Our Story
Seating Matters is a family run business.
Martina Tierney, an Occupational Therapist and author of The Clinician’s Seating Handbook, designed the first Seating Matters chairs to meet the needs of her individual patients with complex needs and pressure injuries.
Throughout Martina’s 40+ year career working with patients, Martina discovered the profound effects that unsafe seating could have on patient outcomes and designed chairs to meet their clinical and functional needs.
After results from a clinical research trial proved that Seating Matters chairs helped reduce pressure injuries, falls and caregiver injuries, demand for Seating Matters expanded globally.
Seating Matters began to supply government and hospital systems throughout the world and developed partnerships with healthcare facilities to help them reduce cost of care.
Seating Matters is committed to helping millions of lives a year through their products and global partnerships.
