More On Air-Core Adjustable Cervical Pillow

• Natural placement of the head and neck, accomplished with the many different styles and shapes of Core cervical pillows, can help relieve intense pain by providing natural and correct posturing in supine (back) and side-sleeping positions.
• Cervical support pillows are used when a cervical hypolordosis (less than normal curvature of the spine) exists, to prevent hypolordosis, or when cervical spasms or strains occur.
• These pillows are orthotic devices (apparatus used to align or support) used to help relieve spasms, remove minor tensions and maintain or resume the natural cervical lordotic curve while at rest.
  
  

• Support pillows are designed to help a. correct and b. maintain proper cervical posture/alignment while sleeping by providing the right amount of resistive feedback into the cervical & upper thoracic musculature.
• Special Note: Support type pillows are orthotic devices (like a custom orthotic in your shoe) and therefore may take time to get accustomed to. Healthcare providers should give patients proper education regarding the time needed for training the musculature in accepting the pillow. Although some people can react positively to this type of pillow immediately, others may take up to 2 weeks of gradual increased use through the night. Patient should use pillow to waking tolerance and then switch to previous pillow for the rest of the night. Each successive night, patient should increase time support pillow is used through the night.

• Allows for comfort and support.
• High quality fiber is blown to exact specification to insure uniform distribution and pillow weight.
• Originally used to emulate features of natural down pillows & used in comfort for accommodation. Advances in fiber have resulted in great ability to comfort & support.
• Core Pillows use conjugated fiber which acts like a spring.
• During manufacturing, high pressure will link fibers together & different resiliency levels can be created in the pillow. This process helps fiber stay in place and resists migration, yielding consistent support as fiber generally has amorphous tendencies and can clump or rat tail during cleaning.
• Foam can offer the most consistent support but Fiber currently can offer almost as much but with more comfort.
• Fiber material is available in wide array of sizes, shapes & coatings.
• Has ability to perform as either a semi-solid or semi-fluid.
• Polyester fiber has natural flame retardance & durability.
