100% Australian Natural Medical Sheepskin for Pressure Care and Comfort

Our Home Health Medical Sheepskin offers comfort and support for those with limited mobility or long-term rest needs.
Made in Australia, this double-length 210cm x 65cm overlay is made from two sheepskin hides sewn together for full-body coverage. See photo below of product against us for size idea.


It’s ideal for beds, recliners, and wheelchairs in both home and care settings.

Crafted from genuine Australian sheepskin, each rug is hand-selected for its high density and plush wool.
The springy fibres help cushion the body, evenly spread weight, and provide consistent pressure care. This helps prevent skin damage and reduces the likelihood of developing pressure ulcer and bed sores.
It also reduces friction and shear—key contributors to skin breakdown and discomfort.

Clinical research confirms that medical sheepskin can significantly reduce pressure ulcer risk in high-risk patients.

Used in hospitals, aged care, and homes, it’s a trusted choice for quality pressure care.


Promotes Better Rest and Natural Recovery

Aside from the pressure relief properties, this medical sheepskin helps supports deep sleep and natural healing.
Wool naturally regulates body temperature, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.
Its breathable wool fibres draws away moisture and promotes airflow, helping to keep your skin feeling dry.
This insulation creates a calming sleep surface—ideal for recovery after surgery or managing chronic conditions. Often our customers comment on how well they have finally been able to sleep with our sheepskin.

 


Versatile, Trusted, and Built for Comfort

Use this sheepskin on beds, recliners, or any surface needing added softness and support.
It offers long-term comfort and is ideal for elderly individuals, recovering patients, or anyone needing daily pressure care.


Easy to Maintain and Long-Lasting

Tanned using a safe, non-toxic process, our sheepskin rugs are made to last.
They’re machine washable on a cold wool cycle with Woolskin-approved detergent (available here).
Regular brushing helps keep the wool fluffy, hygienic, and in top condition for years of ongoing use.
Naturally hypoallergenic and odour-resistant, it’s gentle on sensitive skin and built for consistent, reliable comfort.

Luxurious & breathable

I was worried this would be too hot for summer, but it’s incredibly comfortable and not hot at all. It feels luxurious to sleep on and I’ve noticed more restful nights. Excellent customer service and very fast delivery!

Sitting on a cloud

These sheepskins are luxury personified. They were bought for our 2 new recliners and I got them to fit the whole chair. My only gripe is that there is no way to 'fix' them in place. We have to fix them in place each time we sit down. I did buy my husband the shorter one for his visits to the transfusion centre every fortnight and he loves it.

My mother in law loved the gift

My 81y.o. mother in law loved the gift said they were very luxurious and is sure it will help with her bedsores as well as keeping her comfy and warm(being off grid in tassie means that's essential) I ordered 2 double length one for her recliner, and the other for her bed. The one on the bed(shes short) was long enough to fold up and tucked her feet in to keep warm. She liked the free gift (they will be too large being mens 6-12 according to invoice, shes a size 4 but she can still pop them on to keep warm whilst sitting)but her wee dog ran away with one sock before she could try them- shes still searching the house for it!😄. I recommend the medical grade double length sheepskins rugs and believe they will assist my mother in law in overcoming current bedsores and helping prevent others

It's the most beautiful, soft sheepskin

It's the most beautiful, soft sheepskin.
You can feel the quality. I care for my mum who is 92 and spends a lot of time in bed.
It's a perfect fit for her to lay in her bed. So soft and comfortable for delicate skin...

Very happy with the extra length. It allows for the sheepskin to go right underneath her heels, to avoid pressure sores...

Quality product.
Glad I made the purchase

I recently bought the above sheepskin rug and it is beyond my expectations. It completely fits my side of the bed and is so warm and comfortable or cool on hot days. I would highly recommend the rug especially if, like me, you experience back pain.

Double sheepskin

I originally bought a single sheepskin to sleep on so my recent scar wasn’t straight onto the mattress- it was brilliant in relieving the pressure and so I’ve now treated myself to the double which I am sure will be even better

It’s perfect!

Thank you so much. Have purchased for my elderly father to use in his recliner. Just loves it. May need to add some elastic straps to keep in place. Might be a good option for you to consider for this product.
Thanks again

Hi, Janine! We’re so happy to hear the rug is a great fit and keeping your father comfortable. Thanks for the thoughtful idea about straps. It’s something we will look into. We truly appreciate your support.

Extremely happy customer

I bought this Sheepskin rug for my elderly father. He feels the cold very badly and doesn’t sleep well as he’s plagued with back problems and lots of aches and pains. He was so excited to receive this and is happy to report that he’s sleeping better than he has in years. So based on his smile I’m happy to recommend this product.

It wasn't as fluffy as I fought

Thanks for your review Richard, please note our Medical sheepskins are purposely clipped short and we carefully select sheepskin hides that have wool with high density for pressure relieving purposes as it's main function.
