13 best cushions for wheelchairs

Product description

Sitting is meant to offer the body relief and a way to rest. However, many people who have suffered an injury or have developed back pain over the years, find that sitting can increase pressure on affected areas and cause more pain than comfort. The key to making sitting enjoyable again is to relieve pressure in the correct places.

Plixio’s cooling memory foam seat cushion features a U-shaped design and a contoured surface. At the rear of the cushion there is a small cut out, which leaves the coccyx, more commonly known as the tailbone, hovering over the sitting surface. This, in turn, eliminates any pressure from the surrounding areas.

Layered over the memory foam is a padded sheet of cooling gel. This added feature helps keep users cool throughout the day and adds an extra layer of comfort and cushion. The well-ventilated, mesh cover allows proper airflow so that users can benefit from this cooling feature all day.

This pillow is commonly used by people who are experiencing:

• Back pain due to an injury, herniated or bulging disc
• A broken or fractured tailbone, or pain from coccydynia
• Pain due from pregnancy or from post-partum complications
• Pain, numbness or discomfort after sitting for long periods of time
• Sciatica in the legs, lower back or hips

Where it can be used:

• On commutes: Cars, buses, airplanes
• At the office: In desk chairs or uncomfortable office seats that need extra padding
• In wheelchairs or mobility scooters

Every gel seat pad comes with a full three-year warranty that protects against any damage or defects. Your pillow won’t go flat, but if it does send it back for a FREE replacement.

• Help alleviate sciatica and lower back pain: Plixio’s coccyx pillow has been ergonomically designed to help take pressure off of the user’s lower back or tailbone and offers orthopedic tailbone pain relief while sitting. This gel cushion promotes healthy posture and proper spinal alignment.
• Ergonomically shaped with pressure-relieving cut out: The U-shaped design, with its cut-out center and contoured surface, removes pressure from the coccyx to ensure the tailbone hovers over the surface of the seat, thereby alleviating any discomfort caused by sitting for extended periods.
• Cooling gel memory foam seat cushion: This coccyx cushion is made from high-quality memory foam to offer comfort and to help relieve back pain, tailbone pain, and sciatica. Layered over the memory foam is a padding of cooling gel meant to keep users cool and comfortable throughout the day. This cushion is ideal for office chairs, wheelchairs, airplanes, or for use in a car. Great for short and long trips.
• Includes washable cover, anti skid bottom and carrying handle: This pillow features a zippered, removable mesh cover that is completely machine washable to make cleaning easier. The case also features a non-slip, rubber bottom to ensure the cushion will stay firmly positioned in a seat and a convenient handle for easy transport.
• Use in the office or while traveling: Each coccyx pillow measures 18” x 14” x 3” and is great for travel. Each cushion comes with a full three-year warranty that protects against any damage or defects.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the cushion waterproof
Answer:	Thank you for your question. No the cushion isn't waterproof. However, it does include removable poly/cotton machine washable cover.
Question:	How does this cushion compare to the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/b000fzvtqo/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=utf8&psc=1&smid=atvpdkikx0der
Answer:	Is a touch too firm for my taste when used in a regular chair but is just about perfect in my wheelchair(handles the normal sag you get after a short while). Found this item to take care of almost all unwanted movement{http://www.amazon.com/dp/B016BF9GVG/ref=twister_B00P7SZF82?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1} I just used 1 strip in the rear against the back flap and 2 strips underneath (1 front/1rear). I just cut it to desired length (14" so it doesn't show) and pressed it in place (regular duty doesn't grip strongly enough) so I used the "industrial" strength to get that little extra needed gripping power.
Question:	My Duro-Med cushion keeps slipping off the wheelchair. Any solutions folks
Answer:	You could try gluing some velcro to tge wheelchair and to the cushion. You could also try the rubber mat used for keeping carpets in place from Home Depot
Question:	is it waterproof
Answer:	No, it's not waterproof.

User questions & answers

Question:	can this get wet.. looking to use it on shower chair
Answer:	I have not tried to use it in the shower but it seems as if it would keep you from slipping around on the shower chair and it seems as if it would dry out is hung over the chair- it is not expensive and might be worth a try-it is extremely light weight. I did not feel as if it provided much cushioning for my bottom when I had to sit for awhile and I only weigh 120 pounds. I felt as if I squished it down when I sat on it. I'm able to get around now so I don't use it.
Question:	Do you have a cover for the foam chair pad
Answer:	I went on a mission in search of a cover for this exact pad to find a way to cover it for my wife to use in her wheelchair and in dialysis. I went to walmart in their fabric section and spoke with the lady in fabrics. She suggested a felt material and fabric glue that has worked very well so far!
Question:	What size fits a queen size bed
Answer:	This egg crate cushion was for my mom’s wheelchair. You would have to do a search specifically for a queen size bed.
Question:	Is this a one piece seat and back cushion
Answer:	I have the seat cushion only. I like it very much.
