Instructions for Adjusting the Face Rest:
Always Adjust the Face Rest
with Your Client on the Table or Chair
1) Starting with the face rest in a flat position, have your client lie face down
on the face rest. (Fig. 1)
2) Ask your client to support the face rest with two hands by holding onto
it at the velcro on the sides of the U-shaped tube after you have unlocked
the cam locks. (Fig. 2)
3) Have your client pull the face rest towards him/her, raising the chin and
lowering the forehead until he/she is comfortable on the pad; cheeks fully
supported and neck comfortably flexed. (Fig. 3)
4) When the face rest is in a position that meets your treatment requirements
and your client’s optimal comfort, lock the cam locks. (Fig. 4) To prevent
wear, be sure the teeth on the cams are not head to head.
Part no. MMINML0004 rev. 10.17.12
Tips for Great Positioning:
1 ) To use the face rest with your clients supine, rotate the face rest pad so that
the thick part of the pad supports your client’s cervical region. Adjusting the
height and angle of the face rest gives your clients perfectly comfortable
support.
(Fig. 5)
2). The face pad is flexible so that you can bring the open ends together or
spread them apart to achieve the most comfortable support for any size
face. (Fig. 6) To avoid your client’ chin from hitting the spacebar, make
sure the pad is narrow enough to support their whole face.
3) For appropriate cervical flexion, use the cam locks to adjust the downward
angle of the face rest, making sure that the surface of the face rest pad at
the chin is not lower than the surface of the table. (Fig. 7)
4) The face rest pad is attached with velcro so that you can adjust the distance
of the face rest from the table. You may require greater distance for larger
clients or when an arm rest is used; less distance for more petite clients
or when arms are resting on the table. You can also adjust the position of the
pad to avoid having the spacebar near the client’s chin.
