Permobil Progeo Exelle Vario Manual Wheelchair
Overview:
The Permobil Progeo Exelle Vario Manual Wheelchair offers a contoured, folding frame with extensive adjustment options to accommodate a wide range of clinical needs. With multiple legrest angles, seat-to-floor heights, and frame configurations, it’s ideal for users requiring greater seating support, easier transfers, or tailored postural management.
Description
With swing-away, removable footrests and a folding backrest, the Permobil Progeo Exelle Vario Manual Wheelchair combines the flexibility of a folding frame with customisable features usually found in more complex systems. The chair’s frame allows adjustments for seat height, backrest height and angle, centre of gravity, and footplate positioning.
Three front frame angle options (including up to 120°) allow clinicians to address issues such as knee extension, hamstring tightness or spasticity. Lightweight and transportable, the Progeo Exelle Vario is well-suited for a wide spectrum of users, including those transitioning from rehab to active daily use.
