MediGel Cushion
MediGel is a gel seat cushion with a built-in tailbone cutout, designed to take pressure off the tailbone, hips, and lower back during long periods of sitting.

electric_boltWhat Should I Expect the First Week?
Most people can feel the cutout and gel right away. Give it a week or two in the seats you use most to get a fair sense of how it works for you, since everyone's body and seating are different.
Gel Cushion Comfort, Built Around Your Tailbone
Plenty of seat cushions are just a slab of foam with a nice cover. MediGel takes a different route. A honeycomb gel layer shifts under your weight to help spread it across the seat, while a cutout at the back keeps your tailbone from pressing against the surface. It's sized at 16″ × 13″ × 2″, so it drops into an office chair, car seat, recliner, or wheelchair without any fuss. Simple design, no gimmicks, made for anyone who is tired of squirming in their seat.
Your Seat Just Got an Upgrade
Comfort Where You Sit Most
Sit Longer, Squirm Less
Soft Isn't the Same as Supportive
Standard pads go flat, trap heat, and leave you shifting around by mid-afternoon. MediGel's open honeycomb gel is designed to hold its shape and let air flow through, while the tailbone cutout gives you breathing room right where you need it. Sit down, sink in, and let your cushion finally keep up with your day.
Long Hours Shouldn't Mean Aching Hours
When your weight sits on the same spot for too long, discomfort builds, and a flat seat only softens it. MediGel's tailbone cutout and honeycomb gel are designed to ease that pressure, so you can stay seated and comfortable through the long stretches.
What Our Customers Are Saying
Real feedback from people who sit through long days.
My father kept finding reasons to leave early, from family dinners to my son's games. When I finally asked, he admitted sitting made his tailbone and lower back ache. I got him a MediGel for his recliner and one for the car. Now he stays for the whole game. If someone you love keeps bowing out, it's worth asking why.
I spent months being careful about her comfort, and I never suspected the foam cushion under her had gone completely flat. Once I switched to MediGel, with its tailbone cutout and gel that springs back when I press it, I could see the difference in how she sat. If someone you love spends long hours in a chair, don't wait as long as I did to check the cushion.
My husband has used a wheelchair for a few years, and we'd gone through more cushions than I can count. MediGel is the first one that still feels the same after months of daily use. A friend in my caregiver group mentioned it, and I'm passing it along in case it helps someone else.
Think of it as a seat cushion built around two ideas: a gel layer shaped like a honeycomb, and an opening at the back where your tailbone rests. Together they're meant to keep your weight from piling up in one place.
That's the situation MediGel was designed around. The cutout leaves a gap where your tailbone rests, so it isn't pushed against the seat, and the gel under the rest of you flexes to share the load. Many people find longer stretches in a chair more comfortable. It isn't a medical treatment, so if the pain is severe or doesn't go away, see your doctor.
It can help take some of the strain off. The honeycomb gel moves with you, so your weight is spread over the whole cushion instead of landing on a couple of hard spots. Results vary, and pairing it with regular breaks to stand and stretch is a good habit.
A basic foam pad is one solid slab, and slabs wear down. MediGel has an open gel structure that's designed to spring back instead of packing down. No cushion lasts forever, but the design is aimed at keeping its shape through everyday use.
It fits in a car seat, so a lot of people keep one in the car. With a tailbone cutout and a gel layer under you, it's meant to make long drives easier on your lower back and hips. Because it lifts you slightly, make sure you can still reach the pedals and see the road comfortably.
It works in both, and the tailbone cutout and gel layer are designed to make long hours of sitting more comfortable. It isn't a medical device, though, so for anyone with skin concerns or limited mobility, follow the advice of their doctor or nurse on positioning and skin care.
You have 90 days to test it at no risk. If it isn't right, send it back for a refund.
Yes. MediGel works well on top of most flat seats, including padded ones, and you can put a thin cover or blanket over it if you like. If the seat underneath is very soft or sloped, the cushion may sit unevenly, so a firm, flat surface gives the best results. Because it adds about 2 inches of height, check that your feet still rest comfortably and that you can still reach your desk, table, or pedals.
