GRAVITY BECOMES AN
ADJUNCT MODALITY FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY
APPLICATIONS.
For physical therapy the bC is used as a
positioner for applications such as ice, stim, ultrasound, soft
tissue manipulation, joint mobilization, and stretches.
For whiplash: Face down on the bC, the
patient is well supported with the neck flexed, ideal for working
with whiplash patients.
Because the Face Support of the bC is freely attached, the
P.T. has the ability to place the patient’s neck in lateral flexion.
With the use of a Small Wedge Adjuster, placed under the Face
Support Base, various angles of flexion and extension of the neck
are made possible.
For back pain: Face down on the bC, the
patient’s lumbar spine is mildly decompressed. With the addition of
Large Wedges beneath the bC (these add 2” of elevation for the ribs
and pelvis, thereby further decompressing the lumbar spine).
Face up on the bC, the patient’s hip and lumbar
spine are relieved of supporting pressure..
Side lying, the bC supports the patient with
significantly reduced pressure to the shoulder that is otherwise
compressed in the side posture. 
The bC can also serve to provide seated support.
The bodyCushion is ideal for a variety of
applications in Physical Therapy.
