SymmetriSleep® plays a vital role in a comprehensive 24-hour posture & activity management program

People with limited mobility are at risk of body shape changes caused by gravity, muscle tone, weakness, and inactivity. These distortions can lead to pain, contractures, pressure injuries, and reduced independence.

While often overlooked, lying is a crucial posture that can account for up to a third of the 24-hour period.

SymmetriSleep® is transforming the lives of people with movement challenges by supporting proper alignment during sleep and lying, ultimately preventing or improving body shape distortions.

Trusted by therapists, SymmetriSleep® plays a vital role in a comprehensive 24-hour postural care program, promoting well-being and long-term health​.

The Airmantle is an advanced pressure redistribution layer designed to increase the contact area between the user and the support surface. It works in combination with the bracket pads and cushions, which also expand the area of contact by providing broader support zones around key parts of the body.​

By spreading body weight across a wider surface, the system reduces pressure on vulnerable areas, helping to lower the risk of pressure injuries and enhance user comfort.​

The Airmantle is available in a range of sizes and is compatible with various mattress types, including alternating air mattresses and safety beds.​

What people say...

What people say...

The SymmetriSleep system was essential in supporting the early postural management of our complex young patient. Prior to being in place, the patient had poor trunk and hip alignment and was being managed by multiple cushions which didn't provide adequate positioning to meet his needs. Once set up, his alignment improved significantly and his sleep wake cycle also improved as a consequence as he was more comfortable and supported. The Helping Hand team was responsive and informative when demonstrating and upskilling the team to use the system and providing advice on any additional accessories required. All equipment meets hospital inflection control regulations which makes it an essential piece of equipment to support patients early on in the acute setting.
