Cluneal Seat with memory foam

Cluneal neuralgia is a perineal condition with recent anatomical and pathological knowledge. This neuralgia is an inflammation of the cluneal nerve that is located in the lower part of the buttock and runs under the ischium (towards the lateral-anal region). Due to its proximity to the pudendal nerve, cluneal neuralgia and pudendal neuralgia are often mistaken. Both pudendal and cluneal neuralgia can be caused by trauma or pressure, pinching the nerve until inflammation.

A surgery in the lumbar to femur area can also damage the nerve. People suffering from cluneal neuralgia report sensations of electric shocks, intense burning, stabbing pain, or tingling, from the buttocks to mid-thigh.

Our seating cushion for cluneal nerve entrapement (CNE) acts in several ways:

• Thick cushion: Our cushion for cluneal nerve is thicker at the back than at the front. This aims to place the buttocks higher than the knees (dynamic position) to open the pelvic and reduce compression of the abdomen forward, and thus the compression of the cluneal nerve.
• Cluneal nerve cushion with bowl-shaped cut-out: Talking with people suffering from clunealgia, we found that sitting on the toilet bowl helps relieve compression of the cluneal nerve and the pain. We have created a cushion that replicates the shape of the toilet bowl and can be used anywhere (home, car, office, public transportation...)
• High Viscosity Fluid Technology: In addition to reducing pressure when sitting, the fluid pouches in our cushion absorb shocks and vibrations that can intensify pain while driving.

Our cluneal neuralgia cushion is available in two versions:

• With High-Viscosity fluid
• With memory foam

Both versions feature the same offloading design that runs from the sacrum to the perineum to relieve pressure on the base of the body and the cluneal nerve.

In the first version of our pudendal cushion, the combination of High-Viscosity fluid and High-Resilience foam offers excellent shock and micro-vibration absorption—particularly useful for driving. The fluid shifts with your body weight and movements to support motion and reduce pressure on the four fluid pockets.

In the new version of our cluneal cushion, the High-Viscosity fluid pockets are replaced by a full-surface layer of memory foam. This memory foam helps reduce compression across all contact points (buttocks and thighs), making it ideal for people with muscle sensitivity or tension. We recommend the memory foam version if your neuralgia is triggered or worsened by myofascial syndrome or piriformis syndrome, for example.
