Pad!t Ergonomic Fluid Management Mat

FYI: Air and fluids flow through a grid of openings on this 18" x 27" pad
and onto a separate absorbent pad. GelPro touts the mat's shock-
absorbing, breathable three-dimensional design, claiming the mat's
rows of foam projections massage and conform to your feet by stabiliz-
ing weight distribution. The mat's ergonomics are said to boost the
body's blood and oxygen flow, increase fine motor activity to support
better posture, and make load distribution and skeletal centration
more efficient by "stimulating greater coordination" within the nervous
system. The bacteria-resistant, waterproof mat is made from closed
cell ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and is sold in packs of five for $174.75.
