Arthritis comes in many different forms and degrees, but it all causes severe pain in bones, muscles, and joints. Medical treatment can relieve much of the pain, and exercise and a healthy diet are also effective against rheumatic diseases.
Chronic pain in the body can be associated with much discomfort and limitations at home, work, or school.
An arthritis chair can meet several needs
At VELA, we make chairs that help people with arthritis cope with the challenges they face daily. These can include poor balance, difficulty walking, pain in the legs, back and arms, and issues when using the hands.
VELA chairs are developed with a focus on individual adjustments and ergonomics. As a result, our chairs help with many of the challenges posed by arthritis. That is why a VELA chair has:
Smooth-running wheels so you can push yourself/walk around while sitting on the chair.
Electric raising/lowering function, which is easily adjusted from the armrest.
Ergonomic and supportive adjustment of the armrests, backrests, and seat makes the chair fit you perfectly.
A solid brake function, which offers safety and security when you need to perform a task.
Therefore, you can get an arthritis chair to help you in your everyday life and adjust to your needs.

Find the perfect chair for you
Answer 8 easy questions and get matched up with the right chair
Now I enjoy cooking for several days at a time, and it makes a world of difference that I can peel the potatoes myself. A good diet is important when living with arthritis – and doing the work also builds up an appetite.
Arthritis can be associated with severe pain that can be more or less constant. Therefore, our chairs are also available with user-friendly electric controls, which reduces the risk of your pain getting worse.
Electric height adjustment can save you from bumps and jolts, and the seat lift makes it easier to get up and sit down in the chair.
An arthritis chair offers increased comfort and alleviates pain. It also means that fatigue will not set in nearly as quickly.
Good handles for arthritis
People with arthritis may have less strength in their hands or crooked fingers, making it difficult for them to operate the handles usually used to adjust our chairs. That is why we have some unique handles that are easier to use if you have arthritis in your hands and fingers.
They are larger and easier to grip when the brake needs to be locked, or the seat needs to be adjusted.
