Prone – lying on the stomach or face down. Supine- lying face up or on the back side of the body. Upright- Standing straight up similar to an able-bodied individuals. The EasyStand Magician Comfy Seat is a sit-to-stand upright stander, which provides better weight bearing than prone or supine standers. The Magician Comfy Seat can also be positioned at a 10 degree supine position. The new EasyStand Bantam can be used in the upright & full supine positions.
