Adjustable Beds: Medical-Grade Support for Independence, Recovery and Best Sleep.
Orthex adjustable beds are true home-care beds built on a solid medical frame and engineered for long-term reliability. Our adjustable beds combine precise positioning, powerful and silent lift systems and a beautiful residential look to provide more comfort and support safe daily care.
Independent head and foot positioning
Independent head and foot control helps you find a comfortable position for breathing and digestion, while adjustable legs (available on SOPHIA 3) support circulation and help reduce swelling. Smooth adjustments make it easy to relax, read or watch TV without stacking pillows.
Pain management and full-body comfort
Proper positioning helps relieve lower back pain, joint stiffness and pressure points. Supporting the full body improves rest and promotes a more comfortable recovery at home.
Respiratory and digestive comfort at night
Elevating the upper body improves breathing and can help reduce snoring, creating calmer and more restful nights. It also supports digestion by promoting better positioning and helping reduce acid reflux symptoms.
Hi-lo height adjustment
SOPHIA 3 and SOPHIA 4 models include hi-lo height adjustment, allowing the entire bed to raise and lower. This improves safety, facilitates transfers and lets caregivers work at a more ergonomic height—an essential feature for professional home-care beds.
