I'd been using it for about six weeks when I went in for my usual check. Before I said anything she commented that I looked like I was moving more easily getting into the chair. No tailbone soreness by the end of the day anymore. I didn't realise how much I'd been bracing until I stopped doing it.

That cushion looks fine. But it may have stopped working months ago.
A healthy body shifts its weight constantly — small adjustments every few minutes that most people never notice. These micro-movements keep blood flowing to the skin and tissue underneath. They're what stop sitting from causing harm.
As we get older, or when illness or reduced mobility limits how much a person moves, those automatic adjustments slow down or stop altogether. Someone can sit in exactly the same position for hours without realising anything is wrong — because the signal that would make them shift simply isn't getting through.
And the foam cushion you bought to help? Most foam compresses down at the heaviest points first — exactly where the tailbone and sit bones are. The cushion still looks thick, so it seems like it's working. But press your hand into the centre and it goes straight to the base. It bottomed out weeks ago. It's been doing nothing.
Signs the cushion isn't protecting them:
- They fidget and shift constantly but never seem settled
- They wince or struggle when getting up from the chair
- They mention soreness in their lower back or tailbone by the end of the day
- Their skin looks red or irritated where they've been sitting
- The cushion you bought still looks thick — but feels flat when pressed
Real stories. Real results.
The district nurse noticed straight away
Mum has been in the same armchair most of the day for about two years. The nurse came for her usual visit about six weeks after we got this and asked what we'd changed. No redness, no complaints about her back by teatime. Still on it every day.
Bought it for the chair, noticed it in the car
I got it for my armchair but tried it in the car on a long journey. No tailbone soreness at all by the end — that's never happened before. Been using it every day since. First cushion that hasn't gone flat by lunchtime.
No more soreness where I'd been sitting
I'd tried two foam cushions before this. Both looked fine but I was still sore by the afternoon. With this one that just stopped. I press my hand into it now and it still pushes back. That's what sold me on ordering a second.
I actually stay in my chair now
I used to shift and fidget constantly — up and down every twenty minutes, never comfortable. About two weeks in I realised I'd been sitting for over an hour without moving. Small thing, but it was the first sign something had changed.
The cushion does what their body has stopped doing for itself
Most cushions try to make sitting softer. This one does something different — it replaces the body's own pressure-relief system, the one that age or reduced mobility can quietly take away.
The body's automatic protection — and why it stops
In a healthy person, the body shifts weight every few minutes without thinking. These micro-movements keep blood flowing to the skin underneath. When illness or reduced mobility limits how much someone moves, those shifts stop — and the tissue stays compressed for hours with nothing to interrupt it.
Why ordinary foam fails silently
Foam compresses down from the top — which means the heaviest points, exactly where the tailbone and sit bones are, press through first. The cushion still looks thick. But press your hand into the centre and it goes straight to the base. It bottomed out weeks ago, and gave no sign of it.
Gel columns that move sideways, not down
The honeycomb gel grid works differently. When weight is applied, the gel columns buckle sideways rather than compressing flat. That spreads the load across the whole surface instead of concentrating it on one spot. Blood keeps moving. No single point takes the full weight.
A cutout where the tailbone sits
Even a good gel cushion usually still contacts the tailbone — the bone sits lower than everything else, and most cushions reach it. The MediGel has a cutout built directly underneath. There is nothing there for it to press against. That one feature is what most cushions, including most gel cushions, do not have.
