A bestselling item due to its comfort and versatility, the Medical Sheepskin Pelt is made with the highest quality Australian wool, carefully selected for thickness and pile density. Durable and resilient, it offers supreme therapeutic capabilities in a variety of settings, while retaining the lush softness that decorative sheepskin is known for. Medical sheepskin is naturally healing, recommended by doctors to ease the pain and discomfort of numerous medical conditions. Regular use can help the body recover, and greatly improve quality of life for those confined to one position for extended periods. The wool's high fiber count facilitates an even distribution of compression and insulation, activating circulation, increasing blood flow and alleviating sore pressure points. Because of sheepskin's ability to maintain a dry environment, the pelt helps prevent a build-up of bacteria and the development of skin irritations caused by friction or immobility. Its fibers are breathable and spring-like, absorbing moisture and promoting air flow, with natural thermal properties that help balance temperature, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Each pelt comes with an anti-slip Suede backing to secure it in place, with wool sheared to a uniform length of 1" inch (25mm), ensuring an upright pile that moves with the body for maximum support. Machine washable and easy to care for, the Medical Sheepskin Pelt can boost your recovery and transform your experience of well-being to a totally new level.
