Comfort and Positioning

The Spex Seating Classic SuperHigh Contour cushion comes as standard with a washable, spacer fabric cover and incontinence cover.

The ability to create on the spot adjustments using the included 'build-up' kit offers an incredibly versatile, maintenance free solution for those requiring more than an out-of-the-box solution - simply add or remove cells to design the required support.

Strategic Positioning Base

Modifications by strategic placement in the adjustable base cell system further contour the cushion for correction, control, balance, stability, pressure redistribution and many other needs.

With adjustment being done at the base of the cushion, the upper foam layers are unaffected and don’t cause bottoming-out or further pressure risks..

Obliquity adjustment is simple and can be built up with the 10mm pads to create the correct height required.

Common Adjustments

The Spex Classic SuperHigh Contour Cushion can be adapted on-the-spot to suit individual pelvic needs including:

  • Pelvic obliquity
  • Tight hamstrings
  • Posterior pelvic tilt
  • Anterior pelvic tilt
  • Limited hip flexion (one side or both)
  • Extensor thrust
  • Pelvic rotation
  • And more...
  • Clinical applications

    The Classic SuperHigh contour cushion is an excellent choice for individuals who:

    • Have muscle tone patterns that require sufficient thigh lateral control. Thigh support is higher for alignment – refer specifications table
    • If extremity support can’t be maintained through the use of external thigh laterals and/or if installing thigh laterals can’t be used, the SuperHigh contour cushion will provide that needed support and stabilisation

    • Require pelvic comfort and pressure relief/distribution
    • Require a high degree of pelvic stability and specific contouring
