"You actually wish this for everyone."

Ginie’s story

As a therapist, she was already familiar with the ibot before she herself became dependent on a wheelchair. So when she had to reconsider her mobility, she knew exactly what this technology could mean.

"You actually wish this for everyone."

During her first test drive, Ginie mainly wanted to see if the chair truly did what was promised. That doubt vanished almost immediately.

"It's really an amazing thing. What surprised me most was how compact the chair is, while there is so much technology inside."

Today, she uses her ibot among other places in the sports hall and during outings in nature. Places where elevation changes, tree roots, or sandy paths can be a challenge for others.

Regaining independence in daily life

For Ginie, mobility isn't about small improvements, but about the feeling that there are options again. Since she started using her iBOT, she experiences much more freedom to go wherever she wants.

"From the moment I got the chair, I haven't felt restricted."

Whether she's going to the sports hall or taking a walk in the woods, the iBOT gives her the confidence to venture out independently and stay active.

Convinced within the first minutes

Since Ginie was already familiar with the technology from her work, she was mainly curious about the practical experience. Would the chair truly deliver what was said?

She was convinced within the first few minutes.

"I was mainly curious if the chair did what was told. It turned out to absolutely be the case."

The combination of stability, compactness, and advanced technology made an immediate impression.

Making choices during the WMO application.

The ibot was provided for Ginie through the WMO.

The process required clear choices and good conversations with the municipality.

"My preference was for being able to move independently outside, for example in the woods or to the sports hall, over other facilities."

By looking together at what would make the most difference in her daily life, a suitable solution was found that both Ginie and the municipality fully supported.

The first ride in the ibot balance wheelchair

Once the ibot was delivered, Ginie knew exactly what she wanted to do first: go into nature.

With her husband, she set out along forest paths and through tree roots. The feeling of freedom was immediately tangible.

"What a delight. What freedom."

Along the way, she received many reactions from people who were amazed at how effortlessly the ibot moved through sand, uneven surfaces, and nature paths.

For Ginie, one sentence perfectly summarizes her experience:

"Do you love being outdoors? Nothing holds this chair back."
