Penelope's Story

Over the years, Penelope and her family have particularly struggled to find appropriate adaptive chairs that could support her needs and still enable involvement in home and school activities. Thankfully, two seating systems made by Jenx have been there to provide this support, growing with Penelope along the way: The Atom and Junior+!

Product Features & Benefits

Contoured seating with memory foam seat pad, independently adjustable lumbar/sacral support and a 4 point lap strap all provided as standard make the Jenx Junior+ outstanding when it comes to pelvic control. Plus if you find this isn’t enough, the optional Ischial Bar will help prevent low tone or very active children from slipping into sacral sitting.

Pelvic Control System

For those who are unable to hold their head up when feeding, the Jenx Multigrip™ head support can be used to support the chin and make feeding easier and more enjoyable.

Head Positioning

Trunk supports on the Jenx Junior+ are adjustable for height and width and in long or short styles. Trunk support should be addressed once the child has a stable base in sitting and any necessary hip support in position. Trunk support will then aid the child to maintain an upright posture with the benefits of comfort, function and freedom to breathe that a well supported trunk position offers.

Trunk Positioning

The base options are height adjustable, with the Y-Base allowing flexibility for each child to enjoy activities from floor level, to breakfast bar height.

Base Options

Use 2 or 4; these unique Leg Control Pads allow you to control leg positioning independently, creating abduction or adduction or controlling windsweeping. Simple to adjust, they flip completely out of the way for smooth, safe, dignified and unobstructed transfers. 

Leg Control Pads

To accommodate or encourage dorsi or plantar flexion. Adjusts quickly and simply with the turn of a button, flips up for safe and easy standing transfers with the footplate held out of the way with a concealed magnet. Now with easy fit slots making attaching sandals and other foot support options a breeze.
