The average pillow is around three years old, some even older.
"A quality pillow can be the single most important investment you make in a good night's sleep. Old pillows, and pillows overdue for the washing machine, can significantly downgrade the sleeping experience,” says Mr Pillow
Some of the better pillows are made from a substance called Memory Foam. Memory Foam is specially manufactured to remember and conform to your personal shape. It’s used, not only for pillows and travel pillows, but also mattresses, mattress toppers and shoe insoles. There are even products for your pets too.
If pain from neck or back injuries keeps you awake, an orthopaedic restore memory foam pillow could well be the answer. Aromatic pillows scented with lavender , eucalyptus or jasmine have theraputic properties which may assist in tension release & help promote sleep. Sleeping with a pillow between your knees can help to relieve lower back pain. Experiment and see what works best for you.
If your pillow is growing old or has taken on a greyish colour, do yourself a favour. Get rid of it and buy a new one. Your body will thank you.
Your head weighs approximately 4-6 kg. The only rest your neck muscles get is when you are lying down. It is important to rest these muscles with a pillow that properly supports your head and helps to maintain the natural curve of your neck.
Temperature sensitive, visco-elastic memory foam reacts to your body's warmth making this pillow supple and supportive.
Moulds itself to your head and neck providing constant support and proper spinal alignment.
Proper spinal alignment is important while sleeping to allow the body to recharge with spinal fluid and improve blood flow to the brain.
Unlike conventional pillows that go flat the Mr Pillow memory foam orthopaedic pillow always returns to it's original shape.
Open cell structure allows the foam to breathe eliminating the build up of moisture and odour. Don’t cheat on your sleep, buy the best, buy from Mr Pillow.
