A good pillow is just as important as a good mattress for ensuring quality sleep. Yet, it is often overlooked when furnishing the bedroom. Here is everything you need to know to choose the ideal pillow.
1. According to your sleeping position
On your back: Opt for a medium-height pillow that supports the neck without pushing the head forward.
On your side: Choose a firmer and thicker pillow to fill the space between your shoulder and your head.
On your stomach: Favor a very flat and soft pillow to avoid cervical tension.
2. The filling
Feathers and down: Very soft and fluffy, they offer luxurious comfort but can cause allergies.
Memory foam: They adapt perfectly to the shape of your head and neck, ideal for neck pain.
Latex: Firm and breathable, latex is hypoallergenic and very durable.
Synthetic fibers: An economical and easy-to-maintain option, ideal for people with allergies.
3. Size
Choose the size of your pillow based on the size of your bed and your personal preferences. Standard sizes (60x60 cm) are suitable for most beds.
4. When should you change your pillow?
It is recommended to change your pillow every 1 to 2 years. A worn-out pillow no longer supports your head correctly and can be a source of pain and poor sleep.
