A stroke patient in her early 80s was suffering back pain because she couldn’t sit far enough back in her armchair. The height of the chair had been adjusted, but there was no support at the front to stop her sliding forward as the seat cushion became compressed, so her occupational therapist referred her to Remap. We made new chair raisers that were 20 mm lower at the front than the previous ones and 40 mm lower at the rear, so the seat cushion was slightly tilted and the lady could sit back in comfort. We also installed a cloth covered foam bar to support the front of the chair and prevent her from sliding forward.
