- A Riser Recliner chair is good in two ways
- The rising action helps you to sit and stand
- The reclining action can make you more comfortable, especially if you are sitting down for long periods of time. This can also help with some medical conditions.
Rising
All riser recliners work on the same basic principle- press the button on the hand control and the chair slowly rises to guide you to stand. The chair will stop at any given time that you take your hand off the control, giving the option of where you feel most comfortable.
Sitting down goes the other way, you position yourself on the raised seat and press the button on the hand control and the seat will go down slowly.
Reclining
The recliner makes the chair extremely comfortable as you can raise your feet and lie back into a rest position. If you are sitting for long periods of time, a recliner is useful because you can change positions which can stop you getting stiff and sore.
If you are at risk of pressure soreness, a chair with a tilt and space action would be helpful as the whole chair tilts back, however the back rest still supports your lower back, and your weight is spread evenly through the whole seat and back
Always seek medical advice if you are unsure!!!!!
