  • Best Recliners For Your Back For Health Professionals

    Author: Health Times

Back pain is already a significant issue for the general population, with roughly one in six Australians suffering currently. But, for health professionals, especially nurses, the probability of chronic pain is even higher. The latest statistics show that nurses are two to three times more likely to experience back pain. The nature of the job can cause additional risk—for example, heavy lifting, continuous bending and working in awkward positions. 

Being on your feet all day can put added stress on your back. While it’s difficult to control your work environment, your home is a different story. Investing in a top-quality recliner chair can provide real relief for your back. Not only comfortable and perfect for unwinding after a hectic day, but a powerful recliner can also take pressure off your back, neck and legs, which has proven health benefits.

Style Meets Comfort: United Power Recliner


For those looking for a cushioned chair that also looks modern, the United Power Recliner is an ideal choice. It will fit right into a contemporary living area and still allow you to lay flat fully in seconds. Studies have discovered that, in general, it’s better to lean back at a 135-degree angle than sit up straight. As an added bonus, you can find built-in USB ports on the armrests to charge your phone while you unwind.

Small Spaces: Harbor Town Rocker Recliner


This one is for everyone living in apartments or short on space. Some recliners can be bulky, but the Harbor Town Recliner is made for smaller areas. It’ll give you full lumbar body support, which is especially beneficial for those that suffer from lower back problems. Plus, the fully adjustable footrest features automatic locking for maximum safety. Putting your feet up promotes natural body posture and lessens the strain on the body.

Super Soft: Pinnacle Power Glideaway


It doesn’t get much softer than the Pinnacle Power Glideaway. Its fluffy cushions and padded armrests are extra gentle on all areas of the body. Resting the muscles is just as important as stretching them. Sitting in a reclined position spreads the weight more evenly throughout the body and takes away tension from the back muscles.

Sleek & Powerful: Nova Power Recliner


The powerful Nova Power Recliner features dynamic lumbar support, a power recline and a soothing soft glide to make unwinding the ultimate luxury. You’ll always be in control of your sitting position with the powered buttons. Fabric models are fitted with removable arms and head covers for added comfort and protection. Available in two sizes, standard and large ensuring the perfect fit for your body.
