Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

In general consumers rate Comfort, Price and Quality as the most important factors in choosing a pillow.

The perfect pillow should:

	rebuff to its original shape when you shake it out
	prevent waking with a stiff neck
	offer ideal comfort for your "going-to-sleep" body position
	be hypoallergenic, washable and inhibit the growth of allergens

Many pillow manufacturers suggest choosing a firmness level based on how you sleep.

	those who sleep on their stomachs need medium support
	people who sleep on their backs need firm support
	those who rest on their sides need an extra firm pillow

Seventy percent of neck problems can be traced to the type of pillow being used or to poor sleeping posture(Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation department at the Montreal General Hospital)
Experts cite that a large pillow that angles the head up is bad because it forces neck - area muscles and ligaments into unnatural positions. During sleep, the muscles relax and the ligaments are stretched, holding up the head. Morning neck pain results.
The optimum support comes from resting your head in a concave depression, the edge of which supports the curve of your neck. This can be done with pillows that have loose fillers by scrunching up the contents to form the bowl-shaped indentation for the head and an edge for the neck.
With pillows the critical thing is to fill either the space between neck and bed
(if you lie on your back) or between the side of head and edge of shoulder
(if you lie on your side). This is easily done with natural filled pillows.
