Find Comfort in a Cooling Wheelchair Cushion
A cooling wheelchair cushion or pad can make the critical difference in comfort. The right cushion should meet a number of criteria, among them the ability to transport moisture away from the body to keep you dry and cool. It should be porous enough to allow proper air circulation.
Cushions can be found in a variety of materials, including thermoplastic urethane, elasto-gel, and foam.
A cooling wheelchair cushion is especially important for those who spend most of their time in the chair.
When you’re looking for the right cushion, make sure it provides support and even weight distribution to help prevent pressure sores. But don’t overlook the importance of finding a cushion that will help keep you cool and dry.
