Car arm rest
Our client struggled to drive any distance due to pain and discomfort in her shoulder.
The solution
Our additional rest made mainly of aluminium is set slightly higher and further out than the normal door arm rest, and hooks over the edge of the door trim. A block of EVA foam with a fabric cover provides a degree of flex and much greater comfort for our client’s elbow. A bracket on the front of the arm rest slots under a section of door trim to keep the bottom of the rest in position.
The benefit
Our client was able to drive herself to work for the first time in over a year.
