JAY Foot Boxes

JAY® Foot Boxes are a range of wheelchair accessories designed to protect your ankles, feet, and calves while you’re seated. They offer several benefits to improve your overall comfort and well-being:

Reduced Risk of Skin Breakdown:

• JAY® Foot Boxes help prevent skin breakdown and irritation by creating a barrier between your feet and the often-abrasive footplates of wheelchairs. This is especially crucial for individuals with limited mobility or reduced sensation in their lower extremities.

Improved Positioning and Support:

• These foot boxes provide additional support and structure for your feet and ankles, promoting better positioning and alignment. This can help maintain proper leg posture and reduce pressure points that could lead to discomfort or pain.

Enhanced Comfort:

• Most JAY® Foot Boxes are padded with soft, breathable materials to ensure optimal comfort throughout the day. This can make long periods of sitting in your wheelchair more comfortable and reduce fatigue.

Variety of Options:

• JAY® offers a variety of Foot Box styles to suit your specific needs:
  • Single Foot Box: Ideal for users who require support on only one side.
  • Full Foot Box with Divider: Provides support for both feet with a divider for added protection and individual positioning options.
  • Full Foot Box: Offers combined support for both feet without a divider.

Additional Considerations:

• Breathability: Choose a Foot Box with breathable materials to minimize moisture buildup and promote skin health.
• Washability: Opt for a model with removable and washable covers for easy cleaning and hygiene maintenance.
• Compatibility: Ensure the Foot Box you choose is compatible with your wheelchair’s footplate size and mounting system.

Who can benefit from JAY® Foot Boxes?

• Individuals at high risk of skin breakdown due to limited mobility or reduced sensation in their feet and legs.
• Users who experience discomfort or pain from poor foot and ankle positioning while seated.
• Anyone seeking additional support and protection for their lower limbs during wheelchair use.
