Unique Wellness Brings NASA Technology to Senior Care with Its Advanced Briefs

Wellness Briefs, Pull-Ups, and Underpads deliver industry-defining absorbency, comfort, and dignity through engineered InconTek® technology
BROOKLYN, NY, UNITED STATES, July 7, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- When astronauts travel to space, even the most basic bodily functions require innovative solutions. NASA's answer to managing hygiene during long missions was the Maximum Absorbency Garment (MAG)—a high-capacity, multi-layered brief designed to keep astronauts dry and safe during spacewalks. Now, that same engineering excellence is helping transform incontinence care for millions of older adults through Unique Wellness, a U.S.-based healthcare brand committed to bringing space-age innovation to everyday life.
At the core of Unique Wellness' award-winning product line—Wellness Briefs, Pull-Ups, and Underpads—is its proprietary InconTek® technology, inspired by the MAGs and used by NASA. This multi-layered core system is designed to absorb up to 87 ounces of liquid, reducing leaks, preventing skin breakdown, and significantly lowering the number of daily changes required.
With this innovation, Unique Wellness is redefining what it means to provide effective, dignified incontinence care. As the global elderly population continues to rise and more than 25 million Americans live with incontinence, the demand for premium hygiene products has grown rapidly.
For seniors, caregivers, and healthcare professionals, Unique Wellness offers a solution that combines performance with compassion.
Wellness Briefs: Designed with maximum absorbency in mind, these briefs minimize overnight changes, eliminate common issues such as leakage and foul odor and are suitable for both mobile and bedridden users. Wellness Briefs feature a 3-per-day change system to reduce up to 70 percent in product use over regular brands, which also saves a lot of time, cost, and laundry.
Wellness Pull-Ups: These provide the same advanced absorption in a more flexible, underwear-style design. For active seniors seeking discretion, comfort, and mobility, Wellness Pull-Ups are the perfect option. Whether running errands or relaxing at home, users experience the confidence of leak-free protection.
Wellness Underpads: Meant to be used on beds, chairs, and wheelchairs, these protective pads provide another level of protection. Their absorbent core and soft, breathable materials help maintain cleanliness and skin health in both clinical and home settings.
Wellness Brief® Softistico™ Pack: The latest in the Unique Wellness offering of incontinence care range, the Softistico ™ Pack is a luxury solution, elevating comfort and performance. The Softistico ™ is developed with extra-soft, breathable materials, facilitating all-day wear to deliver maximum comfort for sensitive skin. It is also the first-ever breathable adult diaper with secure tape tabs (not Velcro) and a resealable landing zone, allowing for easy adjustments and a custom fit.
Conventional incontinence products often require 6-8 changes daily, resulting in caregiver burnout, higher expenses, and user discomfort. InconTek® changes the equation. Its layered core system draws liquid away from the skin and traps it deep inside the brief, keeping users dry for up to 8 hours. This innovation not only boosts comfort but also supports skin integrity by reducing exposure to moisture and bacteria.
Combined with advanced odor control, the technology ensures users remain comfortable, confident, and dignified throughout the day and night. Whether in a hospital, long-term care facility, or private home, Wellness products provide a dependable, high-performance solution that prioritizes both user health and caregiver efficiency.
Unique Wellness designs its products with both clinical professionals and family caregivers in mind. Reduced changes mean fewer interruptions, better sleep, and more time for care.
'The only product that lets my dad sleep through the night without interruption.'
— Caregiver, Illinois
'I've tried many brands. Nothing compares to the absorbency and comfort of Wellness Briefs.'
— Home Healthcare Nurse
Key Benefits:
Sustainability: Fewer changes = less waste and lower environmental impact.
Skin Health: Dermatologically tested and breathable materials reduce rashes and pressure sores.
Cost Efficiency: Fewer changes result in reduced monthly product usage and caregiving time.
Odor Control: Built-in odor-neutralizing layer ensures long-lasting freshness.

