Nurse & Healthcare Provider Testimonials
Testimonial from Dr. Karen Zulkowski, DNS, RN
Expert in Wound Care, Former Associate Professor at Montana State University
“Heel injury is a major problem for many of our patients, especially frail elderly individuals or those with chronic conditions requiring prolonged immobility. Heel boots, which are frequently used in these cases, may twist and cause further damage. They are also difficult to put on and remove.”
“The HeelSphere™ is easy to use and cannot become twisted. It allows patients to move freely while keeping the heel off the bed. I recently had a friend experiencing a heel issue—he tried the HeelSphere™, and it worked incredibly well. For the first time in a long while, he was able to sleep without heel pain. I hope this product will soon be widely available.”
Feedback from Hospital Nurses & Wound Care Experts
This device is so simple yet so crucial. I’ve seen patients struggle with bulky heel boots, but HeelSphere™ is lightweight and intuitive period.
I have back pain from repositioning patients constantly—this device holds the heel up for me, reducing my workload significantly.
Pre-existing devices fall short because they don’t stay in place. HeelSphere™ does, and it actually works.
This is common sense in a device. It’s like reinventing the wheel—but the right way.

A Patient’s Experience with HeelSphere™
Condition: Post-Surgical Recovery & Limited Mobility
“I had to spend extended time in bed after surgery, and my doctors warned me about the risk of pressure injuries. I was initially given a heel boot, but it was bulky and uncomfortable—I kept taking it off. Then I was introduced to HeelSphere™. It felt soft, secure, and allowed me to move my foot naturally. I no longer worried about my heel touching the bed. It made a huge difference in my recovery.”
