Unlike traditional manual wheelchairs where the user has to physically move the wheels to advance, a power wheelchair is a motorized version. Which allows the wheelchair to move through the use of electric power.

There are many advantages that come along with a power wheelchair. Eliminating fatigue and soreness is a major benefit, for the user no longer has to manually move the chair. Depending on the distance they are traveling this can amount to a lot of fatigue and strain. A full day of moving one’s body weight can take its toll.
