PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT - APP MULTISENSORIAL STANDER
ㅤ
MUSIC, RHYTHM AND VIBRATIONH!
The APP Multisensorial Stander transforms any signal into vibration, thanks to a patented electronic kit positioned under the footboard. This allows any type of interactive learning device with an analogue audio output to be connected.
ㅤ
A NEW CONCEPT IN STANDING:
This stander has been designed to make therapy more enjoyable and engaging.
The use of the APP facilitates the dynamic and interactive participation of the child during rehabilitation, perfect for
- Reinforcing the standing position.
- Improving interaction with the environment.
- Stimulating cognitive ocular-manual abilities.

TECHNICAL UPDATES
VIRTUS FOOTPLATES
The Footplates on our Virtus Seating System have been updated to allows the footrest stem to be placed at a 90° instead of the current 100°.
This is based off feedback from our clients that they would like the Footplate mounted further back than it is currently, and this simple change makes that possible, while still offering a large amount of adjustment.
As part of this update, we have added an option to receive a slotted Footboard that accommodates our Footcaps without the need of drilling, plus we have moved all adjustment points so adjustments can be made while a user is seated in a the chair.
FLIP DOWN POMMEL & COVERS
Due to supply and demand issues, RMS have now stopped purchasing our Flip Down Pommels from a third-party supplier and are now manufacturing this product range in-house.
The product remains broadly identical, but with a slightly improved positive locking mechanism and extension link system. The mechanism has also been designed to avoid finger traps so are safe for all users.
As part of this ongoing product improvement and based on user feedback, we now produce a soft neoprene cover for the PU Block for clients who find the default block too rigid. Contact us and we will be happy to provide you with the new part numbers and prices for these covers.
The part numbers and prices for the Flip Down Pommels have not been changed and can be ordered as usual.
