Rifton Prone Stander

 Providing physical development and greater social interaction
The physiological benefits of standing are enormous – not to mention the psychological benefits of being able to tackle activities in an upright position, participating at eye level alongside peers.

Prone Standers allow for physical development and greater social interaction – enabling clients to experience the world more fully while building strength for the future. Our Prone Standers provide anterior support and stability while encouraging weight-bearing and use of both hands and arms. Fully adjustable, a Prone Stander can “grow” with clients as their skills develop.

"The Rifton Prone Stander has exceptional growth capability, and adjustments are easy to make by parents or therapists. The adjustable abduction wedge with hip stabilizer positions even heavy youngsters in good hip extension and alignment. I consider this stander one of the best on the market."
