Sheep's Wool regulates the body temperature; it has a body heat of its own and keeps your muscles warm all night long; as a result, your body is not stiff in the morning.
Sheep's Wool is highly moisture-absorbent. It absorbs 30-40% of its weight in moisture and releases it into the air. If synthetics surround you, the body will become damp and the skin vulnerable. Lying in humidity creates the perfect environment for skin to break down and for bacteria to thrive.
Sheep's Wool is anti-microbial and anti-bacterial. Our comfort pads offer pressure redistribution, offloading, and bed sore prevention. If an area of the body is reddened, you usually have a window of 24-36 hours before skin breakdown. If you place wool underneath the body, usually the coccyx, within 12 hours, you will see a 180 turn round to the area.
Sheep's Wool comfort pads are necessary for anyone who spends significant time sitting or sleeping, posts surgery, or is immobile.
Our comfort pads are made of the highest quality Merino sheep’s wool-pile fabric. We offer three health densities, including one that is ideal for incontinence.
Please take note of the following instructions for washing and drying our Sheep Wool fabric:
- It is machine washable up to 70 degrees Celsius.
- When drying, only dry it up to 85%, as wool loves moisture. Ideally, hang it to dry for the best results, as sheep wool deserves the respect of natural drying and dries quickly. We meet Canadian Infection Control Standards.
- If the fabric has been over-dried, it may develop a mouton look. In this case, you can brush it with a wire brush to restore its original cloud-like appearance. However, if the fabric has been significantly over-dried, it may become knobby and take longer to brush out, which is not recommended.
HEALTH DENSITIES:
- White 850 GRAM - 1" wool pile; suitable for everyday use and/or patients without any skin breakdown
- White 950 GRAM - 1/2" wool-pile interwoven with 1" wool-pile (exclusive to Soul Comfort); suitable for everyday use, patients who have had skin breakdown, and/or palliative care
- Green XD1750 - 1/2" wool-pile interwoven with 1" wool-pile (exclusive to Soul Comfort); ideal for incontinence solutions, suitable for everyday use, patients who have had skin breakdown, and/or palliative care
We also offer custom-cut pads for any situation.

Very thick and is healing the bed sores on my heels

Nothing keeps my feet, and especially my toes from feeling cold, even numb at times. I lined my old, worn sealskin slippers with a sheepswool lining. This keeps my cold toes from feeling numb. Even rubbing doesnt warm them. I have even worn them to bed, which is ridiculous, given the size of the slipper. I will buy more linings, to wear with boots, and even inside my old thick wool socks that have got holes in them. I think,that will work.
Excellent quality and helps prevent pressure injury.
My Brenna loves her kennel in both the house for bedtime and in the car for traveling.
