Reclining Wheelchair FAQs

What is a reclining wheelchair?

A reclining wheelchair assists those who have issues sitting upright for prolonged periods of time. With the adjustable backrest, the user is able to lean back and alleviate stress by distributing weight. This weight distribution prevents pressure sores and muscle contractures. Reclining wheelchairs increase circulation in the body, which helps to increase overall health. The specialized wheelchairs provide comfort and support to those who spend long periods in a sitting position.

How do I care for my reclining wheelchair?

Caring for a reclining wheelchair involves a few simple steps:

Regular cleaning: It is important to keep your wheelchair clean and free of dirt and debris. You can wipe down the frame, wheels, and other parts with a damp cloth or mild soap and water.

Lubrication: The moving parts of your wheelchair should be lubricated on a regular basis to ensure smooth operation. You can use a silicone spray or other lubricant recommended by the manufacturer.
