Hmmm?

I hadn't thought about pressure sores because this chair is designed to alleviate on particular areas (usually the buttocks). The guy that sold it to us said that the chair cradles your body . The brand name is Pride, and insurance (including Medicare) reimburses you about one-third of the total cost.
However, the key to dealing with pressure sores is to move often - don't rest on the same areas for long. And if you do get a callous or scaly area, keep it clean and apply antibiotic or cortisone cream.
Best to you.
