Mattress Overlays | Comfort & Pressure Relief

Foam overlays are a practical solution to reduce the risk of pressure sores by redistributing weight evenly across the surface. Their soft yet supportive design provides enhanced comfort, making them ideal for individuals experiencing hip and joint pain or those on prolonged bed rest.

These overlays are an affordable alternative to replacing an entire mattress and can be used alongside conventional mattresses. At Highgate Healthcare, we offer a diverse range of foam overlays crafted from materials like natural latex, silicone fibre, and convoluted foam, catering to various needs and preferences.

Designed to conform to the body’s natural contours, foam overlays deliver orthopaedic support while relieving pressure on the skin and muscles. They also promote airflow around the mattress, helping regulate body temperature for a cooler, more comfortable sleep.
