Description of the product and how to use it
LASAL Flotation Cushions are developed specifically for disabled children and adults, but can also be
used by people who just want extra support in the water. The cushions can be used for e.g. positioning/
relaxation in the pool, during training sessions or various kinds of water therapy and play.
LASAL Flotation Cushions are only for use in chlorinated water.
The cushions are available in different models and sizes for both children and adults. The various models
can be used separately or combined to match the needs of each individual user.
Which and how many flotation cushions to use should be judged on the activities to be carried out, the
functionality of the user as well as the use of other swim aids.
It is for the assistant staff to evaluate what products are needed based on the knowledge of the user.
IMPORTANT:
Some models are not designed to be fastened around the body and
therefore it is essential that either user or helper holds on to the cushion in order to
avoid getting the head under water.
The cushions have a great flotation ability and feels pleasant to the skin due to the very special
composition of materials providing the user with a safe and comfortable experience in the water. For
more information please read our product guide on LASAL Flotation Cushions.
The user may advantageously be equipped with the flotation cushions before entering the water e.g. by
hoist.
