One chair, many lives.
Therapists everywhere tell us the Rifton Activity Chair is perfect for feeding, speech therapy, active learning, and for clients with sensory processing challenges. Not only that; parents see what it can do for their child in the classroom and realize how much they need it at home, too.
Rifton’s clinical positioning chair has revolutionized active seating. Versatile, adaptable, durable – this is a chair therapists designed.
The Benefits:
Tool free adjustments, while client is in the Rifton Activity Chair.
Wide range of optional accessories available to create an adaptive chair providing customized active seating for your client – whether in early intervention, school, home, rehab or day hab – from the client with autism to one with more involved physical challenges such as cerebral palsy.
Two Chair Base Options:
Hi/lo base for easy transfers, optimal positioning, and instant access to any activity.
Standard base for regular classroom use and ideal for students with autism who need calming through self-generated motion (self-stimming).
Features:
Tool-free adjustments
All it takes is a pen to remove seatbelt and harness clips, making these attachments easy to use and tool-free, yet child-proof.
With all adjustments easy to make – and no tools required – the Rifton Activity chair is an ideal choice for the busy special needs classroom or at home.
The lateral supports are fully adjustable in height, width and angle – all with one knob, which, by the way, can’t ever fall off and get lost.
Every white button and lever indicates a point of adjustment, as shown here with the abductor.

Adjust with client in the chair
Unlike a reclining wheelchair, the Rifton Activity chair can be easily adjusted while a client is in the chair. This saves time and makes adjustments much simpler to gauge.
Seat depth can be safely and easily adjusted while a child is in the chair, by pulling the handle beneath the seat.
Adjust the tilt–in–space angle by squeezing two levers at the back of the chair, as shown.
Handwashing made easy: tilt ’n go!
And when it’s time to relax in the middle of a busy day, that’s easy too.
Spring option
The optional seat and backrest springs on the Rifton Activity Chair standard base (and the backrest spring in the hi/lo base) allow for calming through self-generated motion – ideal for clients with autism. The spring column can be locked when not in use.
The spring column can be locked and unlocked by turning the white twist-lock collar.
Once his caregiver has unlocked the spring, Mateo calms down by bouncing and rocking.
