What should you pay attention to when buying a therapy couch?
Share
There are countless stationary therapy tables available, but not every model will support your work. Your choice depends primarily on your work environment, but also on personal preferences. Naturally, the patient's well-being is also an important factor.
Therefore, you should think carefully about the following points before making a purchase.
1. The height and width
Clean, simple, and modern: that's probably how many therapists and doctors envision their practice. Even if decoration is perhaps secondary, you should still create a cohesive overall impression. This also includes choosing an electric therapy table of the appropriate size.
If it's too wide or too long, the room will automatically feel more oppressive and smaller. You'd also be restricted in your work and wouldn't be able to move properly around the client. Therefore, make sure your treatment table stands out only for positive reasons and doesn't literally take your breath away.
2. The height adjustment
Everyone would probably agree that a therapy couch should be height-adjustable. This allows you to find the correct working posture and makes it easier for elderly patients to get on and off.
However, there are different mechanisms for adjusting the height. Some treatment tables, such as the SOFIA from Coinfycare , offer a surrounding control rail that can be easily reached with your foot from all sides. Elegant spa tables like the ERIS , on the other hand, use a remote control, and the wooden treatment tables from Falkner are operated with a foot switch.
The choice is entirely up to you. All options are straightforward and achieve the desired result quickly and quietly.
3. The padding
The most important factor here is the type of treatment you offer. For physiotherapists and chiropractors, we recommend a treatment table with relatively thin padding to prevent the patient's body from sinking into it. Coinfycare models, in particular, offer the optimal density without causing the patient discomfort.
For wellness treatments, however, thick padding is essential. The HERA spa lounger, for example, offers exceptional relaxation with its velvety-soft 11 cm of padding.
4. The number of segments
Similar to the upholstery, the design of the treatment table should also be tailored to your work. Is a flat surface with a headrest, like the DUBLIN treatment table, sufficient? Do you need an additional leg rest for treatments while seated, like the N'RUN 3 ? Or are pelvic drops essential? Then the chiropractic table is probably the best choice.
5. The design
As we explained at the beginning, your furnishings should be harmonious. Your therapy couch can certainly help create the right atmosphere. Consciously integrate this centerpiece into the room; it will immediately make a big visual difference.
