WHY ADJUSTABLE RISER RECLINER CHAIRS ARE BEST FOR SUPPORTING GOOD POSTURE

Back

 

It’s well-documented that good posture is critical to good health and positive mental well-being. The benefits of good posture are many… 

  • Less strain on your joints and muscles 
  • Increased lung capacity 
  • Better digestion 
  • Improved circulation 
  • Better mood 
  • Higher levels of energy 

…and much more. 

But maintaining good posture can often be a challenge, particularly for the elderly and those with mobility limitations or long-term medical conditions. 

 

The effects of bad posture 

Bad posture and sitting for prolonged periods of time can have a negative effect on the body. Not only does it cause joint and muscle stiffness and pain, but it can also lead to poor circulation and debilitating pressure injuries. 

It’s estimated that pressure injuries affect 10% of the healthcare population. The majority of those, however, could be prevented altogether which would save the health service a significant amount of money. 

 

How seating can help 

To reduce the negative effects of bad posture, it’s critical to use a chair that provides the correct level and type of postural support, and which provides high levels of comfort. 

Specialist chairs, riser recliner chairs, and care chairs have all been designed to do just that. With a wide range of features and functionality, they offer a choice of solutions for those who need it most. 

 

Modulo riser recliner chairs 

The Modulo range of riser recliner chairs, only available from Independence Mobility, offer the perfect combination of flexibility, adaptability, and comfort – all from a single chair. 

There’s no one-size fits all approach when it comes to perfect posture and needs do change over time. It’s therefore crucial to have a chair that can be tailored and adapted for the individual user. 

Modulo chairs have interchangeable parts so a chair can be customised to suit specific requirements.  

Heights, widths, and depths can also be easily adjusted, enabling the perfect posture and comfort level to be maintained at all the times.

Supporting independence and mobility 

Modulo riser recliner chairs also assist with mobility, enabling users to maintain their day-to-day independence. 

For the elderly and those with mobility issues, moving from a sitting to a standing position can often be difficult. 

A Modulo riser recliner chair can be fitted with a choice of single or dual rise and recline actions, facilitating movement with the simple press of a button. 

 

Styled to suit the home 

Riser recliner chairs can often seem clinical or even a little old fashioned. But for a piece of equipment that is central to everyday life, it’s important to blend in and be part of the rest of the furniture. 

Modulo chairs do just that. With a choice of colours, fabrics, cushions and chair backs, there’s a combination to suit all preferences, personalities, and styles of home.
