f:id:affordablemedicalusa:20200204200826j:plain

A wheelchair is a straight-backed chair with a locking mechanism. This kind of chair is mounted on wheels and ideal to use by those people who are ill, injured or suffering from restricted mobility. A standard wheelchair comes with basic features only however if a person spends considerable length of time on them, he should look for a reclining manual wheelchair.  In reclining wheelchairs, the back of a chair reclines to different angles and provides comfort to users suffering with back pain.

The manual wheelchairs need to operate either by user himself or someone needs to push the chair from behind. These wheelchairs are easy to transport, require less maintenance due to fewer moving parts, an affordable price range and easy to navigate in small spaces. Depending upon the usage and requirements, manual wheelchairs differ on the grounds of style, weight and material.

  • Manual Wheelchairs by Weight: Ultra-lightweight, Lightweight and heavy-duty are three categories of manual wheelchairs available on the weight basis.
  • By Style: If a person wants to shortlist the wheelchair on style basis, he can choose any one frame: folding and rigid frame.  
  • By Material: Steel, aluminum, titanium, etc., are some of the common materials used for manufacturing the wheelchairs.

 A person should consider buying or taking reclining manual wheelchairs on rent only if he possesses the right level of balance and strength, and needs for indoor purposes primarily.

If he is looking for some advanced mobility solution, then either he can opt for power-operated wheelchairs or recreational scooters available for sale. The recreational scooters are transport and mobility scooters that transport a person from one place to another in an effortless manner. These scooters are either three-wheeler or four-wheeler and are suitable to use both indoors and outdoors. Adjustable armrests, padded seat, ultra-bright LED taillight and headlight, high ground clearance, black non-marking tires, etc., are some of the features of these scooters.

Fortunately, both reclining manual wheelchairs and recreational scooters are available on a rental basis. A person, after evaluating his needs and requirements, can take them on a rent for fixed period of time.
