Therapeutic Benefits

Today, the active wheelchair has become an indispensable part of pediatric rehabilitation. Developments over the years have shown that it is most beneficial therapeutically to tap into a person’s inherent physical potential as early as possible and thereby help them develop independence. After all, self-determination in daily life and an autonomous life as “normal” as possible is the ultimate goal of every individual.

If a child is unable to use their legs adequately due to a specific condition, a customized active wheelchair can provide access to an independent and active life and compensate for physical deficits as effectively as possible:

  • Active participation in social life
  • Promotion of mobility
  • Strengthening and stabilization of the upper body and core muscles
  • Stimulation of the cardiovascular system and metabolism
  • Promotion of sensory perception

As the name suggests, an active wheelchair is designed for active use. To achieve this, it is essential that the wheelchair is precisely tailored to the user and their needs and, especially in childhood, can be adapted to constantly changing physical conditions and developmental stages. However, it also places certain physical demands on the child. For example, they should have a certain degree of trunk stability and be able to actively position their pelvis.

Even though our CESA active rigid-frame wheelchair can be configured starting at a seat width of 24 cm, it is the ideal solution for all children and adolescents who have outgrown CLEO and still require a custom wheelchair.

The wheelchair with a box frame, available in three sizes, is always paired with a corresponding drive wheel size, which has the advantage that—as with CLEO—all important seat positioning and alignment adjustments are made via the base plates and seat frame, thus eliminating the need for modifications to the wheel suspensions.

Of course, the CESA also offers all the features you’d expect from an active wheelchair. In addition to extensive adaptability as the child grows, it features various adjustable seat angles and seat heights, as well as a wide range of activity level and backrest angle adjustments. A version with steering and pushing assistance rounds out the package, making it easy to navigate even over rougher terrain.

As an additional option, we also offer the CESA Abdu with an abduction frame. This is necessary when children need more stability from the footrest’s support surface to help support their core muscles. Furthermore, it is beneficial to have more space for the feet, for example, when special orthopedic shoes are required.
