Many people with spinal cord injury would like to return to standing post injury, either through the use of aids or equipment. Standing has been said to improve blood pressure, pain and spasticity and maintain range of movement following spinal cord injury. Additionally, it can result in significant psychological and social benefits for people with spinal cord injury.
