R82 Rabbit Up Pediatric Prone Stander

The R82 Rabbit Up is a truly adaptable stander. It is secure, reliable and adjustable for all your standing needs while also offering the independence to explore using the optional driving, quick release wheels. The Rabbit Up enables the child to be an active participant at eye level, whilst stimulating senses and providing the child with more independence.

Rabbit Up can be used at home, in institutions or at school. Participation is important for development and by using the Rabbit Up the child can be at eye level with peers, encouraging further participation. Adopting the standing position allows the child to gain new perspectives on their surroundings and apply alternative loads on their bones, joints and muscles, providing the possibilities to develop new skills.

Rabbit Up is not just a standing frame. When used with the quick release driving wheels the Rabbit Up enables the user to join in even further. It also provides a means of exercise for the user and promotes development of motor skills and muscle function in the upper extremities.

The Rabbit Up comes in four sizes and is suitable for children between the age of 1 to 18 years. Not all children are alike - that is why it is important to use the measuring guide to find the correct size for your child.

Key Benefits

• Promotes bone density and muscle development — Regular supported standing helps build bone strength, improve muscle tone, and reduce the risk of osteoporosis in children with limited mobility.
• Supports digestive and respiratory health — Upright positioning aids digestion, bowel function, and lung capacity — benefits that go far beyond mobility alone.
• Improves hip development — Weight-bearing standing is clinically recommended to support healthy hip formation in children with cerebral palsy and similar conditions.
• Boosts social participation — Standing at eye level with peers and family members improves confidence, communication, and social engagement.
• Highly adjustable — Grows with the child through a wide range of size and angle adjustments, reducing the need for frequent equipment replacement.

Why We Like It

The R82 Rabbit Up isn't just a standing frame — it's a daily therapeutic tool that quietly delivers enormous long-term benefits for children who can't stand independently. And what sets it apart from other prone standers on the market is how well it balances clinical function with child-friendly design.

The prone position — where the child leans slightly forward against a supportive surface — is particularly effective for children who need gradual introduction to weight-bearing. The Rabbit Up's adjustable tilt means therapists and caregivers can start at a gentle angle and progress over time as the child's strength and tolerance improve. That kind of clinical flexibility is what makes this stander a long-term investment rather than a short-term solution.

We also appreciate the attention to comfort. Standing frames are only effective if children will actually use them — and the Rabbit Up's padded supports, intuitive adjustability, and optional activity tray make standing sessions something children can engage with rather than endure.

For families and therapy teams looking for a pediatric prone standing frame that delivers genuine clinical outcomes alongside everyday usability, the Etac R82 Rabbit Up is one of the most trusted choices in pediatric rehabilitation equipment.
