Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or seeking comfort during prolonged sitting, our selection of coccyx cushions offers effective solutions to meet your needs.

What is a Coccyx Cushion?

A Coccyx Cushion, also known as a tailbone cushion or orthopedic seat cushion, is a specially designed cushion that helps alleviate pressure on the tailbone (coccyx) while sitting. It typically features a cut-out or contour at the back to relieve pressure on the coccyx and promote proper alignment of the spine. Coccyx cushions come in various shapes, sizes, and materials to accommodate different preferences and needs.

How to sit on a coccyx cushion?

Sitting on a coccyx cushion is simple and straightforward. Follow these steps for optimal comfort and support:

  1. Position the cushion: Place the coccyx cushion on the seat of your chair or wheelchair with the cut-out or contour at the back. Make sure the cushion is centered and aligned with your body.
  2. Sit down gently: Lower yourself onto the coccyx cushion in a controlled manner, keeping your weight evenly distributed. Aim to sit towards the back of the cushion, allowing the cut-out or contour to support your tailbone while relieving pressure on the surrounding area.
  3. Adjust as needed: Once seated, adjust your position as needed to ensure proper alignment and comfort. You may need to shift your weight slightly or experiment with different sitting positions to find the most comfortable posture.

How to use a coccyx cushion

Using a coccyx cushion effectively can help alleviate tailbone pain and discomfort while promoting proper posture and spinal alignment. Here are some general guidelines for using a coccyx cushion:

  • Select the right cushion: Choose a coccyx cushion that is appropriate for your needs, taking into account factors such as size, shape, material, and level of support. Consider consulting with a healthcare professional or therapist for personalized recommendations.
  • Position the cushion correctly: Place the coccyx cushion on the seat of your chair or wheelchair with the cut-out or contour at the back, aligning it with your body's natural contours.
  • Sit back comfortably: Lower yourself onto the coccyx cushion in a gentle and controlled manner, allowing the cut-out or contour to support your tailbone while relieving pressure on the surrounding area.
  • Adjust as needed: Once seated, adjust your position as needed to achieve optimal comfort and support. You may need to shift your weight slightly or experiment with different sitting positions to find what works best for you.
