The first wheelchair: setback or a new chance?

Being dependent on a wheelchair for the first time is not easy for anyone. It feels like a restriction and a dead end. A grey, uncomfortable and partly used standard wheelchair doesn't make the transition any better.

Wheelchair cushions help

Since Saljol knows the problems of people in need of help and works with them, we have addressed the problem and developed the Extra wheelchair cushions and pads. The cushions make your standard wheelchair stand out from the crowd, turn it into your own personal and individual wheelchair that not only looks good, but is also comfortable.

Better quality of life

Our encouragers (that's what we call customers who share their experience with us) tell us about the enormous quality of life they have regained thanks to the wheelchair upholstery. How so? Quite simply: they could participate in life again and enjoy life.

Bengt Engström: Expert for correct sitting in a wheelchair

The Swede Bengt Engström has been working extensively on ergonomics and correct sitting in a wheelchair for over 30 years. Mr. Engström has taken a close look at our wheelchair upholstery and has come to a very positive conclusion. Read the complete interview with Bengt Engström here.

Seat cushion for the wheelchair: sit softly and don't pull on your buttocks

Since wheelchair users often have to sit for several hours, it is important that the buttocks are subjected to as little strain as possible. Unfortunately, the standard wheelchairs offer only little seating comfort, the seat is usually only a straight "board" without large padding.

Sit pain-free

The extra seat cushion for your wheelchair lets you sit softly and comfortably for several hours. In addition to the soft seat, the wings on the sides offer secure protection against cold air.

Universal seat cushion

The seat cushion fits almost every standard wheelchair. If the wheelchair is already "sitting through", our optional stable seat plate helps. The seat plate increases the seat stability and you sit more upright and safer in the wheelchair again.

Backrest upholstery: Comfortable backrest in a wheelchair

In addition to a comfortable seat cushion, a soft and well thought-out back cushion should not be missing. Again and again we have observed customers who have simply stuffed blankets and normal cushions behind their backs in order to obtain a soft and warm backrest.

The problem is that the temporary upholstery is uneven and puts more strain on the back than it helps.

Special back cushions are the solution

As a solution we have developed a universal back cushion. The back cushion not only fits every wheelchair, it is also soft and evenly padded.Entlastung der Wirbelsäule

The back cushion relieves the strain on the spine and does not unevenly load it. The thick cushions additionally warm and help to prevent pain and tension in the neck and shoulder area.

Armrest cushions and footrest cushions for the wheelchair

In addition to the buttocks and back, the arms have the most contact with the wheelchair. The armrests of a standard wheelchair are usually made of hard plastic, with which the forearms quickly rub up and hurt.

Individual armrest cushions: avoid pressure points

The solution is armrest cushions for wheelchairs. The armrest cushions are soft and help to avoid pressure points on the arms.

Footrest pad for healthy legs

Not only the arms like to rub it up, the sharp edges on the footrests also cause abrasions and sore spots on the legs. The special footrest pads prevent this problem by covering and padding all sharp metal edges.

Tripping in a wheelchair

Many wheelchair users trifle in their wheelchairs. In order to avoid injuries to the hard and sharp-edged frame, the metal poles are covered with foam or other materials.

The gaiters are a triple protection for wheelchairs and offer a chic and durable solution. The perfect fit, yet universally applicable gaiter is simply put over the sharp frame and fixed with 2 Velcro fasteners. Simple but effective.
