What is the Cushion Pampering ®

The Cushion Cuddle® is a device specially designed for the prevention and correction of deformities, cranial posture in infants, such as plagiocephaly.

Cuddle® has a therapeutic purpose.

The products Pampering® have rating of sanitation devices of Class I, are subject to pharmacovigilance and comply with the european standards more stringent quality and safety standards for these products, that’s why a Cuddle® is not a pillow as the commonly aimed to improve the rest, though that might be confused with them by their form of use.

Thanks to its anatomical design and the materials used in its construction, the Cushion Cuddle® manages to evenly distribute the weight of the baby’s head in a larger surface area and prevent it is to focus only on the area of contact (main cause of the deformities, cranial postural), thus relieving the pressure head by up to 400% and allowing for their normal development.

Its three-dimensional structure gives it excellent absorption properties and breathability.

Various clinical studies proving their effectiveness, which is highest during the first 6 months of life, when the skull is especially malleable. After this period it is more complex to correct such deformities as the skull takes on a greater consistency, although it is until 16-18 months (the age at which the fontanelles cranial close) when it is still possible to correct them, and more importantly, avoid the aggravation.

For this reason, prevention and early intervention are seen as the best way to approach this type of ailment, alternating the use of Pampering® with other techniques such as the transportation of the equipment or Tummy Time, or even in combination with bands ortésicas, when the case requires it.

The Cushion Cuddle® relieves and distributes the pressure on the head as it grows. After 6 months of age, the head grows more slowly, which is why the improvement is also slower. However, until the fontanelles are not closed, there is still the possibility of correcting the asymmetry in the skull. To the extent that Pampering you can correct will depend on several factors such as: the proper morphology of the skull, the severity of the asymmetry, the age and the rate of growth of the skull, which may vary among babies.

It is important to get a treatment plan from a professional (doctor, osteopath and/or physical therapist) to perform a follow-up on the evolution of the ailment.

How to use

The baby should be placed in a supine position (face up) and with the head in the central cavity of the cushion. It is intended for use while the baby is lying, either at rest or during the game, and is perfectly suited to devices such as the crib, bassinet, or a blanket/playground, being also suitable for use in the pram or child car seats of Group 0 (Size P).

In any case you should place the baby face down as it is not designed for use in this position.

It is important to always follow the use and care instructions that shipped with the Cushion Cuddle® to achieve maximum effectiveness and extend its useful life by keeping their properties.

Thanks to the range of sizes that we have developed, the Cushion Cuddle® is suitable for use from birth for the baby (still in the case of a premature), and able to adapt to the different stages of growth.

Depending on the age at which it starts to be used the Cushion to Cuddle® and the symptoms that present the skull of the baby, its use may have a vocation preventive or corrective. It is strongly recommended to use the Cushion Cuddle® in the first six months of life because the head is growing rapidly and the skull is particularly malleable during this period, which allows to obtain very favorable results.

Each of the sizes has a period of use which is assigned according to the head circumference of the baby. We recommend to pass to the size immediately above before reaching the limit value of the size in use.

The Cushion Cuddle® can be effective until the fontanelles cranial close (16-18 months), although after this period, you can continue to use the cushion as a complement to the rest.

No, the cushion is designed for the baby to rest on him in a supine position (face up) and its effectiveness depends on it. Experts recommend that babies should rest in the supine position and that has been the premise followed in the clinical trials. Even so, the Cushion Cuddle® offers freedom of movement to the baby so that you can rotate the head to both sides, and its effectiveness is demonstrated when the head rests correctly on the cushion and with a back attached to the mattress.

The Cushion Cuddle® is a health care product, so that its use should be individual, that is to say, a cushion for each baby. After continued use their shape can be altered, compromising their effectiveness, for this reason it is not recommended to use a cushion that has been previously used by another baby.

How to select the right size and why it is important

The value that we use to choose the size is the head circumference, and that in combination with the age of the baby, allows you to choose the appropriate size that able to get the effect of pressure relief sought and thus provide a proper break from the cervical area.

Size S. If your baby is less than 4 months and a head circumference of 41 cm, then the cervical area may not be developed enough to use a one-size-M. you Must use a S.

You can opt for the M size. If your baby is over 4 months and a head circumference of 41 cm, then the cervical area is more developed and you may opt for a M, although it will also be within the range of use of the size S.

No. It is essential to use the proper size in each time to achieve the expected results. Remember that the size S can be used until the baby reaches 46 cm head circumference, which usually happens between 8 and 10 months of age.

The range of use in the size S and P is the same, although the design of the latter is specific to be used in devices of the Group 0, strollers and hammocks where the size S is too wide.

Size P is not suitable for crib, since a baby is out of the pad with ease.

The cushion Cuddle Size P can be used in devices of the group 0 (e.g. Maxi-Cosi) when these are used for walking or while the baby rests, but it is not approved to be used with the car running for safety reasons.
