What kind of pillow is the most comfortable

To protect the S-shaped natural curvature of a person's spine, it is necessary to sleep with a pillow on the cervical spine and head. Pillows are directly related to the treatment of cervical spondylosis and the quality of sleep. Using a good and suitable pillow can not only get twice the result with half the effort, but also prevent the onset of cervical spondylosis. What kind of pillow is the best? A good pillow should have at least the following factors: 1. The shape of the outer pillow should be "contour curved surface", and its longitudinal section (that is, the cross section seen from the middle of the pillow) looks like a flat "B" with two protrusions to alleviate the excessive arc, in which the lower part of the cervical vertebra is 2-3 cm higher than the lower part of the head. When people sleep on their backs, this shape conforms to the physiological curvature of human cervical vertebrae. When a person sleeps on his side, it just fits the characteristics of big head, thin neck and curved face. The cervical vertebrae will not be skewed, but will remain in a natural position, so that muscles, ligaments and nerves can be fully relaxed, so that each cervical vertebra can be naturally loosened, so that the intervertebral disc can absorb more nutrients and delay degeneration. The traditional oval shape is not good, which will make the curvature of cervical spine disappear, reverse arch and lateral curvature. In order to straighten or quickly restore the cervical curvature of the posterior arch, the doctor will also recommend the use of a semi-circular pillow or a round pillow by using the weight of the head, which is a relatively strong means of overcorrection. Although the effect is obvious, it is risky to use it for too long, so it is best to listen to the doctor's guidance and wait until the cervical curvature is healthy before giving up! People's shoulder width is always greater than the height of cervical curvature, so in principle, the pillow height required for supine and lateral lying is different. Using the rotation of the shoulders and the deformation of the soft mattress to make the acromion fall into when sleeping on the side, this difference can often be ignored. However, for people with particularly wide shoulders and/or stiff back, it is best to use a pillow higher than sleeping on your back when sleeping on your side. For example, the middle of the pillow is concave, and the average height of both sides is 2-3cm higher than the middle. The problem can be solved by sleeping on your back in the middle and sleeping on your side. The shape of scientific pillows is always strange, which is often incompatible with the original decoration of the bedroom. People will not get used to it at first and need a process. The contour surface shapes such as height and softness are only set with pillow drops under the neck pillow, and the basic height under the surface is different, because different people have different spinal curvature and need to be treated differently. Generally speaking, according to the order of babies, children, teenagers, ladies, men and the elderly, pillows should be 2... 12 cm to match the characteristics of the spine and make it naturally relaxed. In order to make the skin stress uniform (local pressure should not be too high), the pillow must have a certain softness, and the head and neck will sink about 2-3cm when it is put on. After accurate calculation, it is recommended that the height under the pillow is 3- 12 cm, and the height under the pillow is 2-9 cm when the pillow is not loaded. For example, ladies are generally suitable for pillows as high as 8-6cm. When the weight is actually placed on the pillow, the neck height is 6 cm and the pillow height is about 4cm. And so on. As mentioned above, because there are some differences in the height difference between sleeping on the back and sleeping on the side, especially in the case that the mattress is hard, the shoulders are wide and the back is hard, for people who sleep in the sky for a long time, if there is no special shape of the middle depression, the pillow can be reduced by about 2cm according to the previous standard. By the way, it is medically recommended to sleep on your side. Why about 60% people in our country are used to sleeping on their backs? It is precisely because of the bad pillows and mattresses in the past that my ears, shoulders, hips and knees hurt when I sleep on my side. As time goes on, people are forced to develop them. Since you can sleep on your side, of course you can change. As for people who are used to prone, this habit is even worse. It is not easy to adjust the height of the pillow. It is suggested that they sleep on a long mat, so they can naturally bend over. After the material meets the requirements of shape and height, we should pay more attention to what material is used for the pillow core. There are countless varieties on the market, such as herbs, buckwheat, magnets, airbags, water bags and so on. However, it is found that they have one or more defects in softness, formability, durability, cleanliness, skin affinity and so on, which are not ideal. Natural plant materials, such as herbs, buckwheat and tea. Because they can't inhibit the growth of mold, they are easy to mold, and they can't remove the irritating smell produced by mold growth. If they are not air-dried, the inner core will immediately grow white hair and be unclean; Some plants emit persistent odor, which stimulates respiratory tract and nasal cavity cells, endangering health and sleep; We should know that the skin's absorption of Chinese herbal medicine ingredients is very meager, and many functions that claim to be effective are only Chinese medicine reasoning, lacking utility experiments. When it is popularized abroad, it is difficult to achieve hygiene and safety. Magnets and wood are excellent in texture, which often oppress the skin and hinder local blood circulation. If you sleep soundly, it is easy to make your skin red and numb, make people wake up in pain, turn over too much, and sleep becomes shallow; Magnetic fields and infrared rays are mostly commercial gimmicks, and their practical effects are very limited; Core materials such as rayon (elastic cotton), high-elastic sponge, spring, etc., due to the continuous elastic effect, cervical muscles can't relax all night! And the head is easy to slip, even if it is cheap and beautiful, it should be eliminated as soon as possible; Down materials can't provide enough support at all, the head is basically empty, the physiological curvature and shoulder height of cervical vertebra can't be maintained, and there are many dust mites inside, which is easy to cause asthma attacks. As a pillow material, it is very poor; Compared with the previous cotton roll, cotton has better mechanical properties, but it will be compressed and deformed after sleeping for a long time, so it is not easy to make a contour surface, and its resistance to bacteria and mites is not very strong. If the economy is not affluent, we can consider them. The air bag and the first surface of the water bag wall are airtight materials, which are not good for the skin. It is also difficult to shape it into a contour surface, and it is easy to slide and cause stiff neck, which is not ideal. In recent years, there has been an international consensus that memory cotton is the best. This kind of memory sponge is a special and expensive sponge material jointly developed by Europe and America more than ten years ago. It has an unusual texture. Pressing by hand will leave a dent for a few seconds, commonly known as slow rebound sponge, which is very suitable for the field of protecting human body. When used as a pillow, it is almost perfect: memory cotton has a strong deformability, and memory cotton can change its shape to adapt to the slight differences in head shape, auricle shape and neck shape. Just like customizing models for different people in advance, the head and neck can be evenly supported, and there will be no pressure higher than 36mmHg affecting the blood circulation of the skin, which is unmatched by other substantive materials. (In actual use, if you don't move for a few hours, you won't feel some numbness and auricle pain, you won't feel uncomfortable, and you will turn over less. Of course, you can completely fall into deep sleep); Memory cotton's self-shaping depression can fix the skull and effectively reduce the occurrence of stiff neck; The automatic shaping of cervical vertebra root can properly fill the shoulder gap and avoid the common problem of shoulder bed leakage; Memory cotton is particularly strong in vibration absorption and silencing, with less sound waves coming from the ear canal and bones and quieter sleep; The softness specially modulated for the human body gives most people a comfortable feeling, which makes people adapt to the strange "B"-shaped surface quickly, which is conducive to popularizing the scientific pillow shape; Try Ames contour pillow, you will have unexpected effect!
