Medial thigh support helps position the legs out of ad-
duction and into better alignment, which can provide for
improved weight-bearing balance and stability.

When used with a lap belt, the 1” (25mm) anti-thrust shelf
in front of the ischials helps eliminate sliding or thrusting
forward of the pelvis. This provides improved stability and
reduces sacral sitting.
