Gel Seat Cushion is used to relieve pressure, promote blood circulation and improve posture by providing optimum comfort to those who prefer prolonged sittings on a wheelchair or regular chair. The sitting pillow contains silicone gel which comes with a removable cover of soft and flexible material to help distribute an individual's body weight to reduce muscular pain and lower back discomfort caused by spinal degeneration and injury. The gel cushion is padded with viscous gel pouches attached to a high-density foam base that allows you to sit upright with great comfort. Additionally, a gel seat cushion regulates pressure on the tailbone and alleviates coccyx pain and lower back pain while sitting for a long period in the office or at home.

Gel cushions are ergonomically designed to provide exceptional pressure distribution, which minimizes the risk of pressure ulcers. While the unique gel core decreases the body temperature, these cushions act as an extra layer of semi-stable fatty tissue reducing ischial and trochanter pressure. The blended gel bladders of gel cushion prevent moderate-to-high skin breakdown and accelerate good blood flow.

Health Products For You offers different sizes and shapes of gel seat cushions for wheelchairs, including bariatric or heavy-duty cushions.
