University of St Mark & St John Study
(Published at PUBMED)
Research from the University of St Mark and St John, published on PUBMED, shows that using the Squirrel Vestim's® active mattress for 8 weeks significantly improved skin health and function. Measurements taken 2-3 hours after getting out of bed indicated substantial long-term physiological benefits, supporting Squirrel Medical's findings that their products help prevent and treat pressure ulcers.
