Oakland Stairlifts Announce Research Into Arthritis And Other Mobility Problems

Online, September 20, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Arthritis is a disorder that affects the joints within the human body and inflames them. This is a common disorder and around 10,000,000 people suffer with this just in the UK, serious cases cause people to have trouble getting around their own house and when they do they are in searing pain.

The word Arthritis refers to a group of disorders that affect different parts of the body. They can affect people's backs, muscles and joints and the severity of this can vary. If someone is struggling getting around their own home they should get some assistance. A perfect piece of equipment for this is a stair lift. These are extremely safe and can help anyone travel from one floor to another with great ease. They are not just for people that physically cannot walk up the stairs, if it is painful for a person to move about their own house they should help ease the pain with the simplicity of a stairlift.

Back pain is another common struggle that people see as normal and they think that they just have to deal with it. But this is not the case because help is available to help solve the problems as well as arthritis. Obviously people can visit their local GP or just see a physiotherapist but these do not always work and they could be left with these conditions. By having a stair lift everyone no matter what condition they have can ascend and descend the stairs safely. Quite a lot of people with these conditions are concerned about getting around the house when they don't need to be, if someone installs a stairlift any risk of going up the stairs will be gone as quite a lot of stairlifts come with seatbelts and others have armrests so falling out would be near impossible. If this is the case they should opt into getting a stairlift.

Stairlifts do not have to be permanent. If someone is recovering from serious surgery they will not need a stairlift forever. This is why Oakland, one of the leading stairlift retailers, now has the option of renting a stairlift from a price as little as £15 per week. This is not a huge cost and can help someone recover in a safer environment.
