4 Reasons Why You Need A Lift Chair.
Have you been putting off get a lift chair? Especially because you don’t think you really need one. We have compiled the 4 main reasons why you need a lift chair and how it will change your life!
1. To stay more active
First of all, a lift chair can keep you more active since the lifting mechanism makes it much easier to get in and out of the chair. Being able to easily rise from a chair can keep you from over exerting yourself. Not only do you have more energy but you are able to use the energy on other things like cooking or shopping.
2. Decrease your pain
Decreasing pain is always on the top of everyone’s list. A lift chair can offer easier rising and lowering which can decrease the pain you may feel in your joints. Considering you may have hip or knee arthritis, a lift chair can alleviate some of the pain you feel when sitting and standing from an arm-chair. It can also release the tension you feel in your shoulders and knees while sitting or standing. Most people who have trouble rising from a chair will use their arm strength to help them get up. This can put extra tension on the shoulder and neck muscles. By using a lift chair to rise and lower you will no longer be using your arms to stand.
3. Comfort and repositioning
Being comfortable is a key component for most people when picking out a chair. We offer a range of sizes and cushion firmness to accommodate an array of different comfort levels. Most of all, chairs with multi-positioning options are great when you are planning on sleeping in your chair. Many chairs now come with a dual motor system that allow you to control the feet and back of the chair separately. This type of motor system provides the user with a variety of options, therefore finding the perfect position is possible.
4. Safety
Most importantly safety is a great reason to purchase a lift chair. Not only is it important to get out of the chair but it is also important to safely sit in the chair. The lifting and lower of the chair helps with both. In the case of an emergency it is highly important for you to be able to easily and quickly get out of an arm-chair. Being able to easily get out of a chair can put your mind at ease, offering you less stress and increased comfort.

I am in need of a lift chair and a new wheelchair built to tilt back and the legs rest at a slight angle instead of being bent. I have Medicare and Medicaid Insurance. Can you help me?
Hi Sheila,
Thank you for contacting us. Do you by any chance have a local HMO policy? If you do, we would most likely be able to supply you with equipment. However, if you have straight Medicare you would need to contact Medicare to find out who in your area is able to bill for that equipment. Unfortunately we are unable to bill to straight Medicare. Contact us and I would be more than happy to look further into your insurance and the possibility of supplying you with equipment. Our phone number is 716-824-2243 and we are here 9-5 Monday-Friday and Saturdays 10-2. Looking forward to hearing from you!
I think the most important reason that I would consider getting one of these chairs is the fourth tip you gave, here: safety. My grandmother is always in danger of falling, and these lifts would help her to make it in and out of the chair safely, which is invaluable. I’ll have to see if I can get one for her, soon. I think she would really love it!
Hi Jalu,
Thank you for the comment, safety is a great benefit to owning a lift chair, knowing that your grandmother is safe will put your mind at ease! If we can be of any help please let us know. Have great weekend.
