Poor
muscle tone causes daily and lifelong head control problems
for many people with special needs. These will include
a restricted airway - causing breathing difficulties,
it makes feeding difficult, puts undue pressure on
the back and neck, and hinders interaction.
Heads Up is a fully adjustable, elastic based system where
each side adjusts independently from the other This gives
the caregiver the ability to apply the desired amount
of tension.
Since
the elastic stretches, it allows a full range of motion.
As the elastic stretches, the resistance increases
- increasing support. This elastic tension adjustability
provides for maximum comfort and outstanding control.
The
Heads Up system provides unparalleled versatility because
it is compatible with almost all forms of special needs
equipment, and has various medical applications.
The
Heads Up system effectively solves the problems noted
above: It opens the airway, simplifies feeding, relieves
pressure on the back and neck, and allows eye contact
which promotes interaction.
