Frequently Asked Questions.
How does this bolster improve client positioning and therapist ergonomics?
The Earthlite DuraBolster reduces pressure on key anatomical areas such as the lower back, ankles, and neck by sustaining proper alignment. This ergonomic support allows therapists to deliver targeted pressure effectively without overexerting themselves or causing patient discomfort, enabling longer, more focused treatment sessions.
What is the best way to clean and sanitize this bolster?
Its polyurethane-based Nature's Touch upholstery should be cleaned with a mild soap and warm water solution or a specialized non-alcohol clinical disinfectant. This approach avoids damaging the surface or accelerating material degradation, supporting the bolster's longevity in clinical use.
Where does this item ship from?
This item ships directly from our physical operations and shipping point in Eatontown, New Jersey or the manufacturer's USA warehouse, depending on stock levels.
Typical shipping times: Most supplies and accessories and on-the-shelf items typically are shipped out within 1 to 2 business days, barring unforeseen backorders. If you’ve also ordered items that are "built to order" such as some customized tables they typically ship from the manufacturer's warehouse within 7 to 14 business days or longer for larger stationary or lift tables. If you’ve ordered multiple items from multiple brands then you’ll probably receive multiple box shipments that arrive on different days. Weather and backorders will increase these estimates.
