Osteoporosis is a condition that affects many people in Australia and is a condition
that progressively affects the skeletal structure. Any bone can be affected by osteoporosis
but the most common are the bones in the hip, spine, wrist, ribs, pelvis and upper
arm.
Osteoporotic fractures can lead to changes in posture and bone deformity of the
spine resulting in chronic pain and disability.
Therefore it is important to consider a
bed that is very gentle on the body and which provides the capability to adjust
the level of support to improve posture and decrease peak pressure on hips and shoulders.
