Total comfort

Towards the end of last year, after a lengthy 7-week stint in hospital recovering from sepsis, I purchased the Medical Sheepskin Underlay for my bed and the Pressure Reliever Mat for my recliner (as well as the Woolwash), as the condition of my skin and my overall health was poor. I felt so much relief and comfort from these that after another 3-week stint in hospital recovering from HMPV (I do have a terminal illness), I decided to purchase the Medical Sheepskin Rug Natural Shape. I have placed the Underlay and the Rug end to end so I am now enjoying the relief they both give over the whole length of the bed, so no more sore heals or elbows, or dragging skin. The benefits are so great and provide total comfort and softness. I slept directly on the underlay over summer and did not once feel hot or uncomfortable. I would highly recommend the Natural Shape Sheepskin to anyone, for not only the comfort they provide but for the improved sleep quality. My lovely little dog Molly also agrees.....

This sheepskin fits generously on my lazy boy armchair. It is a welcome addition to the support and comfort of my health needs. Highly recommend. I now have a Yellow Earth sheepskin on my bed, mobility scooter, and arm chair. Honestly wouldn't be without them now. Highly recommend.

Hi Anne, we’re so happy you liked the Medical Sheepskin Rug. It means so much to hear how it’s supporting your comfort and health across so many parts of your day — from your bed to your armchair. Thank you for trusting Yellow Earth and for such a heartfelt recommendation. We’re truly glad our sheepskins have made a difference for you.

I absolutely love this mat

I absolutely love this mat. Fits my chair beautifully and the difference between this and my old pink sheepskin is immeasurable. The comfort is unbelievable. It really does ease the pressure by soo much. And it is not hot. Thank you soo much. 💕💕💕💕

Life changing!

I purchased this as I sit for extensive hours for my work and was developing sores. I was not convinced at first as the wool did not feel soft, but after sitting on it for long hours the difference was clear. The temperature regulating aspects and pressure relief has had a significant impact. I have been so attached to my mat, rolling it up to bring it to work, then using it in the car, and when I work from home I bring it home. My partner joked that I should make a pair of undies with this mat to save me from carrying it everywhere! I am saving up to get more and one of the underlays for bed.
I was worried at first what colour this mat would be and was relieved it was a lovely dark forest green rather than a lighter green. Shipping was extremely fast. Thanks so much Yellowearth!

Hello, Jan Thank you for sharing such a detailed and heartfelt review! It’s so rewarding to hear that your Premium Australian Medical sheepskin mat is making a real difference in your day-to-day comfort. We are thrilled it fits seamlessly into your routine and that the dark forest green was perfect. Thanks again for trusting Yellow Earth and we hope your next sheepskin underlay brings even more comfort.

Absolutely perfect for my 92 year old 36kg mother, she seems more comfortable with it under her skinny butt. Cats trying to lay claim !!

Our koalas love the Medical Sheepskin Pressure Reliever Mat

We have a Koala Shelter - ‘Koalas of Raymond Island’ that rescues and rehabilitates sick and injured koala and raises orphaned koala joeys. Our shelter Carers have struggled with the issue of pressure sores with koalas in care that are unable to move around, we have tried lots of options including foam padding & padded pillows, but with the need to be able to change and clean them, these were very difficult. We ordered two of these mats are are really pleased with the quality, we are going to order a few more.
I think these would benefit a lot of people as I have cared for 2 parents with Cancer and have had 3 back surgeries.
Would highly recommend this Pressure Mats.

Purrfect😻

I have hip bursitis and it was recommended that I acquire a medical sheepskin, I'm so glad I got mine from Yellow Earth, it arrived in record time, the quality of the product is amazing, its lovely and thick and soft and it is helping immensely to reduce the hip pressure. The only problem I have is that my cat believes it should be for him. 😄

Medical Sheepskin Natural Shape

The sheepskin is so warm and soothing and naturally comforting. I am a senior person and autistic whom is also physically impaired. I suffer from a hyper sensory processing disorder. The sheepskin does not affect my olfactory function, it did not contain any smells be it chemical or fragrance. It is so very soothing soft and warm as a tactile sensory aid and helps my aching body. Also because it is the natural shape, the size makes it very mobile. I can swap it from my bed and onto my chair. If I did not suffer from olfactory sensory condition, I would use it for support outside my home, on wheelchair in vehicles appointments or outings because it is so portable. Though I do not want to expose nor cross contaminate it with any odours, perfumes or chemicals from deodorised vehicles and environments. So I shall keep it safely in my own environment. It makes me feel very secure and cozy. I am very fortunate I was able to purchase one. Thank you also to the staff for handling the sheepskin and packaging it fragrance free. This has been problematic when I receive orders from many companies who claim products are nonallergenic or fragrance free, which are then handled by staff wearing perfumed and fragranced products on their hands or person. Then I then have to off gas for several days or more outside before I can bring it into my home anyway which makes the whole experience stressful. I did not have to do this with my Yellow Earth order. This made my experience even more positive from Yellow Earth. Thank you.

My medical sheepskin rug.

I received my medical sheepskin rug just over a week ago. Since then I’ve used it to sit on & also lay on in bed. I have a pressure sore & using the rug is so much more comfortable to sit.
