The adjustable balance point connection bolt on the top of the frame is moved furthest to the front, in order to tilt the trapezoid metal frame at its greatest angle upwards at the front.  This adjusts the centre of gravity of the user to help them balance their head and neck.  This also puts the fabric seat into a greater recline, in order to provide support for the head/neck.

Lisa has fun while improving her physical abilities!
