The multi-position saddle lets a client in the Pacer take some of their body weight through a seat while they practise stepping, so a session can go longer than their standing tolerance alone would allow.
It can be set at different heights and angles, which means you can unweight a client heavily at the start of a programme and progressively take the support away as their strength and endurance build. For a client with poor standing balance or low endurance, it is what makes repeated gait practice realistic. It also gives a resting position without having to take the client out of the frame.
Seat covers are available separately and can be replaced when they wear.
