Targeted Pressure Relief for Heels

According to Wound Management and Prevention, heels are among the most common areas where pressure ulcers can form as they are exposed to friction, moisture and concentrated force when laying in bed for extended periods of time. By elevating the foot and ankle, pressure is taken off the heel and the gentle incline promotes proper circulation and alignment, allowing for a more restful and comfortable nights sleep.

Why Is Relieving Pressure Important?

If you have been assessed as susceptible to pressure sores and ulcers, it's vital you work to relieve the amount of pressure placed on the affected area. If you don't, the tissue underneath can puncture, tear or even rupture, forming painful sores, ulcers and abscesses. The Foam Foot Elevator disperses built-up pressure around your heels, helping to prevent sores.

Reduce Pressure at The Calf and Ankle

The Foot Elevator is an ideal choice for individuals who spend long periods of time in bed and who therefore often suffer from excess pressure on the foot and heel. The Leg Trough Cushion elevates the foot so that the heel does not come into contact with the surface of the bed, eliminating direct pressure and instead supporting the foot with comfortable foam.

Trough Design to Redistribute Pressure

Utilising a trough design, this foam cushion works to redistribute pressure evenly along the full length of the calf, reducing the pressure on the Achilles tendon and popliteal vein. By cradling the lower leg, the firm foam acts as a compression device helping to reduce tension built-up in the calf muscles. 

Quick and Easy Application

Suitable for personal and professional use, this rehabilitation cushion takes the hassle out of recovery, free from excessive fastenings or straps. No more arranging stacks of pillow or using ropes and pully systems, simply place your foot and leg in the trough and relax with your foot comfortably elevated.

Promotes Healing and Rapid Rehabilitation

While the Foot Elevator is great for anybody who requires long-term comfort, it is also suitable for anybody who has suffered a foot injury or who has recently had surgery. By lifting the foot away from the bed, it allows the area the time it needs to heal by reducing the risk of it becoming irritated by the bed surface, encouraging faster rehabilitation. Please note that a medical professional should be consulted before using the Foot Elevator to support an injury.

Wipe-Clean Vapour Permeable Cover 

Pressure relief cushions and aids sit in close contact with the body for extended periods of time, therefore easy sanitation and maintenance is essential to reduce unnecessary workload. This vapour permeable cover allows moisture, sweat and vapour to completely pass through the covers fabric, preventing liquid from lingering and damaging the fabric of your cushion . It is both wipe-clean and machine washable for easy maintenance and effortless sanitation.
