What are the characteristics of neck pillows?
Neck pillow is a kind of pillow that is beneficial to the cervical spine. It is hard. It is different from ordinary pillows in that it is pillowed under the neck when it is used. Cervical pillows are used to correct the cervical spine.
The principle of cervical spondylosis is as follows: the normal human cervical spine is naturally curved, while the cervical spine of cervical spine patients is straight. To treat cervical spondylosis, it is necessary to correct the straightened cervical spine. When the patient lies supine on the cervical spine pillow, the straightened cervical spine is automatically corrected by the gravity of the head. Cervical spine pillows have a long history of use in our country, and have spread to Korea, Japan and other places in modern times. It is a very effective method of cervical spine health care.
What is the effect of pillow height?
Cervical pillow is the main tool to maintain the normal position of the head and neck. This “normal” position refers to maintaining the physiological curve of the head and neck itself. This physiological curve not only ensures the balance of the external muscles of the cervical spine, but also maintains the physiological anatomical state in the spinal canal. Therefore, an ideal pillow should meet the physiological curvature requirements of the cervical spine, with soft texture and good air permeability. The ingot shape with low middle and high ends is better. It can also play a relative braking and fixing effect on the head and neck, which can reduce the abnormal activities of the head and neck during sleep.
