Swippolino viva

The popular Swippolino saddle chair for children is also available in a version for therapeutic purposes. The Swippolino viva is suitable for children with either too high or too low muscle tone.

What effect does the Swippolino viva have?

The special shape of the saddle seat directly affects the pelvic position and changes it in such a way that the muscle tone of the entire trunk posture can normalize. With the abduction position in the hip joint, the pelvis can be aligned upright. This effect positively influences key points and leads to a normalization of muscle tone. A domino effect is triggered. The limbs also change their tone, enabling or supporting voluntary motor control.

For which children is the Swippolino viva suitable?

For children for whom centered sitting is particularly beneficial.
