Customer Story: Why Dr. David Gay Chose Spa Luxe for His Practice

Posted by Anoos Dev on Jan 16th 2025

When starting his private practice, Texas Eye Aesthetics, Dr. David Gay, a Board Certified Oculofacial Surgeon in Central Texas, knew that outfitting his clinic with the right equipment was crucial to both patient satisfaction and the efficiency of his practice. After 15 years of experience in the medical field, Dr. Gay had worked with many types of treatment chairs, but none seemed to meet his exacting standards.

In any medical practice—whether dermatology, podiatry, plastic surgery, or oculoplastic surgery—the right treatment chair is essential. Dr. Gay needed a chair that could comfortably support patients during procedures, withstand the wear and tear of a busy clinic, and offer the flexibility required for the diverse range of treatments he provides.

Why Dr. Gay Chose the Spa Luxe 2246EBM Medical Treatment Chair

After evaluating several options, Dr. Gay chose the Spa Luxe 2246EBM Medical treatment chair from Massage Tools. Here’s why:

Exceptional Comfort for Patients

Dr. Gay emphasizes that the Spa Luxe treatment chair is remarkably comfortable for his patients. “It’s soft, and it sits fully up so patients can get in and out comfortably,” he explains. In his field, many procedures can be lengthy, so having a chair that maximizes patient comfort is key to keeping them at ease throughout the treatment. The Spa Luxe chair also converts to a full bed, which is essential for the variety of procedures Dr. Gay performs, whether medical or cosmetic.

Versatility and Functionality for a Variety of Procedures

Another reason Dr. Gay chose the Spa Luxe chair is its versatility. Whether performing delicate facial surgeries or injections, Dr. Gay needs a treatment chair that can be easily adjusted to accommodate different procedures. “This chair has buttons everywhere—sometimes I’m on the left side of the patient, sometimes on the right side, and this chair adjusts effortlessly,” Dr. Gay says. With the Spa Luxe chair, Dr. Gay can make precise adjustments, all while maintaining a sterile field. “I am scrubbed into surgery a lot, so my hands are sterile, and there are foot pedals,” he adds. The ability to adjust the chair with foot pedals ensures that Dr. Gay can make changes to the chair’s position without breaking sterility.

The chair’s features include 120° rotation, adjustable headrests, and multiple presets, allowing Dr. Gay to easily adjust the chair to suit the specific needs of each patient and procedure.

Key Features of the Spa Luxe 2246EBM Treatment Chair

The Spa Luxe 2246EBM Medical chair is packed with features that make it ideal for busy medical practices:

  • 120° Rotation: The chair rotates up to 60 degrees to either side, providing flexibility in adjusting the patient’s position. The rotation mechanism is smooth and easy to operate, giving practitioners the freedom to move the chair with ease.
  • Medical-Grade Upholstery: The chair comes with upgraded upholstery that is twice as durable as standard materials, ensuring long-lasting use and easy maintenance.
  • Articulating Headrest: The headrest can be adjusted based on the procedure, and it locks into place, making it ideal for facial treatments or injections where patient head stability is important.
  • FDA Listed: The chair is FDA-listed, ensuring it meets high standards for medical use, making it a safe and reliable option for a wide range of medical specialties.
  • Emergency Stop and Lock Features: For added safety, the chair includes an emergency stop switch and a lock button to prevent accidental adjustments during critical procedures.
  • Foot Pedal and Remote Control: The Spa Luxe chair offers both a foot pedal and a remote control for easy adjustment during procedures. This feature is especially important for keeping hands sterile during surgeries.
  • Quick Reset Button: One of the standout features of the Spa Luxe chair is the single-button reset, which allows the chair to quickly return to an upright position for easy patient entry and exit.

While Dr. Gay is an oculofacial surgeon, the benefits of the Spa Luxe treatment chair extend to other specialties. The 2246EBM Medical chair is also perfect for dermatologists, podiatrists, plastic surgeons, and other medical professionals!

Ideal for Dermatology Practices

Dermatologists often perform a variety of procedures, from skin biopsies to laser treatments, and the Spa Luxe chair’s adjustability ensures that both the practitioner and the patient are positioned correctly for each procedure. Its comfortable design is perfect for patients undergoing extended treatments.

Perfect for Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgeons require a versatile chair that can accommodate procedures commonly performed in-office, such as consultations, Botox and filler injections, skin resurfacing, and minor facial surgeries. The Spa Luxe chair’s multiple preset positions and adjustability make it an ideal choice for ensuring patient comfort and optimal positioning during these non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures.

Great for Podiatry

Podiatrists need a durable chair that provides excellent patient support for foot and ankle exams and surgeries. The Spa Luxe chair’s ability to adjust to various heights and angles ensures comfort for patients while allowing practitioners to perform a range of procedures with ease.
