Usually, the appropriate height of cervical spondylosis pillow is 9- 10 cm, but the specific size depends on everyone's physiological characteristics, especially the physiological curvature of the neck. The old Chinese doctor suggested that the height of the pillow can be the same as the height of the patient's fist and hand. People with broad shoulders and fat bodies can have a slightly higher pillow, while thin people can have a slightly lower pillow.
Sleep habits also have an influence on the height of pillows. For people who are used to sleeping on their backs, the pillow height of cervical spondylosis should be equal to the fist height after pressing (fist height is the standard of fist height). For people who are used to sleeping on their side, the height of cervical spondylosis pillow should be consistent with the shoulder width after oppression. Of course, the cervical spondylosis pillow that can keep the normal physiological curvature of the neck whether sleeping on the back or on the side is the most ideal.
For the cervical spondylosis pillow itself, the part supporting the nape of the neck (neck curvature) is slightly higher and has a certain hardness to set off and maintain the physiological curvature of the neck. The part supporting the back of the head should be 3 ~ 5 cm lower than the above parts, so as to fully support the head and adapt to the height of the neck.
