Free Yourself from Painful Pressure Injuries
Aquila Corporation’s hand built custom wheelchair cushion systems are specifically engineered to treat and prevent pressure injuries (pressure sores). Unlike static cushions, our state of the art, portable and battery operated wheelchair cushions deliver pressure relieving therapy by changing pressure distribution automatically as often as 60 times per hour for the entire time the system is activated.
We have helped thousands of people heal their pressure injuries while being up and active. Our cushions are a better alternative to being confined to bed waiting for a pressure sore to heal. If you or a loved one have pressure injuries, please give us a call and speak to one of our dedicated representatives. This clinically proven technology can help you live the life you deserve; free of pressure injuries.
What Makes Aquila Cushions Different?
The design of the Aquila cushions are born out of excellent engineering and common sense. Our cushions fight the primary cause of pressure injury, constant pressure. By automatically alternating in a similar manner as alternating mattresses, the constant pressure to skin and tissue is interrupted. The goal is, and has always been, to make our cushions the most effective cushion on the market for those at risk of pressure injuries and to help treat existing pressure injuries.

What Causes Pressure Injuries?
The simple fact is that constant compression of skin and tissue is what causes pressure injuries. Static cushions exert constant pressure to the skin and tissue which is why users of static cushion must do manual pressure lifts every 20 minutes to avoid pressure injury.
Movement which brings pressure relief to compressed tissue is the key to fighting pressure injury. ALL Aquila cushions generate movement and pressure relief which is essential for avoiding and treating pressure injuries. Our cushions providing pressure relief is much easier than having to do your own manual pressure lifts. And its completely automatic.
