Atlantis Long-Handled Round Bath Sponge
Inability to reach each body part poses health risks such as skin irritation to people who are less limited, making the right bathing tools essential. The Atlantis Long-Handled Round Bath Sponge allows patients to clean themselves, reducing the need for constant supervision by a carer. This saves money, time (for both patient and carer) and upholds dignity to those who use it, benefitting professionals and their patients directly.

Round Sponge Head
A round sponge head provides better coverage and even application of soap or cleanser on the body, ensuring thorough cleansing. Its ergonomic design allows for easy manoeuvring and reaching difficult areas, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the cleaning process. The rounded shape also minimizes the risk of abrasive friction, promoting a gentle and comfortable experience during use.
Exfoliating Body Sponge
This sponge uses a combination of soft polyfoam for very gentle exfoliation. This cleans disabled patients significantly more than standard brushes, and decreases likelihood of skin conditions which are significantly more common amongst disabled patients. The exfoliating nature of the sponge leaves the user with clean, soft and polished skin for a spa-like treatment that leaves them protected and pampered.
Mobility Assistance
Many elderly and disabled individuals may have limited mobility or range of motion. A long-handled sponge allows them to reach and clean various parts of their body without the need for excessive bending or stretching, reducing the risk of falls or strain.
Independence and Dignity
Using a long-handled sponge enables individuals to maintain a level of independence in personal hygiene tasks. People who use the Long Handled Sponge are therefore able to uphold a sense of dignity and self-esteem, as they can perform essential daily activities without constant assistance.
Reduced Strain on Joints
For those with arthritis or joint pain, a long-handled sponge minimizes the need to bend or twist joints during bathing. This can alleviate discomfort and promote joint health by reducing stress on affected areas. This design is therefore a brilliant solution for anyone with compromised mobility.
Prevention of Skin Issues
Proper hygiene is crucial for preventing skin-related issues, especially for individuals with limited mobility. The extended reach provided by a long-handled sponge ensures that all areas of the body can be effectively cleaned, reducing the risk of skin infections or irritations, making it a fantastic tool for upholding hygiene and safety.
