Product information
Product Info:
Looking for a mouldable cushion to accommodate your unique seating posture? Look no further. This cushion uses a vacuum method, whereby air is removed from the cushion using a pump and it hardens into the desired shape. The moulding of the cushion can be easily modified by allowing air back into the cushion and restarting the moulding process. This feature allows for serial moulding, making this cushion ideal for children and adults, whose positioning needs may change over time.
This seat cushion with high lateral supports and a thigh abduction wedge, allows for more support to be provided for the user. The abduction wedge reduces contractures of adductors and maintains the lower limbs in the correct position. The high lateral supports and the anatomical shape of the cushion also prevents an anterior pelvic tilt and provides an appropriate surface for the bony prominences. Reducing the risk of developing pressure sores. The shape of the cushion can be adjusted easily if necessary.
MOULDABLE CUSHION
The main benefit of the bodyMap cushion is that it can be moulded into any desired shape. Allowing you to be able to accommodate and/or correct various types of postural deformities. The cushion also ensures that the individual is always seated in a certain position. This prevents the development secondary complications that can arise from incorrect seating.
Inflation Valve
This valve controls the amount of air in the bodyMap cushion. Removing air from the cushion by using the supplied pump, allows the cushion to be moulded to the desired shape. Remove the silver nozzle from the end, with a simple click, to allow air to flow back into the cushion and for the cushion shape to be changed/corrected.
Servicing Valve
The servicing valve can be found on the bottom of the cushion. It allows for the granules in the cushion to be easily increased or decreased. This is dependent on the individual needs and the type of moulding that is needed. It also allows for the top-up of granules after months of use.
Hand Pump
This small hand pump comes with the cushion and is used to mould the cushion into the desirable shape. It clips into the inflation valve easily and you pump it to remove air from the cushion.
It is recommended when you start moulding the cushion, that you connect the pump and remove some air from the cushion. This process allows for more accurate moulding than starting with a very soft cushion.
