Pressure-relieving mattresses are a perfect solution for those at risk of developing pressure ulcers; they can comfortably distribute weight, helping to alleviate pressure in localised areas. These mattresses can also help with blood flow, lessen pain, and help you sleep better. Effectively reducing pressure on areas such as the hips, shoulders and heels, they’re a highly useful and comfortable option for those who are bed-bound.
Our selection of pressure mattresses comes with many beneficial features. We have models featuring water resistance and enhanced breathability for a more comfortable, convenient and hygienic surface on which to sleep. There are also models with additional safety features, such as fire-retardant, combustion-modified high-resilience foam (CMHR) to prevent flammability, and anti-slip bases to keep the mattress secure and improve user safety.
Complete Care Shop’s pressure mattresses provide many convenient options with minimal hassle. We have mattresses compatible with standard bed frames to help you avoid any extra costs; you can seamlessly install our pressure-relieving mattresses on your frame and sleep comfortably.

A pressure mattress is a specialised mattress that helps prevent or relieve pressure ulcers (bedsores). It uses air-filled or foam cells to redistribute body weight and reduce pressure on bony areas. They help to promote healing, enhance circulation and provide additional comfort.
Pressure mattresses are suited to those spending prolonged periods in bed and at risk of pressure ulcers, including those who are bedridden or immobile. They are useful for those recovering from surgery, those with illnesses that require long-term bed care and the elderly.
A pressure mattress uses alternating air-filled or foam cells to relieve pressure. The alternating pressure cycles distribute body weight and reduce pressure on vulnerable areas. A standard mattress will not have these features, meaning that there is an increased risk of developing pressure sores from one when used for prolonged periods.
In our range, we have several pressure-relieving mattresses that can be used on standard bed frames, meaning that you can install one without having to replace your bed frame. However, you should first check that the mattress you are choosing mentions this compatibility in the product description before purchasing.
