In 2005, 15,800 people 65 and older died from injuries related to unintentional falls; about 1.8 million people 65 and older were treated in emergency departments for nonfatal injuries from falls, and more than 433,000 of these patients were hospitalized (CDC 2005). In their continuing efforts to fight these fatalities and injuries, Ella’s Bubbles is getting ready to launch their latest model of the walk-in bathtub.
Ella’s Bubbles is the premier manufacturer of deluxe walk-in tubs, safety tubs for senior bathing, exquisite glass mosaic tiles, and affordable bathroom fixtures. For four years, Ella’s has partnered with industry professionals to develop the most demanded and fashionable bathroom furnishings.
Two years ago Ella’s realized a market niche that was severely under accommodated in the bathroom fixture industry. Persons with mobility problems faced limited options while seeking bathroom ware that fulfilled their needs for safety, comfort, and style. Since then, Ella’s has shifted their business model of producing general bathroom fixtures to focusing on the development of walk-in tubs. Walk in bathtubs for seniors that are compliant with current ADA standards which cater to the needs of these at-risk demographics.
Walk in tubs are ideal for those who have a difficult time stepping over a standard tub. With an easy-to-open door and grab bar to hold onto for added support, the bather can safely and comfortably walk into the walkin bath. Next month, Ella’s Bubbles will be introducing their newest walk-in tub model, the G305. Unlike the cheap fiberglass walk in bathtubs their competitors produce, Ella’s walk-in tub is made from high quality acrylic.
Acrylic is a non-porous, thick, strong, and high-gloss material. Fiberglass is porous, fragile, and has a matte finish. The non-porous nature of acrylic walk in tubs keeps bacteria, mold, and mildew from building up. This not only prevents the spread of germs, but also makes cleaning the acrylic walk in bath incredibly easy. Fiberglass is susceptible to chips and cracks which allows dirt to collect and makes maintenance of the walk-in tub nearly impossible. Acrylic walk-in tubs will keep their color over time whereas fiberglass walk-in bathtubs have proven to fade and become dull in appearance.
The G305 walk-in tub is equipped with 10 hydrotherapy water jets and 7 air jets with an adjustable air flow rate control. This lets the bather decide how mildly or aggressively the massage of these jets is delivered. The hydrotherapy system in the G305 walkin tub has proven to provide relief for many ailments such as arthritis, back pain, inflammation, fibromyalgia, depression, multiple sclerosis, and many more.
In addition to walk-in tubs, Ella’s Bubbles will be adding other bathroom fixtures to their safety product line to greater serve the needs of those with mobility problems. Expect to see items such as grab bars and walk in showers that are as stylish as they are safe on their website www.ellasbubbles.com in the near future.
After substantial research and development and a few test models, Ella’s has perfected the G305 walk-in tub to fully accommodate those with a need for safe bathing. People living independently with mobility concerns are guaranteed the greatest benefit of all when using the walk in tub, peace of mind.
