Heel lifter
Heel Up Short is a one-patient heel lifter for pressure relief of the heel in mobile and seated users, especially wheelchair users.
Heel Up Short is inflatable and covered with non-woven felt, which is a skin-friendly material that absorbs moisture, transports heat, and is soft and comfortable.
In addition to relieving the heel, the heel lifter ensures that the Achilles tendon and malleoli (either of the two rounded bony projections of the tibia and fibula on the sides of each ankle) are relieved. It supports the forefoot and prevents drop foot.
The heel lifter has an ergonomic end which ensures that there is no increased pressure on the calf and the knee is not strained.
The heel lifter ensures stability without impeding on the user’s mobility.
