There are times in life when you just need a helping hand to stand up and sit down, due to mobility challenges, pain, or lack of muscle strength. A lift chair can be a great solution, especially for those who may live alone. Using a chair that helps you stand will conserve energy, ease the burden of care on caregivers or family members, and increase safety from falls and the possibility of broken bones. If you, or someone you love and care for, could use this help then Lift Chairs should be something to consider.
What is a Lift Chair?
A lift chair closely resembles a regular recliner. They are the same in appearance, and the extendable footrest and recline position. That, however, is where the similarities stop. A lift chair has the added features of being controlled with the push of a button, allowing you to recline or stand up as the seat lifts and chair tilts forward.
Who Benefits from a Lift Chair?
The benefits of a lift chair are many. As we mentioned, it is a tremendous aid for those with mobility or balance challenges. With optional heat and massage features, Lift Chairs also provide therapeutic benefits to those with stiff and sore joints, back pain, arthritis, and a variety of other conditions.
Many people even opt to sleep in their Lift Chairs rather than in their beds because of the variety of positions available. Most models can be reclined to a flat position, but can also be modified to different angles and elevations for maximum comfort. For those who must keep their legs elevated while they sit or sleep, Lift Chairs are an ideal solution. Recliner lift chairs that have the Zero Gravity Position like the StellarComfort line do a great job of controlling swelling in the lower legs. The StellarComfort line has a patented positioning system which allows the user to easily go into Zero Gravity and even Trendlenburg which elevates the legs over the heart.
