“we are faced with major back problems in chiropody, and this is a real solution”

Back Care Advisor Moving and Handling Conference 2005

Bending down to treat the feet of a patient in a wheelchair should be avoided on Health and Safety grounds. The population of the elderly who cannot bend their knees easily and also need for foot care is growing. Using the Chiropody Footrest™ with a standard or mobile wheelchair platform can eliminate the back problems faced by clinicians.

In Health Centres that offer both Podiatry and Dentistry useful sharing arrangements can be made on the wheelchair platform.

•	Treatment with no need to bend the patients knee
•	Easy one-handed operation
•	Easy fit ‘Velcro’ leg restraint straps
•	Folds to a flat pack for easy storage
•	Fully adjustable to suit all patients
•	Hard sintered powder finish
•	Upholstery to your chosen colour
•	Allow treatment to the sole as well as the top of the foot
