Pelvic Positioner Body Tech NW, Mukilteo, Wash, introduces the Embrace pelvic positioner™, a product that adds an alternative to wheelchair lap belts and subasis bars. Customizable and flexible to most wheelchairs, Embrace should meet the varied positioning needs of its users. The device is designed with elliptical pads to adjust to body contours without applying unnecessary pressure, while the surface consists of firm, high-density foam that allows localized contact surface for anterior pelvic control. It offers six-way adjustment to afford precise pelvic support and a swing-away feature that provides access for transfers. A pressure lock system prevents accidental release of support pads.

Adjustable tubing stretched from its sides connects to the ball at four locations to create 20-120 pounds of resistance, ideal for bench and shoulder presses, resisted crunches, lunges, and any other multi-plane workouts. If resistance training is not part of a workout, the bands can be removed. Tubing and stability ball can be used together or on their own. The burst-resistant ball will hold up to 1,000 pounds of dynamic pressure, and comes with snap lock connectors, two sets of adjustable tubing with foam-cushioned handles, and instructions.
