Have you considered why EASY ACCESS SHOWERS are becoming more vital in everyday life. It’s a fact that we will all grow older and some of us may develop special needs through a disability or just because as we grow older we need a little help.
The fundamental purpose of bathing is to maintain the health and physical well being of the body. While most young able-bodied people do not think twice about taking a bath or shower,bathing is more time consuming and more hazardous for older people or those with disabilities.
Physiolgically bathing allows cleansing of the skin and the removal of accumulated foreign matter.Bathing displaces dead skin, prevents irritations and rashes that would otherwise transform into infections,and washes away waste materials that can interfere with the normal functioning of the skin. Bathing maintains dignity through cleanliness,appearance,and it refreshes,revives and relaxes through the washing process.
Getting in the bath or shower is the most critical aspect of bathing independently.It is also the most difficult aspect of providing care. Poor balance and fear of falling greatly affects peoples ability to make a safe transfers. Awkward bath and shower shapes,inadequate maneuvering and slippery floor conditions greatly adds to the problem.
There are many problems with the present designs of baths and showers.These products are outdated and they fail to meet the physical needs of the aging population. Adaptive bolt ons such as fixed seats and grab handles are not the solution, they highlight failures in conventional designs and the problems remain unresolved.
The design team at INDEPENDENCE-SHOWERS who came from the automotive industry have approached the problem in a different way.EASY ACCESS and simplicity has been the theme we have followed,ensuring whilst in the shower everything is easy to reach. Your transfer even from a wheelchair or not, into the shower is effortless,by sitting in the seat,gliding into the shower over the threshold without the need for stepping, allowing you to turn through 360 degrees so that you can enjoy washing all round and when bathing is completed you simply glide back out.
We have engineered the shower so that the seat easily lifts out so that it transforms into an elegant en-suite shower for able bodied use.The design ensures that the installation is made simple and can be achieve within a working day.This EASY ACCESS SHOWER will remain leakproof and maintenance free.

Let us consider why DISABLED SHOWERS are becoming more vital in every day life. It’s a fact that we will all grow older and some of us may develop special needs through a disability or just because as we grow older we need a little help.
The fundamental purpose of bathing is to maintain the health and physical well being of the body. While most young able-bodied people do not think twice about taking a bath or shower, bathing is more difficult, more time consuming and more hazardous for older people or those with disabilities.
Physiologically, bathing allows cleansing of the skin and the removal of accumulated foreign matter. Bathing displaces dead skin, prevents irritations and rashes that would otherwise transform into infections, and washes away waste materials that can interfere with the normal functioning of the skin. Bathing maintains dignity through cleanliness, appearance, and it refreshes, revives and relaxes through the washing process.

Your home should be of the optimum comfort and convenience level for you to be able to enjoy your time at home. All too often these days, life is extremely stressful. Many people work long and gruelling hours and heap on the stress during the course of a working day. As such, they want to go home and relax, but they cannot do that if they are unable to take a shower and wash the office or workplace right out of their hair. Many of us take the ability to have a shower quickly and easily for granted, but if an individual is disable then a regular shower will not cut it. That is what disabled showers are designed for after all.
Believe it or not, disabled showers can make all the difference between an individual having independence and being a prisoner in his or her own home. If you cannot wash yourself then you would require someone else to do it for you, which only serves to take every possible shred of dignity that a normally independent individual has left. As such, disabled showers can give an individual that independence and dignity back.
Disabled showers are designed with safety in mind. There are many designs of disabled showers so you can choose the one that best suits your needs, but they all have safety features that make showering a good experience rather than one filled with apprehension and maybe even fear. As such, it is important to find that one that offers the safety features that you need. Maybe this is a seat or a fitted rail, or it may even be that you need a wet room. Whatever you need, disabled showers can find it for you.
You can choose disabled showers that fit in with your existing colour scheme or, if you are considering redecorating your bathroom, you can plan out a new colour scheme around them. They are very easy to fit into your bathroom or even to plan a bathroom around because they come in a variety of styles and colours. You could even design your very own1
There are custom models and dimensions available to order because catering for every person as an individual is especially important. No two people have exactly the same needs so choosing the right option is a decision worth taking time over.

Bathing is easy for those of us that are able-bodied enough to get into the bath or stand to have a shower. In fact, having a bath or shower can be a refreshing and relaxing experience, but if you are one of those people that is physically unable to do that then there is another option out there for you that means that you do not have to resort to wet rooms if you do not want to. It is possible to have an enjoyable bathing experience with seated baths.
Seated baths are designed perfectly to fit in with the needs of those that struggle to get around as a result of old age or illness, and also those that are permanently disabled. They effectively give the person using them a little independence so that they can bathe themselves easily and effectively without the need for supervision. In effect, they also give an individual his or her dignity back and so are absolutely necessary for use in the bathrooms of the disabled or elderly.
You can choose from a number of designs of seated baths because, as with anything, no one size fits all. Different people have different wants and needs so it is important to cater for all of those needs rather than those of a few. As such, you can choose from the actual seated baths that open up so you can walk into them before sitting on a seat that is built into the mould and filling the bath or a regular bath that has a seat built into the mechanism. This version of the seated baths will allow an individual to sit on the seat, which will then swing around and lower the individual into the bath.
You do have the choice of seated baths so you can pick the one that best suits you. If you choose, you can even have one that has been custom made for you. This is a popular option because it enables any individual to be comfortable bathing rather than in pain because he or she has to conform to a certain way of bathing. However, whether you choose a custom made bath or one of the many seating baths designs that are already out there, comfort and independence should be what it is all about.
