If you have back trouble or are concerned
about your health, you can now get a zero gravity chair for your condo or casa in
Nuevo Vallarta.
According to recent statistics, four out
of every five people in North America have back pain. Back pain is often caused
by injury, strain, disk problems, heredity or disease. Regardless of the cause, one way to alleviate
the pain is by minimizing the force on your vertebrae. The lower the compression on your disks, the
easier it is on your back. As an
example, standing can load about 100 pounds of compression onto the lower back. Sitting in a regular chair can pack even more
– about 150 pounds.
One of the best chair designs is the zero
gravity chair, also known as a stress release chair. We can thank the doctors and scientists at
NASA for inventing this technology that reduces or eliminates the pressure on the
spine. Initially created for astronauts, the purpose was to alleviate the
significant stress on their spines during take-off. The zero gravity chair is designed to evenly
distribute body weight across the chair, thereby not over-compressing spinal
disks.
Stress release chairs elevate your legs
over the level of your heart. This is
beneficial because experts believe that this position increases your
circulation, resulting in less stress on the heart. People with swelling in the legs due to edema
or painful varicose veins have commented on pain relief by elevating their legs
regularly. According to doctors, leg
elevation can also help prevent DVP (deep vein thrombosis) – a common and
dangerous blood clot that can travel to the lungs, causing a pulmonary
embolism.
Zero gravity chairs for indoor use are
becoming more popular as the baby boomer generation ages. According to Eric Notar, the VP of Sales in
Mexico for Palliser, one of the most significant growing segments is in motion
products. “We are not surprised
that there is ever-growing demand for these types of products. The Z line of Palliser’s zero gravity chairs
is one of our most popular lines with customers who experience any back
pain. Once they sit in the chair and
feel the relief on their backs, they are sold.
Zero gravity chairs are a game changer.”
Most stress-release chairs have moveable
parts adjusted with levers and then programmed by memory to stay set at a
specific position. This ensures the
chair is perfectly aligned to the body of the user. In standard models, the chair generally has
two positions – opened and closed.
Although they cost a bit more, the best type of chair offers numerous
positions so that you can customize the degree of incline to your needs.
Zero gravity chairs are not only
ergonomic, but they are also fashionable.
They are available in leather, fabric or performance fabric covers. We recommend the performance fabric to our
clients in Nuevo Vallarta. This
revolutionary fabric that does not stain will ensure you get great value and
long life from your chair, especially in our ocean-side, humid climate.
