When sleeping, people need an ideal pillow, which can accompany us to spend a wonderful night and bring us health. However, what kind of pillow is the ideal pillow? I think people should meet three requirements: first, comfort; The second is to bring health to people; The third is beauty.
When it comes to comfort, people often think, I like a taller pillow, which feels good. Someone said, I want a lower pillow. It's good to sleep. Some people say that the health pillow I am sleeping on now has a high neck and is very comfortable to sleep. These expressions are all correct. Due to different human needs, people have different views on pillow comfort. To sum up, the comfort of pillows can be reflected in the following aspects:
First of all, a reasonable height. No matter how high a pillow you like, the height must suit you. Being reasonable means meeting your physiological needs. Someone wants to ask, how tall should I be? I will explain this problem to you in the back health pillow.
Secondly, softness is very important. As we all know, human head has hair, scalp, skull and so on. But there are very few muscles here. Unlike people's buttocks, they have large gluteus maximus muscles and can contact hard objects for a long time. There are few muscles in the human head, so the objects that support it need to be soft. However, is the whole pillow soft? That was not the case. Because a pillow needs not only a pillow, but also a pillow neck. The neck of the pillow should not be too soft, it needs to be strong. There are two reasons: first, strong substances can better hold up the cervical spine; Second, the neck muscles are relatively more, not as "fragile" as the head.
Comfort and health are inseparable. Only when you are healthy will you feel comfortable. So a good pillow, more importantly, brings you health. In order to achieve the goal of health, we need scientific guidance.
Now let's talk about what science pillows need. To sum up, I have the following points:
First, you need a pillow and a neck. Pillow, people often think that it is only used to pad the head, but forget to pad it around the neck. Therefore, it often leads to the lack of effective relaxation and rest of the neck, and cervical spondylosis will immediately take advantage of it and make you restless for a long time.
Second, the pillow should have a reasonable height. The "height" here consists of two aspects, namely the height of the pillow and the height of the pillow neck. The height of the pillow should be around one punch, which means the height of the press. If the pillow is made of cotton, it is necessary to consider whether it is perforated when pressed down. The occipital neck position should be slightly higher than the occipital position, but not too high. Generally, it is advisable to have one or two fingers higher.
Third, the soft and hard are reasonable. Pillows should be soft. The occipital neck position should be harder than the pillow position in order to be more compressible.
Fourth, the pillow should be warm. The warm-keeping part of the pillow mainly needs to be in the occipital neck, because catching cold in the neck will directly lead to the contraction of blood vessels in the neck and the deterioration of blood circulation, which will affect the rest of the neck. So when sleeping, it is best not to use a pillow made of bamboo. The gap of bamboo pillow is too wide, and it is the easiest to catch cold.
Fifth, good air permeability. Good breathability can keep the neck skin breathing, which is also beneficial to perspiration.
Sixth, the pillow should have a certain width. Generally, it is 10 to 16 cm wider than its own shoulder. Because people can't help turning over when sleeping, the width is enough to ensure that their heads don't leave the pillow when turning over.
People always love beauty, and pillows need to be beautiful and generous. To maintain the beauty of the pillow, we also need to pay attention to the plasticity and color of the pillow.
In a word, a good pillow is inseparable from your careful selection. Based on my point of view, I think you should be able to find or make a satisfactory pillow!
