Comfort Seat & Kneeling Pad
Providing multiple choice of comfortable positions along with movement, maintaining the ability to roll the hips and stay upright. The well thought out Comfort Seat is a perfect companion for home birth or for use within maternity rooms and Birth Centres.
The added layer of comfort is the Kneeling pad. Using new technology it firms up when weight is applied to ensure your knees are off the floor and well supported. An excellent addition to the birth environment that enables a comfortable kneeling position over the bed, sofa, chair or the Comfort Seat.
The MiA ViA Comfort Seat is designed to give the softness and movement of a birth ball combined with the stability of a stool, to support the most natural and physiologically effective positioning throughout pregnancy and beyond. It provides an area cut out on the top layer to ensure the perineum is free from pressure. It encourages women to remain upright whilst giving them the opportunity to rest and change position as they see fit, whilst encouraging optimal foetal positioning.
The MiA ViA Comfort Seat is designed to allow moulded organic compound curves to ergonomically and comfortably support the body. The nature of the curves help to relieve pressure on the perineum while seated in a squatting position, providing stability for Mum.
The MiA ViA Comfort Seat and kneeling pad is fully portable & waterproof. It can be used at home or in hospital.
In addition to the great benefits provided for mum, the Comfort Seat is also a comfortable and convenient seating item for the attending midwife or doula reducing skeletal and muscular stress during birth - either "on land" or with either inflatable or fixed birth pools. These benefits are further enhanced by the kneeling pad which has been praised by midwives for not only providing an extremely comfortable kneeling platform but also providing sufficient support when attending birth (particularly with birth pools) to assist in maintaining a straighter posture thereby reducing stress on the spine and back muscles.
