M13❤️ 53"x 27" Massive Medical Sheepskin

You will receive this fantastic medical sheepskin as shown in this listing. Nat's believes that medical sheepskins should be kept at the lowest possible price that a small business can manage. These sheepskins are grade A quality, massive and heavy.

Medical sheepskins are not necessarily soft to the touch, they have a job to do that does not require them to be overly soft. Nat's places a heart emoji on the softer ones in the title area.

Medical sheepskin rugs significantly enhance patient comfort in a couple of key ways. Firstly, the exceptionally dense shearling wool naturally distributes pressure evenly across the body. This immediate relief translates to increased blood flow and a noticeable decrease in discomfort, especially at common and sensitive pressure points like heels, elbows, and the sacrum. This benefit is particularly vital for patients who are confined to one position for extended periods, as it helps prevent the development of pressure ulcers and provides gentle ankle support.

Secondly, the unique structure of the wool pile creates a continuously dry environment. This is due to the natural breathability of the wool fibers; lambswool effectively wicks away moisture and promotes consistent airflow. This combination maintains a dry, insulating comfort that is crucial for skin health, greatly reducing the risk of developing or worsening bedsores. Bacteria struggle to thrive in such a dry environment, which further supports skin integrity. This remarkable breathability is inherent to wool, a soft, hollow, spring-coil fiber.

All of our medical sheepskin feature wool pile that has been carefully trimmed to 30mm (1.25") to minimize matting, even with extensive use. These rugs boast extra dense wool and are convenient to care for, being machine washable or dry cleanable, though we generally recommend spot cleaning for minor issues. The pelts themselves are specially selected for their generous size and high wool density, making them incredibly versatile. While most commonly used in beds and wheelchairs, they are equally effective on recliners, chairs, and couches, providing that same therapeutic comfort.

Our medical sheepskins are tanned in Europe using the most environmentally friendly and skin-safe products and procedures, all of which strictly adhere to rigorous European standards. This commitment ensures a high-quality product that is both effective and ethically produced. We believe in providing the best comfort and care, a philosophy shared by experts like Angus Oliver in promoting patient well-being, directly benefiting those who need sustained pressure relief and improved blood flow.
