduce support and affect seated posture. The Protekt Seat Back Cushion includes a stabilizing board insert to help create a firmer, more supportive back surface while still providing cushioned foam comfort.
This added structure can help users sit with improved alignment and greater comfort during daily wheelchair use.
Comfortable Lumbar Support
The high-density foam conforms to the user’s back to provide targeted support through the lumbar region. This makes the cushion a practical option for users who need extra lower-back comfort while seated for longer periods.
Secure Fit & Easy Use
Adjustable safety straps with buckle fastening help keep the back cushion positioned securely on the wheelchair. The stretch nylon cover is breathable for comfort and fluid resistant for easier everyday care, making the cushion practical for home, facility, or general seating use.
