As part of the 30th national Pink October campaign and the numerous actions carried out by the City of Frontignan la Peyrade and its partners throughout the month, ergonomic heart-shaped cushions, specially designed for women suffering from breast cancer. breast, during the sewing workshops of thescissors and silver thimble, were delivered on Monday October 16, in the presence of David JARDON, municipal councilor responsible for public health, at Montpellier Breast Institute and at the oncology department of Saint-Clair Hospital in Sète.

The heart cushion, placed under the arm, is intended to relieve post-breast cancer pain by reducing tension due to surgery. This prototype was set up by an American doctor. If its realization seems basic, the shape is nevertheless very specific because the curvature of the heart must be perfectly adapted to the curvature of the underarm, moreover the padding must be made with 170g of polyester wadding (neither foam, nor hydrophilic cotton, nor kapok) which provides analgesic compression.
