SPIRIT Fitness 7.5S Wheelchair Accessible Rehabilitation Recumbent Stepper

The SPIRIT Fitness 7.5S Rehabilitation Recumbent Stepper is engineered for physical therapy, rehabilitation, and professional healthcare environments where wheelchair accessibility, patient transfers, controlled movement, and progressive therapeutic exercise are essential.

Designed as an accessible semi-recumbent rehabilitation stepper, the SPIRIT 7.5S provides direct wheelchair access or a 360-degree swiveling seat, allowing clinicians to accommodate users with a wide range of mobility levels. The system is designed to align with ADA accessibility requirements and provide greater inclusivity within medical and rehabilitation settings.

Bilateral upper- and lower-body movement, 20 levels of resistance, a 10–210 steps-per-minute speed range, and an adjustable 1"–12.5" step range allow exercise to be tailored to individual mobility, range-of-motion, strength, and conditioning goals. A dedicated Symmetry program further expands its capabilities for rehabilitation and bilateral exercise.

Designed for Accessible Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy

The SPIRIT Fitness 7.5S combines the support of semi-recumbent exercise with accessibility features designed for users with limited mobility.

Its unique design provides direct wheelchair access, allowing the seat assembly to be moved away from the exercise unit so an appropriate wheelchair can be positioned directly at the stepping mechanism. When the integrated seat is preferred, the 360-degree swivel design helps facilitate easier entry, positioning, and exit.

This flexibility makes the SPIRIT 7.5S particularly valuable in rehabilitation environments serving patients across a broad spectrum of physical abilities.

Direct Wheelchair Access

One of the defining features of the SPIRIT 7.5S is its direct wheelchair access, providing an exercise option for users who may not be able to transfer safely or comfortably onto conventional rehabilitation equipment.

The seat assembly can be positioned away from the exercise unit, creating space for direct wheelchair positioning at the stepping mechanism.

This capability can be particularly valuable in physical therapy, neurological rehabilitation, long-term care, and other clinical environments serving individuals with significant mobility limitations.

360-Degree Swivel Seat for Easier Transfers

When the integrated seat is used, its 360-degree swivel capability helps facilitate easier entry and exit.

The ability to rotate the seat can reduce the amount of maneuvering required to assume the exercise position and provides clinicians with greater flexibility when assisting users during transfers.

Combined with direct wheelchair access, the swivel-seat system allows the SPIRIT 7.5S to accommodate a diverse range of mobility and transfer requirements.

Bilateral Upper & Lower Body Movement

The SPIRIT 7.5S provides coordinated bilateral upper- and lower-body movement, allowing users to engage multiple muscle groups during therapeutic exercise.

The full-body stepping motion provides clinicians with a versatile platform for mobility-focused exercise, progressive strengthening, cardiovascular conditioning, and rehabilitation programs.

The semi-recumbent configuration provides additional support while offering a low-impact exercise option for users with varying physical abilities.

Symmetry Training

The SPIRIT 7.5S includes a dedicated Symmetry program designed to support bilateral exercise.

Combined with the stepper's bilateral movement pattern, the Symmetry program provides an additional tool for rehabilitation professionals when balanced movement is an important component of an individualized exercise program.

Adjustable 1"–12.5" Step Range

The SPIRIT 7.5S provides an adjustable 1" to 12.5" step range, allowing the stepping motion to accommodate different ranges of motion and rehabilitation needs.

A shorter step range can accommodate users requiring a more limited movement pattern, while the range can be progressively adjusted as mobility and exercise tolerance improve.

This adjustability gives clinicians greater flexibility when tailoring therapeutic exercise to individual abilities and rehabilitation goals.

20 Levels of Resistance

The SPIRIT 7.5S provides 20 levels of resistance, allowing exercise intensity to be progressively adjusted based on the user's abilities and therapeutic goals.

An eddy current braking system with a small flywheel provides low starting inertia to help users initiate movement with less initial resistance.

With a workload range from 5 to 1000 watts, the 7.5S accommodates controlled therapeutic exercise while providing room for progressive strengthening and cardiovascular conditioning.

Adjustable Seating for Patient Comfort

The SPIRIT 7.5S incorporates an adjustable seat angle designed to help reduce back strain and improve comfort during exercise.

The integrated seat can be used when appropriate or moved to accommodate direct wheelchair access, giving clinicians greater flexibility when working with users of varying abilities.

The stepper is designed for recommended user heights from approximately 4'10" to 6'6" and supports users weighing up to 440 lbs.

Rehabilitation Programs & Progress Tracking

The full-featured blue backlit LCD console provides clear exercise feedback and straightforward operation for clinicians and users.

Available programs include:

• Manual

• Hill

• Plateau

• Interval

• Symmetry

• Heart Rate

• Custom 1

• Custom 2

A built-in 5 kHz wireless heart rate receiver provides compatibility with supported wireless heart rate monitoring devices.

A USB Type-B port supports data transfer, while CSAFE connectivity provides additional integration capabilities for professional rehabilitation environments.
