Suitable Applications for Use
Fleeced Elbow Protectors for Pressure Relief are designed to be used around the house when relaxing or resting. They are not designed for use when out and about or on-the-go. They provide padded protection from harsh contact with surfaces and absorb shock from impacts, alleviating the pressure put on your elbows.
What Is Pressure Relief?
Pressure relief is the cushioning and softening of a surface that frequently comes into contact with vulnerable parts of the body. For example, a pressure mattress is designed to cushion the back so that the downward force generated by the body is evenly distributed, preventing the build up of pressure in one specific area.
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. These fleeced pressure relievers protect your joints from impact and disperse built-up pressure around your elbows, helping to prevent sores.
How Can Sheep Skin Elbow protectors help me?
Sheep Skin Elbow Protectors are designed to mitigate the pain and discomfort that individuals at risk of developing pressure sores can experience. Whilst they are not advised for use with pressure sores themselves, if you are diagnosed as being at risk of developing them and are already experiencing pain, they are ideal for cushioning and supporting your elbows.
Who Needs Elbow Protection?
Outside of individuals who are at risk of developing pressure sores and other similar ailments, Sheep Skin Elbow Protectors are an excellent shield for fatigued, sore, frail and bruised elbows. Whether you're elderly, recovering from surgery or you are experiencing calloused or brittle skin in the area, Sheep Skin elbow guards provide a soft, cushioned base to prevent contact worsening your condition.
How Do I Attach My Elbow Protectors?
These Elbow Protectors attach via an adjustable hook and loop soft strap for fitted yet comfortable wear. Simply place the affected arm inside the protector, adjusting the coverage of the guard until your arm is correctly positioned to maximise protection and comfort. Once the arm is in position, wrap the foam attachment over the arm before tightening until the guard is stable and in place.
Soft and Cushioned Exterior
It's not enough to simply cushion the inside of the elbow at the affected area. These Real Sheep Skin Elbow Protectors bolster the exterior with an incredible amount of wool in order to mitigate the effect of impacts and absorb shock before it can travel through the guard and cause damage to the elbow.
Pure-Wool Pile for Comfort and Heat Retention
Manufactured from pure wool pile, these luxurious protectors provide exemplary heat retention and temperature regulation, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter. Wool has excellent insulating qualities due to its crimped fibres and works to reduce moisture, helping to keep you dry and comfortable.
