How Do You Use a Leg Wedge Pillow?
Please view the image below to get an idea of how the wedge can be used. This is an example of how the wedge can be used to treat lower body injuries and promote effective healing. It is also sturdy enough to support other parts of the body, making it suitable for a range of different rehabilitation exercises and setups.
What Does a Raised Wedge Do?
The rehabilitation and recovery protocol for a number of lower body conditions requires the legs to be raised for a certain period to increase blood flow and circulation. This can become uncomfortable and counterproductive if the right support isn't in place. A raised wedge is both firm and soft enough to make this position feel natural, comfortable and beneficial, promoting healing.
Effective Insomnia Relief
For those who struggle to fall asleep or suffer from insomnia, a Leg Elevation Pillow will transform your sleeping experience, allowing you to gain a full and restful night's sleep. Elevating your legs before bed provides the proper angle for optimal blood flow whilst relieving pressure on your joints, ensuring your quality of sleep improves.
Who Should Use a Foam Positioning Pillow?
A patient requiring the lower limbs to be raised for any period of time needs to use a wedge with an adequate amount of padding and support. If a patient has damaged their thigh, hip or knee, chances are the recovery protocol for their rehabilitation will stipulate that ranged and raised stretching is required.
Improves Blood Flow and Circulation
Leg elevation is a safe and easy way to lower blood pressure and increase your blood flow and circulation around your body. When you are on your feet for long periods of time or are recovering from a recent injury, blood can pool in the lower part of your legs, causing swelling and discomfort. The leg elevation pillow places your lower legs on a gentle incline to encourage proper blood flow around your body and reduce swelling and aches.
Target Lower Back Pain and Realign Your Spine
The Foam Positioning Pillow provides targeted support for your lumbar and thoracic spine by propping your legs up comfortably and encouraging a healthy angle of your pelvis to reduce lower back pain. By removing the pressure on your hips and pelvis, the pillow helps realign the natural curvature of your spine and promotes proper posture.
Wipe Clean Cover for Easy Maintenance
Featuring a vapour permeable, wipe clean fabric cover, this wedge pillow repels dirt and stains, keeping your cushion clean for longer. Displaying a deep blue shade, the fabric also minimises stain visibility, ensuring you can use your cushion daily without worrying about staining or damage.
