Tilt-in-Space Technology for Pressure Relief & Comfort
The Repose Lynton Healthcare Chair is available with either a Single Tilt-in-Space (STIS) or Dual Tilt-in-Space (DTIS) mechanism.
Tilt-in-Space technology allows the entire seating system to tilt backwards while maintaining the same seat-to-back angle. This helps redistribute pressure away from vulnerable areas while reducing friction and shear forces that can contribute to skin breakdown.
For individuals seated for extended periods, this feature can significantly improve comfort, pressure management, circulation, and positioning support.
The Dual Tilt-in-Space mechanism also provides independent backrest recline and independent leg rest movement, allowing carers to create highly personalised seating positions based on the user’s needs.
The rise function gently tilts the seat forwards to help support safer standing transfers while reducing strain on the hips and lower body.
Pressure Management Seat Cushions
Every user has different seating and pressure care requirements. The Repose Lynton Healthcare Chair offers a choice of interchangeable pressure management seat cushions designed to support changing comfort and clinical needs.
All cushions are removable for cleaning and replacement and are upholstered in four-way stretch Dartex healthcare fabric to help minimise friction and shear.
Easiform Cushion
A soft and supportive Reflex foam cushion designed for gentle everyday comfort.
Viscoform Cushion
Combines a supportive foam base with memory foam pressure relief for individuals seated for longer periods.
Liquiform Cushion
Features gel-based pressure redistribution technology to help reduce heat build-up and improve comfort for users with limited mobility or reduced muscle mass.
Dynaform Alternating Air Cushion
Designed for users at very high risk of pressure sores, this alternating air cushion continuously redistributes pressure to reduce prolonged pressure build-up.
Minimum user weight: 6 stone 4lbs (40kg)
Maximum user weight: 19 stone (121kg)
Mammoth Medical Grade Foam
Medical Grade™ foam technology designed to improve pressure relief, airflow, temperature regulation, and postural support.
Pressure Management Back Cushions
The Repose Lynton also features interchangeable back cushions that can be adapted to support posture, comfort, and changing neurological conditions.
- Waterfall Back Cushion – Adjustable fibre-filled support for comfort and mild postural support
- Support Lateral Back – Firmer lateral positioning support for improved trunk alignment
- Adjustable Support Lateral Back – Enhanced lateral positioning with adjustable structure
- T-Back Configuration – Adaptable positioning support using the waterfall cushions
- Chester Comfort Lateral Back – Soft fibre-filled support with enhanced lateral positioning
Each cushion option can be repositioned or adjusted to provide tailored comfort and support for the individual user.
Adjustable Seating for Multiple Users
One of the key benefits of the Repose Lynton Healthcare Chair is its exceptional flexibility. The chair can be adjusted to suit multiple users without needing separate seating systems.
The removable arm design allows the seat width to be altered, while the adjustable backrest bracket system enables seat depth adjustments for improved posture and comfort.
Optional seat depth pads and seat height adjustment kits provide even greater flexibility when adapting the chair for changing care requirements.
The Lynton also features interchangeable arm tops and adjustable seat height options to help ensure optimal positioning and lower limb support.
Compatible with Stand Aids & Safer Transfers
The Repose Lynton Healthcare Chair is compatible with selected stand aids, including the Freeway TA180 Transfer Aid, helping support safer transfers for both the user and carer.
The Freeway TA180 encourages more mobile users to stand with assistance while helping reduce manual handling strain for carers. It features opening legs for navigating around furniture, braked castors for stability, and supportive seat pads for safer transfers.
The Repose Lynton is also suitable for use with mobile and overhead hoists, making it a practical solution for both home care and professional healthcare environments.
Choosing the Correct Chair Size
Correct chair sizing is essential for posture, circulation, pressure management, and overall comfort. A chair that is too large or too small can lead to poor positioning and increased pressure risks over time.
To help ensure the best fit, read our guide on how to measure yourself for a riser recliner chair.
This guide explains how to measure seat height, seat depth, seat width, and back support correctly to achieve optimal comfort and positioning.
