Heelmedix Pressure Relief Heel Protector

The Heelmedix Pressure Relief Heel Protector has been specially designed for the prevention and care of heel pressure ulcers. The Heelmedix Heel Protector works by completely off-loading pressure on the heel and distributing the pressure. The open heel design of the Heelmedix Protector allows for airflow and easy clinical checks of heel conditions.

The Heelmedix Pressure Relief Heel Protector comes with an inner lining which helps reduce friction and shear on vulnerable heels. The inner material is also absorbent, keeping the skin of the foot dry. Whilst being an excellent heel pressure relieving device, the Heelmedix also helps to protect the user against foot drop.
