Examination/treatment chairs designed to facilitate podiatric examination, treatment, and/or minor surgical procedures. These chairs are typically adjustable in height and include armrests, a reclining back that may be tilted from a vertical to a horizontal or near-horizontal position, and individual leg sections and footrests with lifting and rotating capabilities to facilitate examination and treatment. The chairs may be mechanically operated or hydraulic or electrically powered; some chairs can be programmed to several standard positions. Foot examination and/or treatment devices may be partially or completely attached as integral components of the chair (and may be operated using the chair controls) or, more frequently, stand separately as self-supported or wall-mounted units.
