The present disclosure provides apparatus and method for improving rehabilitation of patients with limited mobility. The apparatus comprises a foam block, with a plurality of foam support pylons thereon, creating a nearly planar top cut according to the support pylons. The foam support pylons have the desirable effect of mitigating pressure and blood pooling at undesirable sites on the patient's body. The method comprises creating such a foam block and placing it under the patient's body in the patient's bed. The support pylons may have sensors or be capable of receiving changes to their physical structure to further facilitate rehabilitation. This can be achieved using electrical wires running through trenches between the support pylons.
