eK-Lite™
The eK-Lite™ is a very lightweight and compact kneeling system specifically designed for practitioners who work in situations where space may be restricted and/or portability of equipment is a priority. Both stool and mat are foldable and fit inside a lightweight backpack style bag for ease of transportation.
The same ergonomic and biomechanical principles are at the heart of the design and development of both the eK-Lite™ and the established ErgoKneeler™. Both products enable the user to manage the postural forces that cause the physical stressing, strain and discomfort that occur during prolonged static kneeling. The result: greater working comfort, less musculoskeletal stressing and fatigue, less risk of cumulative damage to tissues and associated deterioration in musculoskeletal health. Both systems also possess individual properties that provide greater choice and problem solving capacity for managing the challenges that can occur in differing situations.
The eK-Lite™ is designed to work in harmony with the ErgoRaiser™ limb support as required.

ErgoKneeler™
The ErgoKneeler™ is a kneeling system that can provide comfort, support and ease of movement for people such as nurses, midwives, podiatrists, orthotists, therapists, care workers and educational staff who undertake tasks at a low level. It can assist the user in managing the postural stressing associated with kneeling, helping to reduce the cumulative strain and promote musculoskeletal health.
Moulded in polyurethane foam with active antibacterial properties, the ergonomic design alleviates the compression forces and postural discomfort associated with low working positions and promotes good spinal posture. Designed by a Chartered Physiotherapist and Back Care Adviser, the ErgoKneeler™ is the result of collaborative working with Spectrum Healthcare (UK) Ltd and The Design Unit, De Montfort University, Leicester.
