Spinal Cord Injury Meetup

 Wednesday,January 21st

 6pm-8pm in person at the Ed Roberts Campus in Berkeley.

Presentation by ​​​​​​​Matia Mobility

The presentation will cover who the upright wheelchair is designed for, how the technology works, which insurance plans cover it, and what makes someone a good candidate. I will be bringing a demo model, and participants are welcome to try it.

Matia Mobility designs advanced upright mobility solutions that allow people with walking disabilities to sit, stand, and move independently at eye level, both indoors and outdoors. The Tek RMD features the industry’s smallest footprint, providing access to tighter spaces and environments often inaccessible with standard wheelchairs. Regular supported standing can help improve circulation, support bone density, aid digestion, and reduce pressure sores. The device is covered by health insurance and VA benefits, and is also available with multiple financing options
