Relaxa Easy Lifting Belt Bath Lift
If you have mobility issues, using the bath in a safe and secure manner can be a challenge. Both lowering yourself in and climbing out can become difficult if you aren't as steady on your feet as you once were.

Without the need for wires, electricity or plumbing, the Relaxa works using a single handy remote control and a rechargeable battery unit that is wall mounted and easy to affix.

How Does a Belt Driven Bath Lift Work?
The Relaxa is made up of a single belt piece and two separately mounted "end" brackets that ensure you are safe and secure when sat on the belt. This incredibly safe and secure design features a taut belt that will bear your weight upon entry and exit whilst you are lowered and raised in and out of the water.
The belt is gradually unfelled as you are lowered and made taut and raised as you exit the bath.
Why Choose the Relaxa?
The Relaxa is a slimline bathing aid that's easy to install and which provides a more comfortable, soothing experience when submerged under the water. Unlike other mechanical options, the Relaxa uses a soft belt to lower and raise the user from the water, making it ideal for those with skin that prone to bruising and contact-based injury.
Easy to Use Remote Control
The Relaxa comes with a remote control that allows you to raise and lower yourself as and when required. This control is corded with a generous, springy wire that grants the user ample extension when in use.
A Soft and Comfortable Alternative
Unlike other clunky, plastic based lifts, the Relaxa Easy Lifter gently cradles you as you're lowered into and raised out of the water. This dignified approach to bathing is not only more comfortable - it's better for the health of your glutes and hamstrings.
A harder, casted plastic bath lift requires you to sit in one position, which can feel rigid and uncomfortable for users with back and postural issues. Sitting on the base of the bath when underwater, the Relaxa belt allows your body to flex and move naturally without forcing you into an uncomfortable sitting position.
Safety First...
The Relaxa Easy Lifting Bath Lift is operated using two control buttons which gently lower and raise the bather into and out of the bath when the user is seated on the reinforced polypropylene seat belt. This flexible and safe belt is firmly secured to a winding shaft within the cabinet case whilst the other end is anchored to a sturdy floor fitting located at the side of the bath.

No Mains Electricity Required
To be as practical and safe as possible in a bathroom environment, the Relaxa Bath Lift has been designed with a 24V DC rechargeable battery pack which eliminates the need for a mains electricity supply.
