At Para Mobility, we hear stories every week from families, therapists, medical teams and aquatic centre operators who’ve experienced the difference the Luna makes. Whether it’s lifting a child into the bath, supporting rehabilitation, or assisting ageing adults to remain at home safely, the Luna is about more than mobility—it’s about quality of life.
Here are our top eight reasons why the Luna Ceiling Hoist transforms daily life for individuals with mobility challenges, carers, and families.
1. Bed to Wheelchair Transfers
Safely lifting a person from bed to their wheelchair without strain or risk of injury is one of the most common—and life-changing—uses. It makes mornings smoother and preserves energy for the rest of the day.
2. Bathing and Showering
The Luna can transfer someone into a bath or accessible shower with dignity, safety, and ease. No more awkward lifts or risky manoeuvres—just calm, controlled transitions that support independence and hygiene.
3. Toilet Transfers
Using a ceiling hoist to assist with toileting means greater comfort, privacy, and a reduced risk of falls or injuries for both user and carer. It can allow more frequent, dignified access to the toilet rather than relying on other supports.
4. Changing and Dressing
Whether at home, in a school, or a care facility, the Luna can be used to move a person onto a change table or assist with dressing—especially useful for individuals who use hi-lo change tables or need additional support.
5. Therapy Sessions
During physiotherapy or occupational therapy, the Luna can help with positioning, posture correction, or supported standing exercises—without the need for multiple carers to manually lift or reposition.
6. Repositioning in Bed or Chair
Even within the same space, the Luna can assist with gentle repositioning to avoid pressure sores, support comfort, or help with sleep preparation—all without physical strain.
7. Supporting Post-Surgery Recovery
For individuals recovering from surgery (like spinal or hip surgery), the Luna offers temporary support with transfers, reducing pain, avoiding re-injury, and allowing for a faster, more independent recovery at home.
8. Reducing Carer Fatigue and Injury Risk
While this one benefits carers more directly, it’s life-changing in its own way. By replacing manual lifts with powered, smooth hoisting, carers can avoid back injuries, burnout, and stress—improving long-term sustainability of this incredibly vital service.
Our team at Para Mobility offers obligation-free consultations, friendly advice, and genuine support—because accessibility should feel empowering, not overwhelming.
