GHN Technologies Introduces a Revolutionary Chair to Aid in the Sit-to-Stand Transition

GHN Technologies has made a breakthrough in assistive technology with the introduction of the Eleva-Chair™. This patented mechanism gives people with difficulty sitting or getting up from a chair the freedom of independence and movement. With the launch of this new product, the company is seeking a sponsor who will provide an Eleva-Chair™, free of charge, to every amputee who has lost a limb in the service of their country in support of the ongoing war on terror.

(PRWEB) November 5, 2007 -- For many people, the seemingly easy task of moving from a sitting position to a standing position or vice versa is actually quite strenuous. GHN Technologies' Eleva-Chair™ (http://www.eleva-chair.com) solves this problem. The Eleva-Chair™ does so without placing strain on the body or body tissue or exuding a sense of instability. Accordingly, it is not a lift-chair recliner. Moreover, the Eleva-Chair™ can be customized to look more like a tasteful piece of furniture as opposed to a mechanical apparatus.

The Eleva-Chair™ is designed with built-in motors that allow the user to adjust the seat with the push of a button. To achieve a sitting position, a user can elevate the chair to the height most comparable to their body, then relax into the chair and finally readjust to the desired position for sitting. To move to a standing position, the Eleva-Chair™ rises with the push of a button to literally elevate the user to his or her feet, independently and safely.

"Our mission, at GHN, is to create intellectual property that will better the lives of people around the world. That was the motivation behind the creation of the Eleva-Chair™," explains GHN's Vice President Cecil F. Hill, Sr. "So many people have been searching for the kind of a chair that affords a user the independence in the style of a chair that is suitable to one's standing. This technology can be placed into almost any chair."

An important part of America's health-care system is workers' compensation claims. Low back injury claims among health-care workers consume a major part of the employers' compensation budget. The rates for injuries in home health-care, nursing, and personal care facilities are similar to or greater than more typically hazardous industries, such as construction. The Eleva-Chair™ would more than pay for itself by helping to prevent back injuries due to assisting patients.

In keeping with the company's mission to improve the quality of life for people worldwide, one of the goals of GHN is to give injured U.S. military and U.S. Coalition servicemen the opportunity to own this revolutionary chair, containing patented technology. As part of an ongoing effort, the company seeks a sponsor to provide an Eleva-Chair™ to every member of the U.S. military and coalition forces that has lost a limb in service of his or her country.
