Abstract: A user positioning apparatus is provided including a malleable pad including a first gel elastomer. The first gel elastomer is releasably connectable to the second gel elastomer, and an adhesive layer is connected to the second gel elastomer. Further provided is a user positioning method. The user positioning method includes providing a malleable pad including a first gel elastomer, providing a platform, connecting the malleable pad to the platform via the first gel elastomer, providing a user, and positioning a body part of the user on the malleable pad. Further provided are a releasable fastening system, a releasable band, and a method for connecting a user to a platform. Further provided is a user positioning device including a malleable pad including a gel elastomer, the gel elastomer including a reaction product of a composition including an isocyanate prepolymer and a polyether polyol.

Abstract: An insole comprising a bladder which is filled with a water and air, and having a metatarsal and heel area for cushioning the foot of the user. Flow restrictions are located between the metatarsal and heel area of the bladder so as to restrict the flow of water and air from the metatarsal area to the heel area and vice versa. The flow restrictions are C-shaped seals in the bladder and provide a massaging action for the foot of the user.
