Spex Seating Systems – Precision-Engineered Postural Support
At Unique Mobility, we supply and configure the Spex Seating System — an advanced, modular seating solution designed to deliver optimal postural support, pressure care, and functional positioning for wheelchair users of all ages.
The Spex range is clinically proven and fully customisable to meet the needs of adults and children with a wide variety of conditions, from mild postural asymmetries to highly complex seating requirements. Every Spex product is compatible with most active manual wheelchairs and complex powerchair bases, enabling integration into existing mobility setups.
Why Choose a Spex Seating System?
Correct seating is essential for:
- Maintaining spinal alignment and pelvic stability
- Preventing or managing pressure injuries
- Supporting respiratory and digestive function
- Enhancing comfort, function, and independence
- Facilitating 24-hour postural care
Spex seating is fully modular — each component (cushion, backrest, headrest, lateral support) is designed to work together, adapting to changes in posture or condition over time.
The Importance of a Seating Assessment
All seating prescriptions should be based on a comprehensive seating assessment, carried out in partnership with your clinical team (Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, or Rehabilitation Engineers).
During the assessment, we will:
- Evaluate posture & pressure care needs
- Determine range of motion, tone, and skin integrity
- Recommend appropriate product configuration from our available options (Spex, V-Trak, Promedicare or a combination)
- Ensure compatibility with your existing or new wheelchair/powerchair base and daily routines
Why We Prescribe Different Spex Models
- Active, mild postural needs: Spex Vigour range – lightweight and streamlined for independence.
- Moderate pelvic or spinal asymmetry: Spex Classic range – highly adjustable and clinically versatile.
- Severe postural presentation or progressive conditions: Spex High Contour or SuperHigh Contour – provides maximum stability and pressure care.
