Raise your feet and legs higher
HAVE you had enough of joint pain caused by arthritis? A rise and recline chair could help relieve your pain and increase your comfort. Arthritis is a condition that causes inflammation and pain in the joints. It affects 10 million people in the UK. Unfortunately, there is no known cure, but there are a number of treatments that can lessen the symptoms and make arthritis easier to live with. One way to help reduce arthritic pain is to use a rise and recline chair, which can provide medical benefits by offering support to the joints. Rise and recline chairs also help by greatly simplifying the movements that cause pain, such as rising from or sitting down in a chair. By lifting and tilting forward gently, it is possible to sit or stand much more easily. Chairs can be built to incorporate massage and heat packages that are good at reducing, or even completely removing, joint pains. Those with a high-leg lift function raise your feet six inches above the level of your hips, providing relief to the joints and getting blood circulation flowing. Reclining in this way can help to reduce swelling in the ankles and feet, as well as in the back, neck, hips and knees. Another way to raise your legs above your hips is to recline in an adjustable bed. Look for one that can be adjusted in five difference places, to support the head, back, bottom, knees and feet.
