LalaPositioner
The LalaPositioner is a useful positioning device designed to improve a child’s postural alignment when spending time out of the wheelchair. It can be used to position the the child while asleep during the night or for effective and comfortable positioning for short periods during the day. It helps to control severe muscle stiffness, spasms and uncontrolled movements and is particularly effective in preventing extreme flexed or extended positions of the body, head and limbs. It also allows for controlling the positioning of the head to improve the child’s ability to breathe, swallow and socialise. Different users can be accommodated on the same positioner.
It is effective in promoting healthy growth and development of the hips, knees and spine in children by maintaining a normal and relaxed posture in lying, over longer periods.

Foam Positioning Blocks
Removable blocks are securely attached onto the base mattress with Velcro.

Their position can also be reversed to allow the child to lie on their opposite side to prevent stiffness and pressure sores.
Rigid Foldable Frame
The rigid tubular frame holds the base mattress and back support in place. It can be folded flat for easy storage and transportation.
Durable Covers
Durable, waterproof mattress cover. Removable, washable cotton covers for each positioning block.
