Return To ShopSheepskin is an exquisite material, giving your skin an irresistibly luxurious touch while feeling warm and soft against it. But this gorgeous material offers much more than comfort; medical sheepskin offers many remarkable health advantages. For example, it helps prevent pressure sores and bedsores by reducing friction on the skin, while simultaneously wicking away excess moisture – keeping patients dry and comfortable. Furthermore, medical sheepskin’s wool fibers counter bacterial germination, thus decreasing chances of blisters or sores developing on pressure points prone to bedsores development.
Wool crimped into wool naturally cushions the body and its ability to absorb pressure evenly distributes weight. Australian medical sheepskin has been proven to significantly reduce incidences of pressure ulcers through two studies conducted between 2004 and 2005; both showed that when Australian medical sheepskin was used as an overlaid mattress overlay for hospital patients who are low to moderate risks for pressure ulcers, its risk was reduced by 58% when compared to standard nursing care.
Australian medical sheepskin stands out as the superior choice when it comes to temperature regulation and pressure redistribution, outclassing synthetic health care products in these categories. Furthermore, its multiple washing capabilities make it both hygienic and durable as it resists fluids such as blood or urine spillage.
Medical sheepskin can be customized for various uses, including mattress pads or chair covers. Cut to meet specific bed or wheelchair sizes, these pads are easy to keep clean by placing in the washing machine at high temperatures; additionally, trimmed sections can easily conform to specific body parts such as arms, legs or knees.
People with long-term sitting or lying needs, such as spinal or neck injuries, chronic illnesses, the elderly and people living alone often rely on Australian medical sheepskin to provide comfort and protection from sores or ulcers. Common examples include people suffering spinal or neck injuries as well as elderly people. Australian medical sheepskin can also be fitted to car seats, wheelchairs and sofas to provide cushioning against sores while alleviating back problems and decreasing sweating associated with limited mobility. Not only can this material prevent sores from occurring but it can help alleviate back issues as well. Additionally, Australian medical sheepskin may help alleviate excessive sweating. Australian medical sheepskins offer luxurious softness and high wool density for an unparalleled sleeping experience. Additionally, wool absorbs moisture quickly to provide relief from excess sweating while protecting skin against frictional irritations that arise when someone sits or lies down for extended periods.
