The Portable Wheelchair Shower
Shower Bay is a safe and portable shower designed for wheelchair users. It provides a true shower experience without dangerous wet-environment transfers or expensive home renovations. Shower Bay’s unique design allows for quick assembly in any room of the home. Just snap the unit together, connect it to a standard faucet, turn on the pump, and you’re ready to enjoy a relaxing shower.
A daily shower should be enjoyed, not dreaded. The warm, gentle massage of water running through our hair and down our back is one of the best parts of our day. Most of us take this rejuvenating sensation for granted, but many people with mobility limitations miss their shower time because it’s too dangerous and time-consuming for a family member or caregiver to assist them.
Safety First
Easy ramp access allows for a safe and smooth transition into the shower with a shower wheelchair. Both the user and caregiver will gain peace of mind knowing that they will never have to do a scary wet-transfer over a tub ever tub ever again.
