Hey everybody it's Doctor Jo, and it's
product review time again. The folks at
economic innovation sent me their
orthopedic donut cushion, so let's get started.
So the donut cushion comes in a really nice gift box.
A lot of times cushions just come in
regular packaging, so if you want to give
it away for someone as a gift, or if you
want to store it somewhere,
it's a nice sturdy box. And once you open
it up, you see you have the cushion here
and it's a donut cushion. It's got a hole
in between so it's a little different
than just your normal everyday cushions
that you sit in for work or something
like that.
What's really cool about the donut
cushion is if you have certain things
like hemorrhoids or coccyx issues, any
kind of pressure sores on your bottom,
this big opening really helps take the
pressure off of it. You can see here that
it has some contours so when you're
sitting on that coccyx area,
it takes all that pressure off of it and
then it helps you sit in a more neutral
position. So even people, women who are
pregnant, that have a lot of pressure
going one way or the other, this works
really really nicely for them. As you can
see here, it's really soft on the the top, the
outer piece, and what super nice is the
zipper that opens up is really
frustration-free because it opens all the
way around. So if you want to take it out
to wash it, you don't have to push and
pull and take it out and squish it back
in, it opens all the way up which is
super nice and super easy to then
throw it in the washing machine, and wash it.
What's also cool on the back, you can see
here, these little silicone dots these
are a little more pronounced than some
of the cushions I've seen which is
really nice, when you put in the chair it's
not going to slide away, so you get in a
spot that you need it, and it stays in
that one spot, so that's really nice.
It's also got just the right amount of
firmness, but it's not super soft either,
so it's a nice in the middle where you're
going to get a little bit of give to
make it comfortable, but it's not going
to bottom out at the bottom either, it's
still going to support you as you sit. So
especially if you have those butt bones
as ischial tuberosities, those are sore,
it does a really good job of taking some
pressure off of it, but not making it
bottomed out where you hit those on the
ground or on on the chair which
sometimes is really painful, especially
if you don't have a lot of cushion
underneath. But any kind of things that
you know pressure sores, or you know
tunneling, if you have issues like that,
where you know something that's a
little bit more extreme than just pain
in general, these donut ones that have
that big opening are very helpful, but
they're even helpful for just sciatic
pain or just pain in general because
like I said, when you sit on it helps
get you in a more neutral position, so
that's really nice. I like that and it's
super comfy, so let me show you what it
looks like when you sit on it.
The nice thing about this cushion is
it's got the opening on both sides so
you can put it either way, and they spent
a long time making the dimensions just
right so you can sit almost virtually in
any chair, so it's not super big but it's
not super small, it is just right, and so
once you get on it that opening in the
back you want it to be right in the
middle on that coccyx and that takes
off that pressure back there, and then in
the front it takes some pressure
underneath as well, so if you have
something like sciatic pain or the nerve
running down your legs, circulation
running down your legs, a lot of times if
you're sitting on a hard chair for a
long time,
it cuts off the pressure there and then
you get numbness and tingling in your
feet. When you're sitting on the cushion
in your chair, usually once you put a
cushion in, it changes the height so make
sure your feet are flat on the floor and
if not make sure you put something
underneath because you want your knees
and your hips to be about a 90 degree
angle, and when you sit on the cushion
it's really nice because it puts me up
in an upright position. It puts those
hips in a neutral position, so even if
you have something like a herniated disc,
again that sciatic pain,
stenosis, if you're in that neutral
position it's more comfortable. So if i try
and slouch, it kind of feels funny on
that cushion, so it encourages me to sit
in that upright position, so it's really
nice, it's really comfortable, and again
those openings underneath take that
pressure off the bottom off the coccyx
area, if there's any pressure sores or
ulcers then it allows that circulation
in there to help the healing process.
That's really nice. If you have any questions,
