Overview
Trunk Support
The trunk area of the human body is a very important part of the positioning puzzle. Trunk support is essential for good respiration, head positioning, and balance/stability. There are three areas of trunk stabilization:
- Posterior
- Anterior
- Lateral
Good posture is the result of balancing the skeleton in relation to gravity. The long-term goals of good posture are to increase function of the user, minimize orthopaedic consequences, provide pressure relief, normalize muscle tone, and reduce active muscle requirements. Stealth Products offers a wide array of devices that will aide in targeting a very custom position. Products such as chest vests, lateral thoracic support hardware with or without custom pad options, and even linked shoulder retractors are a few of the different types of products Stealth specializes in.
