Posture Support

Can it be used when there are pets in the house?

Because Stabilo’s vacuum technology works by the cushion being airtight, it will puncture if bitten by a pet. Its covering wipes clean.

Do you have to remould every time it’s used?

No! Stabilo cushions’ vacuum technology means once formed as required, the shape is fixed yet infinitely adjustable whenever you need to alter it. Once you have moulded the shape as you need, it takes seconds to fix the mould using the pump provided. Stabilo cushions will hold the shape for days/weeks.

Does it have pressure relieving properties?

Yes! Because of the millions of tiny beads within Stabilo cushions, there is no single pressure point to cause distress nor skin damage. We train you as part of the process in how to form the shape without any creases to further alleviate any risk of pressure.

How do I get a vacuum posture cushion?

Depending on your circumstances you may be able to source one through your local Social Services. We do sell direct to the public, subject to a free no obligation assessment. Please call 01978 821875 or fill in the form @ https://www.aatgb.com/posture-cushions/ to arrange a free no obligation assessment.

What is a vacuum posture cushion?

A vacuum posture cushion is in essence a beanbag from which the air is removed once the desired shape is achieved to retain that outline. Versions range from simple rolls to mattress-sized. Its ability to retain its shape and perfectly mirror/correct the user’s anatomy means there is no need for frequent re-plumping of cushions, moving the person to avoid pressure sores. Its design and construction makes it suitable for numerous scenarios, including supported bathing, sleeping, sitting, in wheelchairs, canoes, aircraft… the list is endless. See https://www.aatgb.com/posture-cushions/ to appreciate the diversity of uses.

What’s the difference between a fixed-mould seat and a vacuum posture cushion?

A fixed mould seat is permanently fixed in the shape ordered. A vacuum posture cushion is infinitely remouldable, whenever needed, at home, by the trained carer to deliver postural comfort and correction with mm precision giving the flexibility to quickly address variations in requirements.

Where can vacuum posture cushions be used?

With their advanced neoprene cover, vacuum posture cushions can be used anywhere, at home and beyond, even in the bath, swimming pool, sea- wherever you would need cushion support. They can be wiped clean and air dry quickly.

BASE DORO, VACUUM POSTURE CUSHION

Base Doro is a stabilizing seat with a prominent pommel wedge that enables abduction of legs and side laterals which stabilize the whole pelvis. It is an upgrade of Base Hilo cushion. Base Doro enables hips correction and stabilization of the entire pelvis. Moreover side laterals of the cushion reach above the hip girdle, correcting and relieving pressure at the same time.
Seat with pommel wedge and side laterals to stabilize pelvis
The shape of cushion allows to increase torso control among users who feel its lack while sitting on regular cushions
Possibility of simultaneous hip correction and stabilization of the entire pelvis provides an impulse for active users to increase torso movement during daily activities, thus indirectly increasing the strength of certain skeletal muscle groups
For people with hip dislocation and hip rotation, the cushion provides comprehensive stabilization, prevents the aggravation of deformity, increases the comfort of daily activities, and often reduces pain
The side laterals of the cushion reach above the hip girdle, thus perfectly stabilising it in a given position, correcting and relieving its pressure at the same time
