Seating Lab – XSENSOR Pressure Mapping
Neuro Alliance is delighted to introduce our ‘Seating Lab’ service, designed to address and prevent pressure injuries through a comprehensive screening tool. This service is crucial for individuals at risk, providing a holistic approach to seating and pressure management.
What it is
The Seating Lab at Neuro Alliance specialises in conducting comprehensive assessments to identify predisposing risk factors for pressure injuries by utilising the cutting-edge XSENSOR Fore Site SS pressure imaging system.
