Pressure Mapping Service
At Pearce Brothers Mobility, we employ advanced pressure mapping technology to assess, identify and monitor high-risk areas vulnerable to developing pressure ulcers.
This technique is crucial in redistributing pressure from vulnerable bony prominences to safer, low-risk areas, reducing the risk of discomfort and pressure ulcers.
It also ensures that the correct seating and pressure care product is prescribed to ensure optimum posture and comfort and reduce the risk of pressure ulcers developing or assist with the healing process of a pressure injury.

We have invested in state-of-the-art BodiTrak pressure sensors to ensure accurate assessments and clinical data recording.
This technology is designed to stretch and conform to the seating surface, preventing the “hammocking” effect and allowing precise measurement. With BodiTrak, we can monitor seat pressure both statically and dynamically, assessing pressure from the seat, back, or other areas where skin is at risk.
Applications of Pressure Mapping
Our BodiTrak Seating System offers numerous benefits through pressure mapping, including:
- Detecting pressure points that clients may not be able to feel
- Assessing seating and postural abnormalities
- Evaluating the Centre of Force position and dynamic movement patterns
- Identifying pressure areas that could lead to skin injuries
- Providing real-time feedback on pressure distribution
- Offering visual data for client education
- Assist accurate set up of seating and pressure care solutions to minimise the pressure risk.
Pressure mapping also assists clinicians with clinical reasoning with prescribing the most appropriate pressure care solutions, ensuring each client receives the best possible support.
