Abstract

A method and system (100) for adjusting pressure in pockets (112) is provided. The system (100) including at least one pressure measuring device (102) in at least one pocket (112) of a structure to detect stress areas in an individual; a control unit (111) for receiving device data transmitted by the at least one pressure measuring device (102), the control unit (111) comprising: a receiving module (105) and a monitoring module (107) for receiving the device data; a processing module (106) for receiving the device data from the receiving module (105) and determining if pressure in the at least one pressure measuring device (102) requires change; and a pressure unit (103) in the structure for receiving instructions from the processing module (106), wherein the instructions are provided to the at least one pressure measuring device (102) for adjusting the pressure in the at least one pocket (112).
