Description
New Charcoal Fabric
The Supporta range will now be available in a modern charcoal fabric, offering a contemporary, neutral appearance that suits a wide variety of home and healthcare environments.
Enhanced Modular Design
The cushions have been updated with a more modular construction, providing greater adaptability to support users as their needs change over time.
The updated cushions will be introduced progressively as existing stock is sold through.
During this transition, you may receive either the current version or the updated charcoal version. Both versions meet the same quality and performance standards, and no action is required when placing orders.
Stable Lower-Leg Elevation
Resting with tired or uncomfortable lower legs can make it hard to find a stable position. The icare Supporta Leg Raiser provides contoured lower-leg elevation in a supine position, helping support comfort, positioning and pressure redistribution. Its shaped cradle helps maintain leg placement during rest and recovery, and elevation may assist circulation and fluid management when clinically appropriate. It is suitable for home care, rehabilitation and longer-term rest.
The supportive high-density foam construction is shaped into an integrated leg cradle rather than a flat wedge. This helps reduce rolling and slipping that can occur with ordinary pillows. A removable insert allows adjustable depth for a more personalised fit, and the zip-off washable cover supports simple hygiene. The dedicated form delivers firm, consistent elevation without relying on stacked pillows.
Use the Leg Raiser in bed for home recovery, rehabilitation or long-term support. It is also useful for people who want to reduce strain on the lower back while resting. The contour suits lower-leg positioning during extended bed rest, but anyone with persistent swelling, vascular concerns or an individual care plan should first seek appropriate clinical advice.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the icare Supporta Leg Raiser help with swollen legs?
Elevating the legs above heart level may assist circulation and help reduce swelling associated with prolonged sitting, standing or recovery. Persistent or unexplained swelling needs medical attention. The Leg Raiser is designed to support comfortable elevation, but it should not replace advice from a health professional.
Will my legs stay in position?
The contoured leg cradle is designed to help keep the lower legs comfortably positioned throughout rest, reducing the need for frequent repositioning. Its shaped surface offers more stability than a flat cushion, although comfort and positioning should always be checked for the individual user.
Why choose a leg raiser instead of ordinary pillows?
Ordinary pillows can shift, compress or separate, making elevation inconsistent. The icare Supporta Leg Raiser is purpose-shaped to provide stable, consistent lower-leg elevation and help maintain comfortable placement. Its integrated leg cradle also helps reduce the tendency for legs to roll or slip from the support.
How is it different from a standard foam wedge?
Unlike a flat wedge, the icare Supporta Leg Raiser has an integrated contoured leg cradle. This creates greater stability and helps maintain leg positioning while you rest. It is designed specifically for lower-limb elevation, whereas a flat wedge may be used for a wider range of general positioning tasks.
Can the Leg Raiser support pressure care?
By elevating the legs and supporting more even weight distribution, the cushion can contribute to a broader pressure-management strategy where clinically appropriate. It is not a substitute for an individual assessment, repositioning plan or other pressure-care measures recommended by a qualified clinician.
Is it suitable for extended bed rest?
Yes. The supportive foam construction is designed to provide consistent elevation during extended periods of bed rest or recovery. Check comfort, skin condition and positioning regularly, particularly for people with reduced sensation, complex needs or a clinician-prescribed positioning programme.
Where can the icare Supporta Leg Raiser be used?
It is suitable for home care, rehabilitation, hospital and aged-care environments where lower-limb elevation forms part of everyday care. It is intended for use while lying in a supine resting position and can help create a more comfortable lower-leg position during recovery or relaxation.
Can I adjust the depth of the cushion?
Yes. A removable insert lets you adjust the cushion depth for a more personalised fit and supportive position. Adjusting the depth can help the support suit different users. After changing the setup, make sure the legs are comfortably cradled and the position remains stable.
How do I clean the icare Supporta Leg Raiser?
The Leg Raiser has a zip-off washable cover for easier routine care and hygiene. Remove and wash the cover according to the care instructions supplied with it. Keeping the cover clean is useful for regular recovery, home-care or rehabilitation use.
