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.
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 Foam Ring 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.
Quick and Easy Application
Suitable for personal and professional use, this rehabilitation ring takes the hassle out of recovery. No more arranging stacks of pillow or using ropes and pully systems. Simply place your foot and ankle through the hole, secure the fastenings and relax.
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.
Irritation Free Design
Thanks to a circular design, the foot and ankle seamlessly fit through to rest in the area in between. The surface of the pillow itself is skin-friendly and is suitable for use over long periods thanks to its irritant free manufacturing process.
