Symmetric Sleep System

Hello, my husband is bedbound with PSP and is in a foetal position practically all the time. His OT visited a few months ago suggested he may benefit from the Symmetric Sleep System. She brought the rep round to try the system on Jim and he managed to straighten out his legs. He’s got funding approval and gets the system installed next week.

I just wondered if anyone had experience of the system? Thank you.

Would you share a webpage for the system your OT recommended? I googled, but am a bit confused by the results. Thank you.
