Product Details

Rigidiser for the Matrx Flo-Tech Solution Xtra Wheelchair Cushion

The Matrx Flo-tech Solution Xtra Pressure Relief Wheelchair Cushion is unique in that it offers a number of contoured positioning accessories, helping it to correct common postural problems while assisting in pressure relief. This Rigidiser is one such accessory, and is designed to be placed under the entire cushion to provide a firm base on slung canvas wheelchairs.

This Rigidiser is available in a range of sizes. Choose your size to match the dimensions of your cushion and wheelchair.

What Is the Purpose of the Rigidiser?

Slung canvas wheelchairs are often slightly unstable, which can hurt the efficacy of the stabilising components of the Matrx Solution Xtra Cushion. By placing this Rigidiser underneath your entire cushion (including wedges), it will provide a firm base on slung canvasses to maximise the efficacy and stability of your cushion and its component parts.

What Other Modular Positioning Options Are Available?

There are a number of modular positioning options that can be added to the Flo-Tech Solution Xtra cushion. Many of these accessories can be seen in use with the cushion the image below. These options include:

  • Pelvic Obliquity Pad: Can be inserted into either side of the ischial well under the gel pad to correct fixed pelvic obliquities
  • Hip Aligner: Can be placed on either side on the rear edge of the cushion, either unilaterally or bilaterally, to encourage mid-lining and hip alignment
  • Thigh Aligner: Can be placed on either side at the front of the femoral shelf, unilaterally or bilaterally, to reduce external rotation and abduction of the thighs
  • Pommel (Standard or Deep): Placed at the front of the cushion to increase existing pommel height
  • Rigidiser: Placed under the whole cushion (including wedges) to maintain a firm base on sling canvases
  • Fluid Sac: Can be inserted into the ischial well where required to prevent forward sliding, reduce sacral pressure and help mild pelvic obliquity
  • Wedges (Front, Side and Lateral): Placed under cushion to assist with pelvic stability and anterior tilt

Washing Instructions

  • The Matrx Flo-tech Cushion is washable and should be hand-washed with soap and water
  • The cushion should not be machine washed
