Tumble Forms 2 Universal Grasshopper System

The Tumble Forms 2 Universal Grasshopper System is a modular positioning system that can be used to position children and adults in a variety of ways. This highly comprehensive system comprises seventeen different positioning modules to allow the therapist to creatively position the child in a virtually infinite number of ways.

What’s Included?

The Tumble Forms 2 Universal Grasshopper System includes all of the modules listed below. These items can also be purchased separately as replacements or spares if required.

Manoeuvrable Support

The Grasshopper base provides adaptive support for the child during therapy, allowing for an infinite range of positioning treatments. Since the base is mobile with wheels, it allows for easy transport of the patient without compromising support.

To ensure stable, accurate treatment, this base is equipped with 63mm locking castors to prevent unwanted movement. With the mounting plates the Grasshopper is 76mm (3 inches) off the floor.

Safe and Hygienic

When designing equipment for positional therapies, comfort and safety are paramount. That’s why all parts of the Grasshopper System are made with special Tumble Forms covering that is soft, non-slip and easy to clean. To ensure the System is suitable for as many users as possible, the covering is also non-toxic and latex free.

Possible Therapies

With all of the different modules and possible positions this system offers, a wide range of uses are available. These include, but are not limited to:

• Vestibulator activities
• Prone or supine positioning
• Side lying positioning
• Long leg and roll sitting positioning

Tumble Forms Treatment Tips

• Independent sitting enables the child to engage in a range of activities involving varying degrees of hand-eye coordination while upright.
• Both roll sitting and long leg sitting can be used to maintain or increase the range of motion.
• Prone or supine positioning can be used to develop improved head control and shoulder girdle stability, and help prevent contractures and deformities in the lower extremities. This occurs through facilitating hip extension, abduction and external rotation, as well as knee extension and ankle dorsiflexion.
