Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injury

A spinal cord injury involves damage to any part of the spinal cord. The spinal cord sends and receives signals between the brain and the rest of the body. A spinal cord injury often causes permanent changes in strength, feeling and other body functions below the site of the injury.

 

The importance of keeping the anogenital & buttock area clean from uric acid and fecal bacteria cannot be overstated. It is also crucial that the person relieves  pressure on the anogenital region and buttocks by soaking in a basin with flowing water instead of compressing their genitals on another flat, hard surface, like in a bathtub. The person’s genitals can soak freely in the SoSoak basin which will increase blood flow to the area. 

 

SoSoak is the sturdiest shower soaking chair on the market, and the only one with a soaking basin molded into the seat. It was designed to facilitate smooth transfers, and the cupped design cradles the person, discouraging falls.

 

SoSoak allows the person to soak quickly, safely and enjoyably multiple times a day.

 

Happy Soaking!
