GilGul: Dynamic Therapy Floor Seat

The challenge

Children with functional challenges struggle with postures that limit activity or cause discomfort. GilGul combines chair and floor benefits, enables quick adjustments, expands workspace, and ensures a secure, versatile setup for therapy and play.

Who it helps

The device was originally designed for children with functional difficulties, providing core strengthening and mobility progression opportunities.

How it works

Designed to be modular and adaptive to each user, this innovative approach bridges gaps in functionality, accessibility, and therapy optimization, making it a versatile and essential tool in pediatric therapy.

GilGul is a multifunctional sitting device designed to support a range of activities. It's not just a chair but a therapeutic tool that enables proper sitting posture, balance shifting, and the integration of aiding devices tailored to specific activities.
