  • BUTTOCK SUPPORT FOR AT LEAST PARTIAL LOAD-RELIEF OF THE BODY WEIGHT OF A PERSON, AND LOAD-RELIEF SYSTEM COMPRISING SUCH A BUTTOCK SUPPORT
    Publication number: 20240074932
    Abstract: Disclosed is a buttock support for at least partial load-relief of the body weight of a person, the buttock support having two support regions adapted to receive at least part of a buttock region of the person. Also disclosed is a load-relief system having the aforementioned buttock support. The two support regions are separated from one another by a gap and are rounded. The gap separates the two support regions from one another centrally. The buttock support significantly simplifies the connection of a person to the aforementioned load-relief system to prepare for manual and/or automated physical therapy and also ensures that the thigh region, in particular the inner face of the thigh, and the groin region are accessible for further medical/therapeutic treatment by the medical staff.
