Orthopedic pillows

Neck and back pain in the morning is a torture and you cannot feel your hand, because all night it lies under your head? Solution is found! You need a new pillow! But what kind of pillow to buy? Each one has its own "character". This is what we will speak about in this article.

The first thing you need to know is that a pillow is selected on the basis of how you sleep. The main criterias are height and stiffness, as well as an anatomical shape. 

Let’s take a look at these criterias:

• If you sleep on the back the pillow should have some sort of deepening for the head. Should have a medium hardness and a height of 8-10cm. Preferably, a rectangular shape, possibly with a roller.
• Sleeping on the side - here will help a high and firm pillow, the height of which should be the length of the width of the shoulder. Also could fit a rectangular pillow with a roller and a deepening for the shoulder.
• On your stomach - the soft and thin pillow will approach. Use any pillow in a standard shape.
• For those who spin in a dream, you need a soft pillow, so that it is comfortable to use it in any position. Ideal form, pillow letter "P" or "G". Such pillows are also very comfortable for a pregnant women.

Also, it is very important that you could minimize the decorative elements, because they can cause a discomfort during your sleep. 

The next thing to remember is a filling material. They are two types: natural and synthetic.

Natural:

• Goose down and feathers are suitable for people who don’t have allergies. Perfectly restores and maintains its shape. Requires regular maintenance and replacement.           It is the most popular and an expensive option.
• Sheep wool has a good heat distribution, as well as resistance to moisture, but wears quickly.
• Bamboo fiber is an environmentally friendly, antibacterial material. One of the minuses is an instant loss of durability when it gets wet.
• Plant materials (hop cones, buckwheat husks, etc.) are sufficiently rigid, but also very “loud”. Requires regular replacement and special care.

Synthetic:

• Silicone filler is cheap, light and durable, keeps its shape well.
• Polyester fiber is a fairly airy material, but very short-lived and excessively soft.
• Viscoelastic fiber passes air very well, distributes the temperature and ideally maintains the position of the head, but has a very high cost and is immune to washing.
• Microgel analogue of a goose down, which does not have any minuses. Ideal air circulation and breathability, elasticity an thermoregulation.
