### Finding the Balance in Seating Design (*Part 4*):

## How to Use Pressure Mapping for Wheelchair Back Support Interventions

 

In XSENSOR Technology's webinar, '*How to Use Pressure Mapping for Wheelchair Back Support Interventions*,' physical therapist and seating expert Bart Van der Heyden (*physical therapist and owner of [SuperSeating Clinical, R&D, & Regulatory Services](https://www.super-seating.com/)*) explores the use of pressure mapping technology to create effective back support interventions for wheelchair users.

Learn how XSENSOR's leading-edge pressure mapping technology, the [ForeSite SS Wheelchair Seating system](https://www.xsensor.com/solutions-and-platform/csm/wheelchair-seating), provides real-time feedback to help clinicians assess, evaluate, track, and make necessary adjustments to support back and seating strategies.

Using pressure mapping allows clinicians to understand the effects of back and seating interventions, such as back support recline, tilt in space, and foot support adjustments, and how they affect individuals in wheelchairs.
