Product Description
Coccyx Cushion - Tailbone Cushion The Visco Memory Foam Coccyx Cushion is made of high quality standard density memory foam (3.5lb) and helps relieve back pain by reducing the pressure on the spine and coccyx. The temperature-sensitive coccyx pillow foam interacts with body heat to gently mold to your shape and provides customized comfort. The cut-out section eliminates painful pressure on the tailbone. Sloping wedge shape helps correctly align spine and tilts the pelvis forward to restore the natural lumbar curve, a position often recommended by doctors to provide maximum comfort and relief. Can be used with almost any seat: Car seat, Office chair, Home.....virtually anywhere. Coccyx (tailbone) bone pain can come from local trauma or childbirth. A fall on the tailbone can stress the ligaments or injure the attachment to the sacrum. In a significant percentage of tailbone pain the cause is unknown (always check with your doctor for diagnosis and proper care). Individuals with tailbone or coccyx pain (Coccydynia) often find sitting is the most aggravating position. Many tailbone pain sufferers find the most comfortable cushion is the type with a cut-out at the back, underneath the coccyx so that no direct pressure is placed on the coccyx. What is memory foam? Visco-elastic memory foam was originally developed by NASA and used on space shuttles to relieve pressure on astronauts caused by G-Forces during take off. It is several times denser than regular polyurethane foams, is temperature sensitive and always recovers to original shape. It is also called slow-recovery foam (see picture). Due to its distinctive property in relieving pressure, memory foam has been developed into many products such as pillows, toppers, wedges, supports, etc., to benefit millions of consumers worldwide.

 Best help for your back November 2, 2008
Been using it for 2 years now, it's the best help I got from any product created to help back pain. I use it with a simple plastic apple chair and have junked my expensive executive chair.
my uncle loved this October 28, 2008

My uncle was very thin after cancer treatment and his tail and hip bones hurt when he sat for any length of time. This cushion allows him to sit without pain. He loves it.
helpful October 24, 2008
I bruised my tailbone when I fell on a hiking trip. It wasn't improving until I bought this cushion and started using on my desk chair. I'm starting to feel better after just a couple of weeks of use.

I bought a regular, cheap foam coccyx cushion about 3 years ago when I developed a pilonidal condition. It still helps to take pressure off of my tailbone but doesn't provide much cushion for my ample, yet bony butt. I have a computer job that involves several hours of sitting. Although my old cushion was sufficient, I wanted something softer. The first thing I noticed about this cushion was that it's much denser than my old one. At first when I sat on it I thought it was too firm but after sinking into it for a minute I found it to be quite comfortable! The cover is made of a very soft material and has a zipper for easy removal. I also like that this cushion isn't as wide as my last one so it fits in my car seat better without me having to fight with it to buckle my seat belt.
