Why use the Headaloft?

The Solution

FDA and CE registered, patented Headaloft is a life-changing product; an easy to use, non-restrictive head support solution for those who lack head control. Headaloft comfortably and gently holds the head upright, reducing neck discomfort and allowing for easier breathing, feeding, and communication. Being breathable, washable, and affordable, it meets all the needs.

Benefits for the client

Better Body Symmetry
Supporting the head and aligning the body centralizes the head in an upright position, which helps relieve aches and pains, and enhances self-esteem.

Smoother Breathing
Lifting the head up opens the airways letting in more oxygen.

Easier Eating / Swallowing
Keeping the head elevated reduces choking hazards for both solids and liquids while ensuring an easier feeding experience for caregivers and smoother swallowing for the user.

Enhanced Communication
Better eye contact heightens social engagement while open airways make talking easier.

Eye Gaze Control
Clients gain the ability to practice eye-gaze control which allows for expanded learning opportunities and greater fulfillment potential.

Ergonomic Neck Support
Padded, breathable, and washable all-day comfort. With its unique occipital support add-on, the neck is supported, greatly reducing the level of stress on the neck as well as aches and pains.
