Pressure Mapping

Improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities or mobility issues through best practice.

One of the ways we achieve this is through the use of pressure mapping technology, which helps to prevent and treat pressure injuries and aid in equipment selection.

Pressure injuries, also known as pressure ulcers or bedsores, are a common concern for wheelchair users who sit for prolonged periods. Those who are unable to re-position themselves or have impaired sensation are at an even greater risk. That’s where our team comes in.

Through pressure mapping consultations, our team of experienced therapists and technicians can assess your seating posture and identify areas of high pressure that may lead to pressure injuries. We can then provide appropriate equipment selection and set-up to reduce the risk of developing these injuries.

Our goal is to provide personalized solutions that cater to your unique needs, ensuring that you can enjoy a healthier, more comfortable life. So if you’re concerned about the risk of pressure injuries or want to book a pressure mapping consultation, don’t hesitate to contact us today. Our team is always ready to provide you with the best possible support and solutions.
