Rating of the best pillows for cervical osteochondrosis for 2022

Cervical osteochondrosis is called a disease of the XXI century and computer technology. A person spends several hours during the day, and sometimes the whole day, intensely peering at the monitor or the screen of a mobile phone. The cervical spine is in a constant tone, blood circulation is disturbed, it is possible to clamp individual sections of blood flow, arteries. Cerebral circulation suffers, the work of all organs of the head.

It is important to use sleep to restore the conductivity of the main and small vessels, relieve tension in the spine, and restore the anatomical contour.

How to choose the right pillow for cervical osteochondrosis

The recommendations of the attending physician are of great importance when choosing. In addition to various fillers, the level of rigidity and dimensions, the height and individual additional effects of the bedding should be taken into account.

Filler

People who do not suffer from allergies can focus on models made from natural compounds. Modern technologies have made it possible to use compositions such as latex, gel, foam as fillers.

• Natural and artificial latex

The first option is made of natural material, has a pronounced bactericidal effect, ventilation and is protected from dust.
Synthetic latex largely copies the properties of the natural version, but at the same time is much cheaper. Such a material loses its elasticity properties relatively quickly, as well as the warranty period of service.

• Foam fillers

Memoryforms have a cellular structure, which allows them to follow the contours of a sleeping person. Such compounds well relax the cervical vertebrae and provide free blood flow. The absence of response pressure guarantees full sleep and relief from headaches.

• Polyester filling

The best indicators are not only in the affordable price section, but also providing the necessary elasticity, hypoallergenicity, and heat savings.

• Gels

The gel has a cooling effect, is pliable and follows the shape, minimizing the response pressure.

• Spring blocks

Along with polyester fiber and foam, independent mini springs are included in the composition. This design subtly responds to the movements of a sleeping person and has a high anatomical effect. Different stages of cervical osteochondrosis are combined in different ways with a similar model.

• Bamboo

Natural material has a high antibacterial characteristic. Italian popular brands are known, with prices for products above the average level.

• holofiber

The padding base of the filler determines its low cost. The material is also distinguished by its long service life and elasticity. There is insufficient ventilation.

• Buckwheat husk

Excellent characteristics are provided by naturalness and acupressure in the neck area. Models are able to relieve migraines, pain in the neck and shoulders.

• Wool

The filler is contraindicated for allergy sufferers, but for other patients, the models are distinguished by excellent ventilation and thermoregulation.

• goose down

Natural properties determine softness and excellent breathability. For allergy sufferers, there are severe contraindications.

• Cedar shavings

The filling material is usually confirmed by a certificate. The characteristic taiga aroma soothes and sets you up for sleep. An important quality is the lack of special cleaning and care.

The size

Individual predisposition plays a key role. Habit completes the scenario of choice. Children, as a rule, get pillows with dimensions of 20 * 30 or 40 * 50. People of a large physique should stick to models 50 * 80 cm.

Height

The height parameter plays a major role for users diagnosed with cervical osteochondrosis.
With a feeling of numbness, tingling in the neck, a desire to roll the pillow in two to adjust the height, we can conclude that the height was chosen incorrectly. The optimal height is measured from the neck to the beginning of the humerus.

Variations in the height of the models are in the range from 6 to 16 cm, so it is worthwhile to approach the determination of the optimal configuration responsibly.

The form

All pillows can be divided by shape into:

1. rectangular;
2. wavy;
3. wedge-shaped;
4. "bagels" or "crescent".

The wave-like appearance is provided by the presence of 2 rollers, which are either the same height or may differ in cross-sectional diameter. The versatility of the model lies in the use for various sleeping positions.

Rectangular models are the most common and the features lie in the composition of the filler.

The bagel shape is most commonly used when traveling. It is also able to compensate for pain and discomfort in the vertebrae.

Wedge-shaped forms are used by pregnant women and people with respiratory diseases.

Rigidity

Soft fillers are more often chosen for sleeping on the stomach. For those who spend most of the night on their back, hard options are more suitable. Medium hardness is universal, but individual preferences should be taken into account.

Cases

The purpose of the cover is manifested not only in the aesthetic side of the product, but also in the wear characteristics, the level of tactility.
The cover material can be:

• plush;
• cotton;
• wool;
• artificial leather;
• silk.

Manufacturer

Orthopedic sleeping products are confirmed by certificates, and the manufacturer gives a guarantee.When diagnosing cervical osteochondrosis in a chronic form, you can contact companies that have confirmed the quality - EcoSapiens, Brener.

Other popular models include:

• Kamasana;
• Lotus;
• Day&Night;
• Doctor Health;
• EKON;
• Sonex;
• Andersen;
• Bilana;
• Novita;
• Phinex;
• Armed;
• Veneto.

Errors when choosing

It is important to remember that the concepts of anatomical and orthopedic pillows are different.
Anatomical models are characterized by mobile, small fillers that can take the contours of a resting person.
For orthopedic products, the main parameter is the formation of a position that helps restore the correct configuration of the cervical spine.

Properly selected size and height of the model determines the level of effect from use, while an error in dimensions will not bring the expected healing result.

Two rollers should be used with the correct approach:

1. the higher one is located at the shoulder level;
2. on a low position the back of the head, the front part.

Proper care will ensure a long service life, so it is important to familiarize yourself with the cleaning conditions at the time of purchase.
