Pillows are necessities that each of us use and are closely related to our lives. The quality of pillows directly determines the quality of our sleep. As the saying goes, “sit back and relax”, but in real life, “sit back and relax” does not necessarily mean “sit back and relax”. So what kind of pillow is best for you?

First of all, we must understand our own sleeping habits , lying on your back? Lying on your side? Or prone? Or you like all three*. Then, according to your sleeping habits, choose a pillow that can keep your cervical spine neutral during sleep. Neutral here means that the head does not tilt upward, nor bend downward, nor does it tilt to the left or right. The pillow can not only support the lordosis of the neck, but also accommodate the kyphosis of the occiput (back of the head) of the head, so as to ensure that the neck muscles are fully relaxed during sleep.

Some people feel uncomfortable if they sleep half My hands and feet are numb because the pillow is too high. A healthy pillow can maintain the natural curve of the neck, reduce the pressure and tension on the joint muscles, and achieve a relaxing effect. However, the pillow should not be too low. A pillow that is too low can easily cause the jaw to lift up, leading to loud snoring, which will interfere with the sleep quality of the person sharing the bed. Moreover, if the pillow is too low, the head will be congested, which may easily lead to eyelid and facial edema, stiff neck, improper muscle exertion, etc.

Pillows should not be too hard. And mattresses can easily put point-to-point pressure on various parts of the body, causing muscle soreness, poor blood circulation, etc., and causing physical discomfort. The width of the pillow must be sufficient. Normal people will change different postures during sleep. The pillow should have enough space to allow the body to rotate freely.
When choosing a pillow, you must choose the one that suits you. The most expensive one is not necessarily the best. In short, the pillow that is most suitable for your cervical spine is the best.
