FAQ

What is Posture Tech?

I need a new chair. How does it work?

After a referral from your medical professional, a typical process for creating a custom postural support for you looks like this:

Initial consultation with your therapist, family or carer and a Posture Tech technician
Fitting session. You will be fitted for a support, moulded to your body using advanced technology
Manufacture. The Posture Tech team will get to work building your support, using the 3D scan to ensure your comfort
Trial period. Take you almost-finished chair home for a week or two to ensure it meets your needs
Completion and handover. Our team will make any necessary adjustments, complete the upholstery and add the final touches – like your choice of colours!
