Orthopedic chair cushion

The human body, whose work is associated with a long sitting on a chair or chair, requires special attention and care. His health depends on how comfortable the seat will be. Of course, after a hard day's work, you can visit the gym and stretch stiff muscles. However, not everyone has this opportunity, so the best solution in this situation would be an orthopedic pillow for sitting on a chair.

An orthopedic seat cushion on a chair is a litter of various shapes, having a special filler to give the seat optimum rigidity and the correct position of the spine. It is suitable for any chair, be it an office, computer, most common wooden or car seat.

This product is able to relieve the seemingly healthy person performing the work while sitting at the table from painful sensations in the pelvic region or lower back associated with the constant tension of the spine.

In itself, such a product is not a medical pill, but it is recognized as an effective prevention, saving the body from stagnation of blood in the pelvis, normalizing the work of the musculoskeletal system. Thanks to the orthopedic seat cushion, the possibility of pinching nerve endings is eliminated.

Such a pillow can give a poor-quality and uncomfortable chair (chair) more or less comfortable conditions needed throughout the day. Unlike uncomfortable furniture, it has the correct distribution of pressure on the tailbone, sciatic nerve and hip joints. Landing on such a pillow helps relieve muscle tension, relieves the genitals and gives the posture the correct position.

Sitting position is not natural to the body. In this position, the spine is subject to a maximum unnormalized load, and the internal organs of the pelvis do not receive enough blood supply in the required volume, which leads to general discomfort. The orthopedic pillow is the “right” addition to the chair (chair), unlike the usual foam rubber counterpart.

A useful orthopedic pillow is shown for different categories of users. However, you cannot buy it simply because you want: the consultation of a neurologist is initially necessary. Basically, the use of such a product is associated with the specifics of work or illness, due to which a person can not move in the right amount.

Users who need such a thing include:

• students;
• students;
• office workers;
• secretaries;
• programmers;
• aircraft pilots;
• bus drivers, truckers.

For medical reasons, such a thing is indispensable:

• in the last stages of pregnancy and in the first two or three months after childbirth;
• people with a coccyx trauma (relevant after operations on the pelvic organs);
• those who have a violation of posture (helps to straighten the shoulders);

• buyers with systematic pain in the lower abdomen;
• users with prostatitis, osteochondrosis, hemorrhoids;
• handicapped wheelchair accessible.

Such a thing is really useful for the spine. Due to the load distribution mechanism, the user's body weight will not put pressure on only one point: it will be distributed over the entire surface of the cushion. One of the advantages of this product is the prevention of the formation of pressure sores in people who are immobilized. The useful pillow allows to get the greatest possible comfort in a chair.

The group of orthopedic seat cushions does not include inflatable models: they do not have an orthopedic effect. In addition, rubber is harmful to health. Even if we take into account that such models can be of any size, be equipped with a textile cover made of cotton and cost expensive, this does not make them healthy.

An orthopedic chair cushion is a unique, functional thing. It can be simple or with an anatomical type of surface. With simplicity of construction, it has a lot of advantages:

Prices for orthopedic pillows for the chair (chair) are different.

The main types of orthopedic seat cushion filler are materials developed using the latest technologies. Some of them are successfully used in the manufacture of orthopedic mattresses, have excellent elasticity, elasticity, surface hardness and orthopedic effect. Conventionally, the pillows can be divided into two types: adapting to the human body and those that have to adapt independently.

Most often in the production of orthopedic pillows companies use:

• natural latex - a layer of elastic filler from the production of tree sap of a tropical tree Hevea,It has a fine-meshed structure with holes of different depths and diameters for multi-level support of the spine;
• artificial latex - finely porous polyurethane foam of type HR with latex impregnation, an analogue of natural latex without cells;
• viscoelastic foam - a unique material with a memory effect that can memorize the user's comfortable position when heated and returns to its original shape when it cools.

In addition, polyester is used in production.

Even with intensive use in such products will not create an environment for the appearance of fungus or mold. Such orthopedic pillows are durable, they provide a different weight load (up to a maximum of 120 kg) and, depending on the type of filler, can differ in height and degree of rigidity.

Orthopedic pillow is not able to cure a person from existing diseases. It is perfectly located on the chair and is a supporting support for the buttocks.Such a product is not bought spontaneously: you need a doctor's recommendation in accordance with the medical indicators.

Unfortunately, there are models on the market for such products that do not meet the requirements for such pillows. Not every item offered for purchase has a properly designed shape, so it is difficult for the user to choose an option for his weight.

Products with regular “T” class foam are not orthopedic, as the spongy-shaped layer of stuffing has no orthopedic effect. All he can do is soften the firm base of the chair.

The main part of the lines are models without a removable cover. This complicates the care of the pillow and requires more careful operation. Such products are not intended for pets. Washing such a pillow is difficult: they can not be twisted, dried on a rope, use heating devices to accelerate drying.

To seat on an orthopedic pillow was correct,you need to take into account the size (there should not be more chair seats), the shape of the model, the rules of use, otherwise you can harm your health, aggravating the problem.

An important nuance is the degree of rigidity of the surface on which the pad is purchased. If it is soft, there will be little sense from the pillow: it is suitable for coarse and moderately hard surface types. If the chair or chair is soft, a small thickness of the pillow can bend, which will not relieve the veins of the pelvic area from squeezing.

In models with anatomy, everything is clear: their relief indicates the correct location of the body. You should not experiment, changing the position of the back and front: it will not give the desired effect. If you want full support for your back, you should additionally get a lumbar pad-pad, putting it under your back on an office chair or chair. Using two pillows at the same time more efficiently: this will allow you to maintain orthopedic posture.

Sit on a pillow so that there is no pressure on the crotch. You can not move to the side. In models with sidewalls and a hole in the center, the back part is turned toward the back, while the sides should be at the same level (symmetrically with respect to the back): this way the body will be located exactly.

Another nuance is the degree of convenience: if uncomfortable while landing, this is a sure sign that the user is sitting incorrectly. Those who want to buy an orthopedic pillow for the first time, but are afraid that they will not be able to learn to sit properly, you can purchase an anatomical version of a rectangular shape made of latex. This is the best option from the line of orthopedic pillows.

In order not to run into a fake, it is worth exploring information about the properties of the material, the approximate cost, choose a practical color of the product and high-quality stuffing that does not change properties with time.

It is worth taking note of a few tips:

• Purchase is carried out exclusively in a reputable store with a good reputation. ideally, from the manufacturer itself or its official supplier;
• certificate of quality and compliance with hygiene standards are required;

• You should not assume that all products have the same characteristics for life. Better than latex and polyurethane foam, there is no packing — they do not rot, do not clot, are noiseless even under increased pressure, and are optimally rigid and elastic;
• weight control - a prerequisite, because when the pressure is overloaded, the airbag can shorten the service life by forming a nasty dent in the center;
• Anatomy foam is good for those who have no problems with posture;
• the pillow model can be determined by the doctor but not the seller who wants to sell the goods.
