100% Australian Natural Sheepskin – Home Health Medical Rug

Our Home Health Medical Sheepskin Rug is designed to relieve pressure points and support comfort for daily use and longer periods of sitting or resting. The generous 100–105cm length provides coverage for the shoulder and hip areas. We carefully select Australian Merino sheepskins with extra-dense wool to deliver pressure relief and cushioned support for those concerned about pressure sore / bedsore (pressure ulcer) prevention.

Made from genuine Australian natural sheepskin, the thick 35mm wool pile gently cradles the body and spreads pressure more evenly. Wool’s natural properties also help with temperature regulation—warm in winter and cool in summer—while the breathable fibres promote airflow to reduce moisture build-up and keep the skin environment comfortable. The rug is hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin.

Use it on beds, armchairs, recliners or wheelchairs—anywhere you want extra comfort and support at home.

Easy care

To help your rug last, hand wash is preferred in cold water with an approved wool wash. Machine wash only if necessary—use a cold wool cycle and gentle wool detergent. Brush the wool after drying to keep it soft and lofty. For step-by-step advice, read our guide: How to Wash a Sheepskin Rug – Tips & Care Instructions

Lost sheepskin has not arrived

I still have not received my parcel. CCCTV has bern checked as requested by sendle . They said it was delivered in the afternoon but that is not true. Only one very small item was delivered about that time. The manager also checked late at night when someone from Sendle signed for it. No delivery . Could you please arrange for another sheepskin or a refund. I am actually in a lot of pain and need it. Sendle requested a copy of CCTV but management does not really want to do that. I can keep asking but they have been very helpful and they are busy.

Hi Rhonda,
Thanks for your review. I just spoke to you over the phone and we are investigating this with our courier company as it was shown as delivered according to the tracking. As mentioned on the phone to you, we will be in touch shortly once we hear back from our courier company to get this resolved for you.
Thanks for your patience.

Very happy

I bought the medical sheepskin rug for my husband's recliner. We'd been looking for a sheepskin rug for a while, but couldn't find a suitable one until I came across the Yellow earth website. I ordered it online and we are very happy with our purchase. It's a great size and the wool is beautifully luxurious and just the right length.
I would recommend this rug to anyone looking for a quality product.

Excellent product

This is an excellent product. It is very thick, luxurious and so comfortable. I love the generous size, making it very practical for prolonged bed rest. Before purchasing this we used a bassinet size sheepskin purchased 48 years ago! Time to upgrade. My husband had major surgery and sitting can be uncomfortable, but he finds sitting on this sheepskin really helps. I like that the ivory colour goes with any decor and it is large enough to drape across furniture, like a throw. Grandkids like to lay on it when they come to visit too. It is so versatile. Ordering was easy and delivery was prompt. Highly recommend.

The Best!

My husband is recovering at home and is sitting most of the time. Until the sheepskin arrived he was experiencing great discomfort.
The sheepskin rug has made a huge difference and he is now much more comfortable during this stressful time.

First impressions of the 'just arrived' sheepskin rug.

The sheepskin rug has just arrived (11.30am) after it was ordered yesterday morning - excellent service! The packaging nicely presents the rug in its convenient'carry case' with see-through panels - very professional. Obviously, I have yet to try it out, but because my wife purchased one a couple of weeks ago and swears by it (she doesn't normally swear!) and strongly suggested I should have one too - hence this purchase. It is now 'breathing' ('airing') on our bed - it is larger than I had anticipated and I'm looking forward to christening it this evening.

Awesome product. It works.

Has relieved my aches and pain whilst resting in bed, nothing else suggested for this and so expensive has worked. This is a miracle to me. Thankyou so much. Prompt postage also.

I bought 3 rugs and they are stunning.

I bought 3 rugs and they are absolutely beautiful, especially the medical rug which sleeps on my bed and goes to work at night keeping me cool when it is hot and warm when it is cold. I found it hard to believe these claims but it does actually work. I love snuggling up to it. This rug has improved my sleeping hours significantly.
My other two rugs are scattered on armchairs and lounge chairs in other parts of the house creating a more welcoming feel and they look just great. I am thoroughly impressed.

With thanks for a beautiful product to keep my 90 y.o mother in comfort in her bed.
Its certainly fitting as coming from a merino sheep farm and knitting countless woollen jumpers that she lays down on her past.

To Yellow Earth team
The sheepskins and scuffs are of a quality I have not found anywhere else. The softness of the fleece is so so comfortable and easy to care for.
I would recommend it to anyone, especially those with an injury or arthritis.
Thank you so much.
