The use of the Buffin standing seat by a physiotherapist after ending the exercises enhances the chances for regaining correct posture. The construction, after proper adjustment, helps to restore the physiological spinal curvature. It also smoothly corrects all types of scoliosis and passively restores the correct position of kyphosis and lordosis of the spine. The adjustment of the pelvis position (the pelvis in the sitting position is the basis for the entire body) corrects the spine position and simultaneously corrects patient's entire body. The possibility of fluent adjustment of buttocks strain prevents from developing bedsores (helps in treating bedsores), prevents the skin irritation even after a long sitting period. It also enables to keep the correct head position, which makes feeding, learning and playing easier. Each seat is individually adjusted to child's posture by the physiotherapist and every two months (or more frequently) corrected and adapted to the new (closer to correct) child's posture, which makes rehabilitation more effective and enables to introduce new exercises. The innovative feature of the seat is the fact that it "grows" with a child. It is adjusted to the present child's position and height.
