In order to choose a good pillow for yourself, you need to take into account several points: in what position do you like to sleep, what kind of stiffness you have a mattress, your height and shoulder width.
All people sleep in different poses, so the choice of pillow is very individual. For those who sleep on their side most of the night, a harsh pillow should be purchased. For those who like to sleep on their backs, a medium-hard pillow is suitable, and for those who like to sleep on their stomachs, a soft one.
The height of the pillow will directly depend on the stiffness of the mattress: the softer the pillow should be higher.

Orthopedic pillows are becoming very popular, they provide the correct position of the head during sleep, giving the back and neck the opportunity to relax. But with such pillows, one should be very careful for those people who have problems with the spine, only a doctor can choose the shape of the pillow.
In recent years, pillow manufacturers have significantly expanded the number of fillers, the most popular of them: feathers, synthetic winterizer, silicone, buckwheat husk.
For many years, down and small feathers have been a traditional pillow filler. They circulate air and absorb excess moisture during sleep. So that they do not collect different debris and dust, as well as bed mites, you need to constantly care for such pillows and periodically clean them. Sometimes feather pillows can cause allergies, so they are not suitable for everyone.
The synthetic winterizer belongs to hypoallergenic materials, therefore pillows with such a filler do not cause allergies, are convenient to use, they can be washed and used for a long time. But sinteponovy filler does not pass air as well as feather.
Silicone is also a synthetic and hypoallergenic material, it is even softer and has better breathing ability than synthetic winterizer.
A buckwheat husk cushion allows air to pass through and has a calming and therapeutic effect. It is useful to use to improve blood circulation, since during sleep there is a natural massage of the neck and occipital part of the head.
Choose a pillow correctly and it will allow you to fully relax and ensure a healthy sleep.
