Types of pillows?

There are literally hundreds of different types, sizes, shapes, and fillings of pillows. What individuals need often relates to their particular body size and shape, and in which position they sleep. Any spinal condition that they may have, and of course, individual choice, also play a part. For free advice on the particular pillow best suited to your needs, please don’t hesitate to contact us. With twenty three years' experience treating thousands of patients with all manner of spinal problems, I have the experience to offer you to help you choose the best pillow for you.

Memory Foam

Memory foam was originally developed by NASA in the 1970s as an ultra high density support to protect astronauts from excessive G-forces in space. Memory foam pillows provide outstanding support to keep your neck and upper spine resting in their natural positions. The memory foam then remembers these, and can return to your natural body contours ready for the next night’s sleep. Maximum airflow also optimises comfort.

If you suffer with back ache or a stiff neck in the mornings then your mattress may well be too soft or too hard - a memory foam mattress or topper will conform to your body weight and shape enabling a restful sleep.
Advantages of memory foam include the fact that it's fire retardent to BS5852 and hypoallergenic, making it great for allergy sufferers.

At 'Back in Brighton' I stock various types and sizes of memory foam pillows, including travel and 'C' shaped pillows for extra support to the neck.
