Not sure this is the right place to post this but… We’re looking for a lift and tilt chair for my husband and he’s thinking a massage chair might help with his aches and pains. I think he has to be really careful with this as he has mets to his hip, spine, ribs, skull! Has anyone got one of these they could comment on please?
Hi Daffodil68,
It's Matthew here from the Online Community Team. I'm sorry to hear about your husband's aches and pains.
Because your post didn't find anyone to share their experience with you on the Carers only forum, I have now moved it to the Secondary bone cancer forum. Hopefully the kind folk of this forum will have more relevant experience to share with you regarding using recliner chairs for providing better support for your husband.
You might also find it helpful to speak to our clinically experienced Cancer Information Nurse Specialists. They may be able to provide you with further information on finding supportive seating for your husband's specific needs. You can post your question over on our Ask a Nurse forum if you'd like one of our nurses to respond.
I hope that helps but please feel free to email us in the Online Community Team if you need further support. You can contact us directly on community@macmillan.org.uk whenever you need help.
All the best,
Matthew
