Posture-Temp Pressure Relieving Cushion
The Posture-Temp Pressure Relieving Cushion uses temperature-sensitive, open-cell visco-memory foam that gradually conforms to the user while seated. This increases the contact area between the body and cushion to support medium-level pressure redistribution and everyday seated comfort.
Choosing the Right Size
MoveSmart offers two versions: 40 × 45 × 7.5 cm and 45 × 51 × 7.5 cm. Choose the size that sits fully and securely on the chair base without overhang, while matching the user's seating width and depth. The larger version is useful where a broader or deeper seat surface is required.
Posture-Temp or Medi-Soft?
Both use temperature-responsive visco-memory foam for medium pressure redistribution. The Posture-Temp Pressure Relieving Cushion is the more size-flexible option, with two available footprints and a bi-elastic protective cover. The Medi-Soft Chair Cushion is the simpler single-size 40 × 45 × 7.5 cm option.

Pressure-Care Note
The cushion is designed to support pressure redistribution, but no cushion can guarantee prevention or treatment of pressure injuries. Users with fragile skin, existing pressure damage or higher clinical risk should have their seating needs assessed appropriately.
Choosing and Positioning the Support
Posture-Temp Pressure Relieving Cushion should support the intended body area without forcing the user into an uncomfortable posture. Consider the chair or bed dimensions, the person’s body size and the amount of firmness or contouring preferred. Small changes in placement can alter how the support feels, so it is worth taking time to position it while the user is settled in their normal sitting or lying position.
Check the fit again after a short period of use and inspect the skin where pressure or heat may build up. Covers and foam components should be cared for according to their labels so their shape and finish are maintained. Where the product is being considered for pressure care, persistent pain or significant postural needs, seek advice from an appropriate health professional.
Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available?
MoveSmart offers 40 × 45 × 7.5 cm and 45 × 51 × 7.5 cm variants.
How do I choose between the two sizes?
Match the cushion to the user's seating dimensions and make sure it sits fully on the chair base without overhang or instability.
What type of foam is used?
Temperature-sensitive open-cell visco-memory foam.
How does the foam respond while sitting?
Body warmth gradually softens the foam so it conforms more closely to the user's shape and increases the supported contact area.
What level of pressure support does it provide?
The product is described as providing medium-level pressure redistribution.
How is this different from the Medi-Soft Chair Cushion?
The Posture-Temp cushion is available in two sizes and uses a bi-elastic protective cover. The Medi-Soft Chair Cushion is a single-size 40 × 45 × 7.5 cm option.
Is the cover waterproof?
Yes. The protective cover is waterproof while also being designed to remain breathable.
Does the cover stretch?
Yes. The bi-elastic two-way stretch construction allows the cover to move with the cushion and user.
Is it stain resistant?
Yes. The cover is specified as stain resistant.
Can it be used in a wheelchair?
It may suit some wheelchairs if the dimensions, posture and seating setup are appropriate. For long-term wheelchair use or higher pressure-care needs, professional seating advice may be appropriate.
Can it be used on an office or dining chair?
Yes, provided the chair offers a stable base large enough to support the cushion without overhang or movement.
Does it prevent pressure injuries?
No specific outcome is guaranteed. Pressure care depends on the user's condition, seating, repositioning and broader care plan.
How thick is the cushion?
Both current sizes are approximately 7.5 cm high.
