yes I found equipment in Vancouver and I rented it. altra-pro therapuetic equipment. 604- 763-1306 he delivered and set up and picked up afterward too. machole12, do not let your FIL come home too early. it hurts like he..... to come over the passes iif you are not in control of the driving. and definetley do not go hwy 5. take 3.
Also research massage tables and chairs. Other than using an *overpriced* foam pillow with a hole cut out of it for my face, I used a (fortunately) borrowed massage table and chair. They worked great. Also, the mirror gadget is probably worth getting too, if you want to see straight ahead but keeping your head down - like watching TV.
Good luck and best wishes for recovery.
were you able to find equipment in Vancouver? was it costly?
In Penticton area and need face down equipment for next week - father in law is going down for surgery - just found out. Please post if you have equipment to sell in Penticton area
Thank for posting. I have googled, finding the equipment in Vancouver, BC has been slow going. but I did find some. I have to travel to Van. for the surgery and cant come home over a mountain pass until the gas bubble has gone down some, I understand this could take 2 / 3 weeks?
Google face-down recovery or equipment or vitrectomy equipment
