Thalway Wedge Seat Cushion Sciatica Pillow for Coccyx Hip and Lower Back Pain Medium Soft

This seat is everything my back ever dreamed of and more. I ordered yesterday late morning and received it late afternoon at my house. I mean COME ON- this is why America is great. I've been dealing with sciatica for 5 + years and I'm crying tears of joy because I've finally found this ( sadly only now) I have a desk job which does no favors for my lower back and a 1 hr commute that even further wrecks it. I've only used this seat for one day and the difference is ridiculous. The drive: so much more comfortable. Work: I can get in and out of my chair without doing my weird slow standing move that looks and feels terrible. Bless you Thalway. Bless you all.

I got this for my husband because we were taking a long 19 hours trip in the car and his sciatic nerve was killing him and I thought this would provide him some relief. It provided him with a little relief but in the end he just needed to be lying down for the trip. So, I used it simply for comfort. When I put this behind my back wow what a difference, I will be using this wedge all the time now when I drive. It is so comfortable and even made me sit up straight.

First off, this is not memory foam. This is a 2" thick (at the back) to about 3/4" thick (at the front) foam pad. And it works great. I sit in an office all day and my chair cuts off the circulation of my legs mid-thigh. This resolved the problem.

1. Sit upright and have your back and shoulder blades touching the back of your chair.2. Make sure your feet comfortably touch the ground. If not, try using a foot rest.3. Keep some space between the front of your chair and the back of your calves.4. Try to have your hips slightly higher than your knees.5. Your arms should be flat, and elbows level, with the desk or table you are using.6. Take regular breaks if you can. Avoid sitting at your desk or computer for more than 40 minutes at a time.7. When taking a break, walk around or stretch a little.I returned this. To many directions for use for a cushion.

I'm 125 lbs and this thing flattens as soon as I sit on it. It said med-soft and it's soft but it's definitely not the right foam to sit on as it should give without flattening. I'm disappointed since I really need the cushion and returning takes time I do not have. The 2 stars I gave are because the outside is a very durable material that has a zipper to remove and wash it. The search continues

I’ve had an issue with abscesses on my sit bone as well as soreness where my hamstring attaches to my seat. These are sports related issues. I envisioned the cushion as distributing my weight more evenly when I'm seated, relieving pressure on the problem areas. It's working well and also facilitates sitting with a healthy posture, comfortably. I appreciate the followup emails from Thalway!

I swear it took less than three seconds for me to figure out that this was exactly what I needed! Using it on a padded ergonomic office chair that just didn't have enough padding and was too thick in the front of the seat cushion for my legs to be comfortable. I unwrapped the Thalway Wedge and put it on the seat and tried it out. Immediately! Immediately I had relief and comfort!! The cushioning is just right for me. The slope of the wedge is just right for me. And the cut-out for the tailbone, well... never having tried one of those before, I had no idea how comfortable that was. So... I am really happy about this!!

I suppose if you sit correctly in your chair then this is perfect for hours on end....however, sitting like a normal person is not comfortable for me. I've got to sit with my legs crossed under me and hunched over to be truely comfy. But with the chair I have, my backside starts to hurt from an old accident. Bought this hoping it'd help. It did for the first day and a half I used it. Then it seemed to be too flat to be of much use if I didn't shove an old flat decorative pillow under it. Once I've done that, it becomes pretty comfy for hours on end at my computer.
