Frequent Adjustments
Thoracic Strap
& Footplate
Why? Benefits of the Adjustment:
The 45° pelvic strap not only holds the child safely in the seat, but also holds their hips in place in the back of
the seat, giving them a stable base for sitting. The position of the child’s hips is important as it is the base of
their posture. Weight should be evenly distributed on either side and their pelvis should be level and not rotated.
