About The Relax 6C Silicone Cushion Liner

Th Relax 6C is designed to help provide pain relief for individuals experiencing phantom limb pain, phantom limb sensations, and idiopathic residual limb pain. The effect is achieved through the liner’s metallurgical knitted fabric (Umbrellan), which is incorporated into both the cover and liner matrix. This specialised fabric helps screen against electromagnetic influences, which may contribute to the reduction of pain and discomfort in the residual limb. 4 Electromagnetic shielding.

As evidenced in Fisher K, Oliver S, Sedki I, Hanspal R. The effect of electromagnetic shielding on phantom limb pain: A placebo-controlled double-blind crossover trial. Prosthetics and Orthotics International. 2015.
