Welcome
The Sciatic Pain Relief Cushion is an entirely new form of relief for sciatica, developed by people who have suffered from the condition themselves.
About us
Our background includes nearly 20 years of experience in pressure area care, as well as remedial massage, health and wellbeing, medical devices and engineering.
Does it work?
The Sciatic Pain Relief Cushion has been beta-tested with 90% approval in user testing.
How does it work?
By placing the uniquely designed cushion on your chair every time you sit, you will be able to stretch your sciatic nerve whilst relieving pressure enabling you to gradually heal.
Today I tried the Sciatic Pain Relief Cushion in my car as I had a 3 hour non-stop journey. This is when I get sciatica – typically after an hour or so and I have to move my left leg where possible to get temporary relief. Today, I had no sciatica at all using the cushion. And getting out of the car after 3 hours I felt good, and not stiff at all. At first the seating position felt a bit odd and I thought that maybe the sciatica would be replaced by backache, but I soon got used to it and hours 2 and 3 were pain free! So very successful, and more successful than the gel cushion I had been using.

It's turned a painful 9.5 hours at work into a pain free experience day after day. I sit at a desk on a daily basis for work. Before using the cushion I was like a yo yo getting up from my chair stretching trying to ease the pain in my lower back. Since using the cushion I sit comfortably and pain free at my desk. I only get up for well being breaks and not because I'm in pain. It's changed my life.

I didn't think there was a solution to a nightly pain, other than just getting used to it and having regular sports massage to minimise the impact. It's a simple & instant solution to massively minimise the constant 'pinging' pain.

It has helped a lot for sitting at a computer and also for travelling in the car. In particular the cushion has meant that I can sit at my desk for a longer period without being in so much pain. Equally the car one has made a big difference to travel for me.
