The cover of the cushions is made of a material called Polyurethane coated polyester, which is a light polyester material that has a fire-retardant polyurethane coating on both sides. Furthermore, the cover is treated with a water-repellent agent.
This bolstering cushion is 125 cm long, making it ideal for placing in front of the chest or in the back to create a comfortable and relaxing position. It can also be used to help support clients who cannot hold themselves upright in the side-lying position.
This positioning cushion can be used for both children and adults, but if a longer support cushion is needed, LEJRELET Tube 250 is a great alternative with the same unique effects.
Tactile Stimuli
With a weight of approximately 2,3 kilos, this body bolster is ideal for stimulating the sensory nervous system to calm and soothe clients or patients in need of tactile stimuli. This can be useful for patients with cognitive dysfunctions, sensory deprivation or a general need for reassurance and comfort.
The body pillow can also be used when turning uneasy or externalizing clients. In this case, the body cushion can be placed on top of the client before commencing the turning process. The weight of the cushion has a calming effect as it stimulates the sensory nervous system and hugging the cushion while being turned with a VENDLET system, creates an overall calm experience, and minimizes externalizing behaviours.
Pressure Relieving Abilities
This cylindrical bolstering cushion is filled with high-quality pressure-relieving foam granulate. This makes it ideal for patients or clients in risk of developing pressure ulcers and for relieving existing pressure ulcers.
Placing the client in the side-lying position with the cushion in front of the body can create comfort at relieving pressure on the shoulders, sacrum, and coccyx.
Likewise, the cushion can be placed behind the client for a slightly elevated supine position that relieves pressure on one side of the body.

Read moreLEJRELET Tube 250 can be wiped clean with water and disinfectant liquids or poured over with boiling water. We recommend that the pillow is not machine washed, as water can seep through the seams, after which the foam takes a long time to dry. The cover cannot be removed, and we recommend that no other cover be placed on the outside of the pillow, as this may reduce the effects of the cushion.
The LEJRELET Tube 125, Tube 250, Pad Low and Oval are all made of 100 % viscoelastic foam. The foam is pressure relieving, provides a large support surface and high comfort for the client, as the foam forms in the desired position.
LEJRELET Wedge and Pad High are both made with a core of polyurethane foam covered with visco-elastic foam. This combination makes the cushions firm and supportive as well as provides an effective pressure relieving quality.
No, you can not. All the covers are either welded or sewn together. The only model with a zipper is the LEJRELET Pad High. It is made that way purely out of constructional reasons. The cover is not intended to be removed and we do not sell spare covers for the cushions separately.
