Coussin etc. Multifunction Cushion – Planètes

Print: Planètes

You buy it for one reason and end up using it for everything: sleeping, doing yoga, meditating, reading, watching TV.

2009: a valuable collaboration with Dr de Gasquet, a perinatal expert acclaimed the world over, produced the multifunction cushion.

For expectant mothers it is an ally: it carries through pregnancy, the birth and the postnatal period without ever getting in the way.

It allows optimal positioning and relieves certain discomforts.

Numerous Quebec health facilities use it: Ste-Justine, Cowansville, St-François d'Assise, Sacré-Cœur, Maisonneuve-Rosemont, Baie-Comeau.

It is not reserved for expectant and new mothers — sleep, yoga, reading, meditation, rest or a hospital stay, everyone gets something out of it. Your teenager will borrow it too.

• Hugs and supports the body
• Resistant to dust mites and mould
• Delightfully light
• Versatile
• Durable: it stays good-looking and keeps its shape
• Machine washable

The pattern comes from a print illustrated by the artist Valérie Parizeault.
