Something went wrong with the pillow

In the past, when I bought a pillow, I often encountered it, and I felt that my shoulder and neck were sore and there was no way to relax when I lay down, and I changed more than 3 pillows, but I couldn't find the most comfortable one. I feel comfortable but I can't fall asleep, and after I get up, I feel stiff and very sore in my shoulders and neck, which is the problem with the pillow! Make a list of five secrets you definitely miss when buying a pillow!

1.Pillow has a ** height?

The first important point is the height of the pillow Usually as long as the pillow height is right, then it is half the distance away from insomnia! According to the different body types of each person, the height of the suitable pillow is also different, and most people have a pillow height of 8 11 cm. But there are occasional exceptions, there are people who only lie down to 5 cm, and there are many people who sleep until 15 cm. Instead of obsessing over numbers, the key is actually to support the shoulders and neck, and let the shoulders and necks relax, is the best pillow height.

2.Momentary sensations may not be real

Many people will experience the comfort of the pillow by trying to lie down, but in fact, the body will feel comfortable and distorted because of lying down, and experts say that the concept of lying down for a minute is completely different from sleeping for a whole night. When you walk for a long time, let you lie down at this time, no matter how hard it is lying on it, you will also feel relaxed all over. The key is to lie down for a long time, is it comfortable? Usually a soft bed feels very comfortable when you lie down, but after a long time, your lower back hurts so much that you can't do it. Pillows too! It is recommended to try to lie down for more than 15 minutes by feeling the head, neck, and shoulders on the pillow and with the attitude of going to sleep.

3.Relaxation is not the same as comfort

Relaxation and comfort may seem the same, but they are not the same! Relaxation is a state that does not require exertion, close to a state of no stress; Comfortable refers to feeling comfortable in the current state. So when choosing a pillow, the best way to do it is to feel relaxed and comfortable, not just comfortable. Instead of just sleeping, pillows are used for the relaxation of the head, shoulders, and neck, and if your pillow does not have such an ability, then it may not be suitable for you!

4.Do you have a splitting headache when you wake up in the morning?

Lying on the pillow is most afraid of stuffy sweat, pressure on the head is uncomfortable, as long as the head feels hot, it will be difficult to fall asleep, feel irritable and unhappy. It's important to have a pillow that keeps your head cool and breathable. When the head sleeps all night and presses on the pillow, if there is no good suction pressure, it is actually a great burden on the head, and the force and reaction force will make the head bear a certain force, and when you get up in the morning, it is very like the head is beaten all night and feels like a headache.

5.It is important to lie upright and on your side

When we fall asleep, it is difficult for us to control our body to lie on our sides, and even if we control ourselves to lie down before going to bed, we still sleep messily when we wake up! According to the experimental report, when people sleep, they will unconsciously turn over about 20 40 times on average. So a good pillow must allow you to lie on your side, you can sleep relaxed and comfortable, the next time you buy a pillow, you might as well turn around and see!
