FAQ

Q: Why is a 135° angled bar used instead of a horizontal bar for shower transfer?

A: A horizontal bar provides support at a single height — optimal for one point in the transfer movement. A 135° angled bar provides support across a vertical range (lower end during the initial reach and step, upper end during the upright standing position) — following the natural arm movement arc through the full transfer. For patients with significant lower limb weakness or balance impairment, the diagonal bar provides more effective support through the complete movement rather than only at the top.
