Many laudatory words are said about "darling, white cushion." But, of course, not about everyone, but the most convenient. After all, there are those on which you can’t fall asleep. Like Masha from the cartoon, who quarreled with her own pillow. Here, size is not as important as form and content. Instead of a shell full of different materials, an inflatable pillow can also inspire sweet dreams.
It turns out that when we use an ordinary pillow, we sleep incorrectly (in terms of the condition of the musculoskeletal system). If you remember the lessons of human anatomy, you probably noticed that, normally, the crown of the skull, neck and spine as a whole are connected by one straight line. An ideal pillow helps maintain this line during sleep. But if it is too hard, the cervical region is bent and excessively raises its head. On the contrary, if the pillow is too soft, the neck without support is bent down.
The consequences of this bias are multifaceted. Due to the additional load on the intervertebral discs, the risk of osteochondrosis increases. The muscles of the neck are in a state of spasm, blood circulation is disturbed, and hence the supply of oxygen to the head. In general, all tissues of the body also experience this condition, since the curvature of the respiratory tract makes it difficult for air to enter the lungs.
And here is an inflatable pillow? It is universal in this regard. It can always be pumped up to achieve greater hardness, and, conversely, that is, it is more flexible to adjust the position of the head, minimizing the harmful load.
Another negative "reverse side" of the soft pillow is the filler: either traditional (down and feather), or modern synthetic. Both species are more or less excellent provocateurs of allergic reactions. Fillers close to ideal, unfortunately, are much more expensive and not everyone can afford.
What is good about an inflatable pillow: its filler is always at hand, and in unlimited quantities. Often, to bring it into working condition, you do not need a pump, your own lungs are enough. And compared to the swan and goose down, inhabited by dust mites,
compressed air is perfectly clean.
A variation of the familiar bedding is an inflatable collar pillow. She helps out a lot during long journeys when you have to travel while sitting. In this position, the
muscles of the neck and base of the head have to experience a lot of stress. Because of this tension, it is almost impossible to fully relax and rest. The pillow-collar, firstly, removes muscle tension, and secondly, fixes the neck and head in the correct position. This pose favors a relaxed and deep sleep.
Inflatable swimming pillows are of great benefit, allowing children under three years old to take water treatments. And not only at home, but also in the open air (if the depth of the reservoir is not more than a meter). Bathing in infancy is very important, because it is not so much a hygienic procedure as a wellness one. The problem arises only with the fact that the baby still does not know how to hold his head above water. An inflatable pillow in the form of a collar around the neck gently, without discomfort, supports the child, and gradually all his anxieties due to water pass. There are frequent cases when babies swimming with inflatable pillows began to swim on their own before walking.
