Lift Recliner Chair

Description

These chairs use a quiet, motorized lift system to gently raise and tilt the user into a standing position—or lower them back into a seated or reclined position—reducing strain on the body and the need for assistance. For individuals with FOP, who may experience limited joint mobility, difficulty sitting upright for long periods, or the need to avoid sudden movements or physical strain, power lift recliners offer several benefits:

• Smooth, Low-Impact Movement: The slow, controlled motion of a lift chair helps prevent jarring movements that could cause discomfort or risk of flare-ups.
• Improved Positioning: Recliners with adjustable backrests, footrests, and head support allow for more comfortable, individualized seating—especially important for those who may be fixed in certain postures.
• Safer Transfers: The lift feature helps reduce the need for physical lifting by a caregiver and makes transferring into or out of the chair safer and less physically taxing.

Choosing the Right Lift Recliner 

• Dual or Triple Motor Models: These allow independent movement of the back, legs, and head, so users can find a position that works with their unique range of motion.
• Wide Seat and Arm Spacing: More room means easier access and more flexibility for unique body positions or for use with mobility aids.
• Soft but Supportive Upholstery: Look for padded, breathable fabric that’s comfortable for long sitting periods without being too firm or too soft.
• Remote-Controlled Operation: Simple, easy-to-use remotes with large buttons make operation less complicated for users or caregivers.
• Battery Backup: This ensures the lift mechanism will still work in case of a power outage—a helpful safety feature.
• Side Pocket Storage: Built-in pockets are convenient for storing remotes, phones, or medical devices within easy reach.
