How to be comfortabl­e and confident

-

rSINd a comfy riser-recliner chair can certainly be more dignified than trying to get up or down by swinging yourself on the arms or asking someone to help you up, risking their back. By rising and tilting forward gently, a riserrecli­ner chair helps you to sit or stand up much more easily, restoring independen­ce and confidence. Some have a built-in massage and heat package, that can help to relieve joint pain. And chairs with a high leg lift take your feet 6in above the level of your hips, providing relief to the joints and improving circulatio­n. Swelling can be reduced in the ankle and foot joints, as well as those in the back, neck, head, hips and knees. Joint pain affects people differentl­y. Some might experience mild stiffness while others have severe pain. Simple lifestyle changes are usually recommende­d to ease conditions such as arthritis, and a recliner chair is an affordable way to make a big difference at home.

ANAaJrSTAB­LE bed can make it much easier to get up in the morning and to retreat into bed in the evening, as it will sit you up so that you can slide in or out. And for those with joint pain, the bed can be adjusted at the touch of a button to achieve positional relief. This can be much more dignified and comfortabl­e than struggling with aches and pains on a flat, standard bed that might be past its best.
