Unlike passive standers, the active standing Glider product allows users to move the handles with their arms, which creates a reciprocal movement in the legs. The full range seat on the Glider stander has hinged break-away sections for each leg that allow full leg extension while standing. This advanced active stander enhances the medical benefits of standing and keeps the body in shape for medical breakthroughs. Numerous research studies suggest that use of an active standing frame can positively affect an individual’s health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned for Easier Transfers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Glider product features a wide concave seat and flip-up kneepads that make transfers easier.

Active standing will give you upper body strengthening and improved range of motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the best way to transfer into the Glider?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We have found that there are a number of ways people transfer into the Glider. One way is to bring your chair at a slight angle along side the Glider, secure the wheel locks on your chair, scoot up to the front of your chairs seat, place the inside leg into the footplate on the other side of the Glider and than transfer over. The leg should go right into place. Another way is to again come along side the Glider and transfer onto the Glider seat and then bring the legs back. We have learned that no one way is right and after a weeks use of the Glider the user tends to create their own technique.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altimate Medical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48662234562837,"sku":"ESGLIDER","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/4583\/1189\/files\/Glider-Large-1-1_fc2ade3e-46f9-4347-a8af-ae9fee5bba4f.jpg?v=1774610047","url":"https:\/\/especialneeds.com\/products\/easystand-glider","provider":"eSpecial Needs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
