zero gravity chair?

[anaishunter]

Has anybody tried a zero gravity chair to help with calming down restless legs, calm down the body, or help with MS pain?

Just curious.

Thank you.

I tried them and while comfortable, I did not like the way they looked, therefore I shall continue to suffer.

agree with you falalalala - most of them look quite ugly! I was dreaming for someone to answer with "yeah, they help a lot, and here's a great looking one".... thank you for replying.

They had massage chairs as well.

The most expensive was a colossal monster.I left my shoes on which was a mistake as it squished the sides of my feet together.

🇪🇸That's supposed to be a pain emoji but it's the flag of Spain.

😆

The less expensive massage chairs were actually better IMO and did feel great.

I've had one for several years. Mine is not as comfortable as my recliner, and doesn't really help me with pain. It's a good outdoor substitute for my recliner.

Have one, is not comfortable for me, where my feet just hang past the chair. My wife's a little shorter than I and she likes it. I'll use any other chair fine. Don't have a recliner? Remembered them being fall asleep comfortable. But, I'm restless in any chair, and I remember all the old relatives having them, and spending most of their days in them. I'll try and keep moving before I think about getting one for myself.

when my son was in the hospital I was spending a lot of nights up there and i slept in the recliners they had furnished in all the rooms. I can no longer sleep on a flat bed. I am so accustomed to my adjustable bed, and i also extremely bad GERD. I have been hospitalized numerous times for pneumonia after aspirating stomach acid in my sleep so I must sleep with head raised.. If i can't sleep in my bed, I sleep in a recliner.. They are usually quite comfortable

My Mother in Law spent her many final years living with Parkinson's in her recliner, that also lifted so others could get her out of it. Whatever it takes, do it!

Not the chair but i have an adjustable bed that i can put into a zero gravity position. It is HEAVEN! it takes all the stress off of the points in your body that react to pressure.. its like relieving the joints and weight and pressure points all at the same time and then your entire body can just relax because its in the absolute perfect position to just BE

So showing this feed to my husband. Since the recliner in my couch broke 2 weeks ago he doesnt understand why i complain about my back hurting. So much so my chiro sent me to get a massage cuz he was unable to adjust me. I am hurting now from head to toe.

I was doing so good walking on the treadmill and doing chores cuz when i did sit i had lumbar support and everything else was in perfect alignment. Now i can barely walk and i just shuffle around the house. There is no comfortable place to sit anymore.

My husband still doesnt get it. 🤦🏼‍♀️

My bed does zero gravity and I’ve not noticed much difference in my legs. I usually stay that way for a few hours and then have to side sleep.

I just bought a zero gravity outdoor chair at lowes (hubby did actually) and oh my word it is sublime to sit in!
