Manufacturer: Back Support Systems, Inc. Brand: Back Support Systems Model: BSS 510 SS Color: Sherpa

Made of environmentally safe, medical-quality, polyurethane foam with a washable, hypoallergenic cotton blend cover. The majority of us have hip flexion contractures, i.e., an ilio-psoas muscle which has become shortened due to the amount of time we sit. The gymnasts we see who have maintained the flexibility to touch their gluteus maximus with the back of their head do not, needless to say, have hip flexion contractures. When the ilio-psoas muscle is tight, it becomes like a stretched rubber band when we lay supine and because the weight of the leg is greater than that of the abdomen, the Lumbar spine is pulled into excessive lordosis and the result is discomfort. Notice that the first thing people do when they roll to their side is bend their hips and knees. This is the same position as when they are using "The Angle". Placing "The Angle" under the knees flexes the hip which brings the insertion end of the ilio-psoas muscle (one end of the rubber band) closer to its origin in the lumbar-sacral region of the spine. This results in less tension on the muscle and the lumbar spine can return to its neutral comfortable position.

The manner in which one verifies a hip flexion contracture is by using the Thomas position as taught by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons.

Manufacturer: DJO Consumer LLC Brand: ProCare Model: PC151PA01 Color: Blue

The ProCare Arm Elevation Foam Support Pillow is a sculptured foam support which allows you to maintain the proper arm position and aids in reducing edema (swelling) for pre/post-cast or post-surgical procedures. It provides comfortable, effective support with minimal restraint. It's excellent for use on wrist, arm and shoulder surgeries, and mastectomy patients. It's constructed of dense, fire retardant foam that prevents compacting. Elevating your arm on traditional pillows can be difficult because your arm can roll side-to-side. In addition, traditional pillows can become compacted and flatten out over time, making the elevation less effective. The ProCare Arm Elevation Foam Support Pillow measures 13.25" L x 12" H. One size fits most.
