Ergo pillow has the best solution for neck pain in infants, kids, adults and seniors when sleeping in an upright/seated position.
The neck pillow is made up of three components: a head rest platform, two raised sidewalls, and a neck support (contour/arch cushion).
Head rest platform (cushion) for the back of the head located between both sidewalls that are high enough guaranteeing that the head does not fall sideways, provides stability against motion, and reduces the risk of an injury.
The back of the neck support, the contour arch, is low preventing the neck from being pushed forward and any pressure at the back of the neck. The memory foam conforms to the anatomical structure of the cervical spine for perfect fit. Keeps the head upright and ensure proper head, neck, and spine alignment.
Here are problems that occur when ergo pillow is not is use.
GRAVITY: During a deep sleep, the muscles are relaxed and do not support the weight of the head. The force of gravity causes the head to lean sideways. Staying in this position will put an excessive strain on the muscles and spine resulting in stiffness and or neck pain can induce headaches. (Ergo pillow keeps the head upright, does not allow the head to fall sideways.
LACK OF HEAD SUPPORT: Most neck pillows support the neck but, offer NO support to both sides of the head. This flaw in the pillow design is the main reason it is unable to stop the head from falling sideways.
BAD NECK SUPPORT: When a pillow does not fit the anatomical structure of the neck. The arch of the cervical vertebral column is about 2-3 inches, when using thick pillow (4-5 inches) it will increase pressure at the back of the neck pushing the spine forward which will cause unnecessary neck pain.
Throat Obstruction Pillows that may also increase heat to the neck.
