If you suffer from fluid retention, Rise and Recline Chairs could provide the perfect answer. Fluid retention refers to a build up of fluid in your body, causing the affected tissue to become swollen. Fluid retention, or Oedema, predominantly affects your feet and ankles but can occur anywhere under the skin. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the many benefits that Rise and Recline Chairs can offer you when experiencing fluid retention.

1. Rise and Recline Chairs keep your legs elevated

Firstly, if you suffer from fluid retention, raising your legs 3 or 4 times per day can help to improve your blood circulation. At the touch of a button, Rise and Recline Chairs elevate your legs. This allows you to relax in a comfortable position with your feet upright. As a result, this helps your blood to move around your body which reduces the pressure you feel.

Did You Know - Choosing dual motor Rise and Recline Chairs allow you to elevate your legs higher while you stay upright. This encourages fluid to move around your body, reducing swelling.

Secondly, as well as helping you get in and out of your chair with ease, Rise and Recline Chairs provide a comfy and convenient way to help ease the pain of fluid retention, all from the comfort of your chair.

This means you’ll feel comfortable and fully supported at all times. Resting with your feet up is the perfect position for relaxing when reading, resting or watching TV whilst ensuring optimum comfort.
