What is considered orthopedic foam?
A – Visco-cell (memory) foam and polyurethane foam that is convoluted (egg crated) are considered orthopedic products. Visco-cell foam has special properties that make it sensitive to heat and pressure. When you lie on it, it conforms to the shape of your body, eliminating pressure points. Convoluted or egg-crate foam acts like a pillow-top making a firm mattress softer to lie on. Many people with Fibromialgia and Scoliosis find that one of these products can give them much sought-after relief when trying to sleep.
