Renpho Shiatsu Massage Pillow | NDIS Pain & Sensory Aid

Manage chronic pain, muscle stiffness, and sensory needs independently with the Therapeutic Shiatsu Massage Pillow. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this compact yet powerful device is specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with reduced mobility, chronic fatigue, or sensory processing differences.

For many participants, accessing manual therapy regularly can be logistically difficult or expensive. This pillow mimics the hands of a massage therapist using four 3D deep-kneading nodes that rotate to release tight muscle knots and improve range of motion. The integrated heating function provides gentle warmth (approx. 40°C) to stimulate blood flow and soothe discomfort in the neck, back, abdomen, or legs. Compact and portable, it empowers users to manage their pain symptoms and sensory regulation needs from the comfort of their own chair or bed, reducing reliance on carers for physical relief.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Pain Management: The deep kneading action targets trigger points and reduces muscle spasticity, offering a non-pharmacological method to manage chronic pain conditions.

• Sensory Regulation: The consistent, rhythmic pressure of the massage nodes provides proprioceptive input, which can be grounding and calming for participants with Autism or high anxiety levels.

• Promoting Circulation: Optional heat therapy warms the muscles, promoting blood flow and aiding in the recovery of stiff joints and soft tissue after daily activities.

• Enhancing Independence: Empowering the participant to self-manage symptoms immediately when they occur, rather than waiting for a scheduled therapy appointment or support worker.

Key Features & Benefits

• 3D Shiatsu Nodes: Four powerful nodes rotate to mimic a real deep-tissue massage, effectively targeting knots and tension in the upper and lower back.

• Customizable Intensity: Features 3 adjustable speeds (Low, Medium, High), allowing the user to tailor the pressure to their specific pain threshold or sensory tolerance.

• Soothing Heat Function: The optional heating mode warms muscles to increase flexibility and relaxation; this can be turned off for users who are sensitive to heat.

• Secure Attachment: Equipped with an adjustable elastic strap (hook and loop style) to fasten the pillow securely to office chairs or wheelchairs, ensuring targeted therapy without slipping.

• Bi-Directional Movement: The nodes automatically reverse direction every minute (or can be manually toggled) to ensure a thorough and balanced massage experience.
