How to choose the ideal pillow The ultimate guide to choosing a pillow

In our busy modern life, a good night's sleep is vital to our health. And choosing the right pillow is one of the key factors in ensuring a comfortable and quality sleep. In this article, we will share some professional advice on how to pick the ideal pillow to help you find the best sleep partner for you.

Pillows are used to support our necks, and they support the back of our heads, necks, and shoulders together. The human spine normally has an S-curve. When a person lies flat on the bed, the cervical spine will form an inverted C curve, which is called "neck curvature." If our pillow only supports the head, and there is no support for the neck to bear force, the pressure on the cervical spine will increase. When we wake up the next day, we often feel a sore neck, as if we are not awake, and over time, it will cause damage to our spine.

Therefore, a good pillow is crucial to our sleep quality.

To choose a pillow that suits you, please refer to the following points:

Pillow Height

When lying flat, the height of the pillow should be the height of your fist.
The place where your neck is supported should be about 3 to 5 cm higher than your fist.
When sleeping on your side, the part of the pillow that supports your neck should be the same height as your shoulder width.

Pillow Width

The width of the pillow is generally 10~16cm wider than your shoulder width, so that your head will not fall off the pillow easily when you sleep.

Pillow Material

The material of the pillow core will affect the comfort of the pillow. You can choose the material of the pillow core according to your own needs.
