Amara’s innovative deep well design is incorporated into the cushion’s high density Medflex™ or Viscotec™ visco elastic foam base under the ischials and coccyx. The rehabilitation specialists choice of pressure redistribution Viscotec™ visco elastic foam, Soft-Flo™ viscous gel, Gel-Flex™ solid gel or Dynamic Air Cell inserts, redistribute pressure and reduce shearing forces. Amara™ allows customized prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers.
