We encourage you to call us for personal service: Austin: 512-476-0500; We are here to answer all of your questions and help you choose the right model and features. Now, here is additional information:The Trendelenburg position, not only provides the ultimate stretch of your entire back, but also improves your circulation. German physician Friederich Trendelenburg created this position and it is named for him. This position raises your feet above your head, increasing blood flow in your lower extremities. Many doctors prescribe the therapeutic benefits of the Trendelenburg position for congestive heart failure, edema or other circulatory conditions where patients need to raise their legs above their heart for certain periods of time each day.
In the zero-gravity position, the spine, hip and knee joints are positioned on the balanced midpoint of the muscles. With the MaxiComfort power recline system from Golden and the Infinite Position lift chairs from Pride, the seat moves up and down to pivot your hips into this naturally relaxing Zero-Gravity position. Spinal pressure and muscle tension are relieved, circulation is improved.We can add heat/massage to most lift chairs. Golden also offers a Shiatsu Massage lift chair now. This type of massage features the gentle kneading and rolling touch of a shiatsu massage. Now available and in-stock at both of our stores. Or, order online for quick delivery in the fabric of your choice.Lift Chairs - How they workAll lift chairs will lift the user to the standing position. 2-Position does not mean there are only 2 positions just as 3-Position does not mean there are only 3-positions. The chair can be stopped in any position by releasing the control button.The difference between 2-Position, 3-Position and Infinite-Position Lift Chair is in the recline mechanism and footrest/ottoman positioning.
The back and footrest go back farther with the 3-position chairs as opposed to the 2-position. These days, you can get a three position chair for about the same price as a two position. We recommend a 3-position or infinite position lift chair for most of our clients. Lift Chair Positioning:*Please note, most all of the infinite position lift chairs from Golden and Pride will position the user in the Trendelenburg and zero gravity positions. Please call us at 800-610-4295 if you have any questions. 2-Position Lift Chair:2-Position Lift Chairs do recline a few inches. While reclining, the seat of the chair actually slides rearward as to extend the stretched-out position. This position is where you would normally position a "Lazy-Boy" recliner if you are watching TV. Most 2-Position Lift Chairs have a gap between the seat and the ottoman. The 2-Position Lift Chair has a single motor that runs the back recline and ottoman. A single toggle switch on the hand pendant controls everything.
The Golden Capri Lift Chair and the Pride LC-110 Lift Chair are typical 2-Position lift chairs.
