It's Not Just About The Chair

It's not just about the chair - Blog

Here at Seating Matters, we use the latest technology and design to ensure our products are at the cutting edge of specialized seating for the healthcare market. We are continually evaluating and revaluating their effectiveness and respond quickly to clients’ needs and requests, through enhanced designs and bespoke solutions. We provide chairs which are easy to operate, easily adjustable and are user friendly.

As Occupational Therapists are aware, the product is only half of the solution. We have witness clients everyday who purchased their own equipment but did not receive proper advice and assessment. Therefore, we realized there was a need to increase awareness of the impact of poor seating within the general public, and the healthcare system.

Poor assessment leads to:

  • Progression of existing deviant posture.
  • Development of new deviant posture.
  • Inefficient use of resources.
  • Cost to both patient and your organization.


Therefore, proper assessment and education is vital for a successful outcome for our clients.

The patient is at the heart of Seating Matters interests. To ensure that their seating and postural needs are being met we offer complimentary, no obligation Seating Assessments. If you have a patient who would benefit from an individual client assessment or would like to increase your knowledge in specialized seating provision, we are here to help.

Consequently, Seating Matters is first and foremost a clinical company providing, training, advice, education and seating assessment for healthcare workers, family members, clients, and carers.

We have a team of highly trained staff both internal and external to provide support and advice to maximize the patient outcomes. We provide training through a range of different formats, such as our Online Academy, where we offer research and clinical evidence on the benefit of clinical seating.

In addition, Seating Matters has produced The Clinicians Seating Handbook which is an essential guide for anyone involved in the provision of specialized seating. If this is a resource you feel would benefit your practice, we encourage you to request your FREE copy.
