What does a pressure cushion do?

A pressure cushion works by redistributing pressure from the most vulnerable areas of your body, such as your hips, spine, and legs.

Whether you're sitting in a chair for hours or lying in bed, a pressure relief cushion ensures that pressure doesn’t build up in one spot. This helps protect the skin and underlying tissue from becoming damaged and forming sores.

With our pressure cushions, you’ll enjoy improved comfort, reduced risk of injury, and better overall health.

What are the benefits of a pressure relief cushion?

Pressure relief cushions offer numerous benefits, especially for individuals who are at risk of developing pressure sores:

• Even weight distribution: Pressure relief cushions for pressure sores help spread your weight evenly, reducing the risk of damage to your skin and underlying tissue.
• Improved comfort: Our pressure ulcer cushions are made from high-quality materials like memory foam and air cells, which mould to your body’s shape for extra comfort.
• Pressure sore prevention: Prolonged pressure on certain areas can lead to bed sores. Using our cushions, you can prevent this buildup and reduce your risk.
• Support for long periods: Whether you're using a pressure relief cushion for elderly individuals, people in wheelchairs, or bedridden people, our cushions are designed to provide comfort and stability for extended sitting or lying down.
• Enhanced mobility: Our pressure cushions for elderly users or anyone with reduced mobility help provide support and improve comfort, making it easier to maintain a stable position without feeling uncomfortable.
