adds a customizable bottom cavity with five interchangeable inserts, allowing
users or caregivers to adjust support, immersion, and pressure relief based on
individual needs.

hygiene and durability—ideal for clinical, home care, or daily personal use.

reduce heat buildup and wick away moisture, which is essential for maintaining
skin health during extended use.
