Medicinal sheepskin and lambskin

<h2>A Texel medicinally tanned sheepskin is of high quality</h2> <p>The Texel sheepskins come from the Texel breed. The coat of the Texel is known as the best sheepskin due to its thick wool and structure. These properties make the wool firm but soft to the touch while being breathable. As a result, a fleece will not scalp and regulates temperature appropriately. </p> <h2>What is the difference between a medicinally tanned sheepskin and an ordinary coat? </h2> <p/>A medicinally tanned sheepskin is tanned in a special way. This makes the coat extra soft and safe for the skin and preserves the lanolin or wool fat. The lanolin is known for its good properties for your skin and is therefore often used in sheep's wool creams. </p> <p>In addition, a medicated sheepskin is shaved short. This brings the hairs of the wool to one length and makes it comfortable to lie or sit on. By shaving the medicinal fleece short, it is also pressure relieving and therefore helps in a natural way, with pain complaints.</p> <p>A regular sheepskin is also very comfortable to sit or lie on, but due to the longer hairs, it is less suitable for healthcare. These coats are therefore often used for interior decoration.<h2>The advantages of a medicinally tanned coat in a row:</h2> <p><ul> <li>The coat prevents bedsores (decubitus).</li> <li>A safe natural product that helps with joint pain and other aches and pains.</li> <li>Soft for the skin due to the lanolin present.</li> <li>Moisture regulating and does not fester.</li> <li>They are washable (in moderation) with a 30-degree wool wash.<li> </ul></p> <h2>What medicinal sheepskin to buy?