Olivia Munn Reveals Her Mother Has Breast Cancer, 2 Years After Her Own Diagnosis: ‘Heartbreaking'

Olivia Munn revealed that her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer after encouraging her to take the same Tyrer­-Cuzick breast cancer risk assessment that 'saved my life' Her mother underwent a double mastectomy, 12 rounds of chemotherapy, immunotherapy and will continue monthly treatments The actress admitted that although she's gone through breast cancer herself, watching a loved one go through it is 'even more heartbreaking'Two years after her own diagnosis, Olivia Munn revealed that her mother is now battling breast cancer. 'My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer,' the 45-year-old shared in an Instagram post on July 9. 'You may know that when I talk about my own battle with cancer I bring up the Lifetime Risk Assessment test that saved my life. I never would've predicted it would save my mom's life as well. ❤️' Munn explained that after learning she had breast cancer in 2023, she urged her mother to take the Tyrer­-Cuzick breast cancer risk assessment. Based on a variety of factors — including family history, the date of a woman's first period, breast density and her age when her first child was born — the free tool estimates a woman's risk of developing invasive breast cancer within the next 10 years and within her lifetime, Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi, a board­ certified OB/GYN and Munn's doctor, previously told PEOPLE. A lifetime risk score of 20 percent or more suggests high risk, and additional diagnostic screening may be required. Munn said that her mother scored 26.2% despite having a clear mammogram, so the actress insisted that she get an MRI.

'Shortly after, my mother was diagnosed with stage 1 Her2 breast cancer. She has since completed 12 rounds of chemo and will continue monthly Herceptin transfusions until this fall,' Munn wrote. 'From my mom being there after my double mastectomy to me being there after hers. From me having to find an oncologist, to my mom and I sharing one. I can tell you this: going through cancer is really hard. But there's something about watching a loved one go through it that is even more heartbreaking.' 'My mom's husband , Sam and I learned everything we could about Her2, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, cold caps… I spent many nights taking care of my mom when the chemo became too much, wishing I could fight the fight for her, even if only for a day to give her a little break,' she continued. 'It's no small feat to realize you can't do it for them. To anyone out there who is taking care of someone or has made it their profession to do so, thank you. These gifts can feel near impossible without you.' ! Munn's post included several photos and videos throughout her mother's treatment journey, including a clip of her ringing the bell after completing chemotherapy. The X-Men Apocalypse star then stressed the importance of the breast cancer risk assessment test, noting that it 'saved my life and now my moms.' 'We're taught about our periods, yearly Pap smears and mammograms at 40. And we now need every gynecologist to incorporate the lifetime risk rest into their care plan,' she wrote. 'All of these things matter, you can't leave one off. My mom wanted me to tell you that she hopes by sharing her story it will help save someone's life." 'I want to say how proud I am of my mom,' she added. 'She's handled all of this with bravery and humor while still driving us crazy (just says after her double mastectomy she tried to do laundry and make dinner - she's insane.)' Munn ended the post by thanking the several people who were a part of her mother's medical team. is now available in the Apple App Store!

She has since had five surgeries, including a lymph node dissection, a double mastectomy and a hysterectomy. During the 2025 TIME Women of the Year Gala in February, she said she's 'doing really good' as she discussed her treatment and health. 'I'm doing really good today,' Munn, who was an honoree at the event, shared. 'I am working through different medications and I think anyone who's gone through any kind of cancer, but specifically breast cancer, understands there's a real science to figuring out the best kind of medication for you.' While Munn admitted 'there are good days and bad days,' she said that she has "hit a good stride' when it comes to her health. Read the original article on People

Enviros sue to compel crackdown on use of refinery chemical

Environmental groups want a federal judge to order an EPA crackdown on the risks posed by oil refineries' reliance on hydrogen fluoride, a potentially lethal compound used in making high-octane gasoline. Hydrogen fluoride 'is so acutely toxic that exposing just 1% of skin to liquid HF — about a hand's worth — can be a death sentence,' the Clean Air Council and two other organizations wrote in a lawsuit filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. At least 40 refineries around the United States still use the chemical, the suit says, adding that a worst-case accident at some of them could lead to a toxic cloud threatening hundreds of thousands of nearby residents. Advertisement 'Because HF is hazardous to all life, a refinery-related release could destroy crops, livestock, wildlife, and natural areas,' the challengers added, noting that a 2019 explosion at the now defunct Philadelphia Energy Solutions facility released more than 5,000 pounds of hydrogen fluoride and injured five workers.
