Question: I'm looking for device called a power wheelchair rocker. Do you know where I can find one? ~Tim

Answer: Yes, these platform rockers are becoming very popular among wheelchair users. A quick internet search should help you locate a manufacturer or a sales department that sells them. A wheelchair platform rocker is basically a small curved platform that can hold a person in a wheelchair. The wheelchair user can experience the benefits of a rocking chair with one of these devices that will help you to relax while providing some exercise. The vestibular motion of the platform helps to stimulate brain chemistry; while the rhythmic motion helps to prevent skin breakdown by shifting body weight and position. Rocking platforms come in various types and sizes, but they all basically serve the same purpose. You can also get different platforms if you want to experience more vigorous or less vigorous rocking. The rocking platform has a small ramp for getting on and off, and when the wheelchair is centered it's strapped into position.
