Question 2

What Choice of Portable Couches are available to meet my requirements? 

Our Experts Answer...

The Beautelle Range of Portable Couches features a total of ten different models. Each of these models can be made in a choice of height, width and foam specifications giving over 100+ variations for you to choose from with an extensive upholstery choice of vinyl colours.
Available on selected models are useful couch attachments e.g. face cradles and arm supports, which are most effective 'tools' to offer enhanced support for the client and allow for a more effective treatment. Certain models feature shaped end sections to enable knee access, an important consideration for any seated therapist.

Question 3

How Comfortable will the couch be for my client?

Our Experts Answer...

You need to establish that the couch has the correct padding (thickness), firmness (density) and is the correct width and length.

An adjustable backrest support and perhaps a specialist knee or foot lift will help maximise your client’s comfort during a treatment. These criteria depend very much on both your clientele and the treatment/s you are practising.

Question 4

How can I tell the Quality of a Couch ?

Our Experts Answer...

To gauge the quality of any couch our advice is to ask the simple question “What working weight will the couch take?” A couch constructed from good quality materials should have a load bearing ability of between 24-30 stone (159-190.5 kilo) & sustain heavy weights combined with pressure to enable it to be both stable and durable, even at higher height settings, all Beautelle couches are built to withstand professional heavy usage.

Many Portable Couch models may look very similar on the surface, but this does not reflect the actual quality of the materials used in their construction, which can vary tremendously. Key areas to look at which have an effect on the optimum load bearing are the thickness of the aluminium used and the grading of the under board. In addition tensor cable support systems can provide extraordinary strength and stability to a portable couch. The quality of the foam padding and upholstery covering will also help determine the overall quality.

Question 5

What Safety Standards does the Couch meet?
