Comfortable Clothing for Seniors

Throughout the years, our clothing styles change. When we were toddlers we didn't care so much for
fashion and style, and then, before we knew it, the teenage years began and we chose our own clothing. During this time, our clothing style represented who we were as individuals. But, as we begin our adult lives, we start to increase our emphasis on the comfort of our clothing. 

One concern among seniors is that most clothing brands appeal more to the younger generation, and lacks the comfort and functionality often desired by seniors.  Resident Essentials makes it our goal to address the needs of seniors and those who desire comfortable, functional, and durable clothing.  As such, we carry a full line of beautiful traditional senior clothing as well as a variety of adaptive clothing.

The Internet provides us with a virtual mall of endless stores to shop in. If you're looking for comfortable clothing for seniors then Resident Essentials is your online store. Our variety of senior clothing and adaptive clothing for men and women includes shirts, pants, sweaters, dresses, outerwear, nightwear, undergarments, socks, shoes, slippers and adaptive clothing styles.

Shopping online also means there's no need to walk around for what feels like ages searching for clothing. You can shop from the convenience of your home and whenever you'd like, since an online store doesn't have closing hours. Browse our selection online any time of the day and contact us  if you have any questions or comments.

Is A Medical Recliner Right For Me?

People may view a medical recliner as just another piece of furniture. But, a medical recliner isn't just another seat for someone to sit in. Rather, it's a recliner designed specifically to help those with Joint, back, and muscle issues.

Back pain is one of the leading causes of doctor's visits. Although walking is an extremely healthy exercise, it also puts stress on the joints and spine causing muscles to tighten, resulting in back pain. Medical recliners can help back and joint pain as they properly align your spine, relieving pressure on your joints and muscles. Placing yourself in a reclining position helps to further relieve muscle tensions and joint pressure.

Additionally, medical recliners are strongly suggested for those who experience knee, hip or back traumas or surgeries. The pain resulting from traumas or surgeries can be severely limiting, resulting in decreased activity levels and even emotional difficulties. Suddenly, even simple daily tasks such as walking or sitting, require a whole new level of effort as they often put additional pressure on joints and muscles, causing additional pain. Laying down on a medical recliner will help you recover quickly and comfortably. 

People of all ages experience muscle pain. But, weakness in muscles can prevent people from doing simple daily tasks such as standing up or walking. Medical recliners are suggested for those with muscle conditions. Fibromyalgia, for example, is a common condition that often results in pain in the joints, tendons, and muscles. Other conditions include fatigue, inflammations, cancers, stroke, and bodily injuries, which cause pain throughout the body. A medical recliner will allow you to rest your muscles, properly align your joints, and relieve pressure points that often aggravate chronic conditions and acute sources of pain.  You may also want to consider mobile recliners, or Geri chairs, which allow you to remain seated while being wheeled, or lift chair recliners, which provide extra assistance when standing up.

If you suffer from any of these conditions or have similar symptoms, speak to your doctor to see if a medical recliner, geri chair, or lift chair is right for you.
