Which Pillow Should You Choose?
The right pillow improves not only your head position but also your quality of life. Here is our guide to help you find the model that best suits your needs:
1. Visco Orthopedic Pillows (Pain Relief and Support)
Who is it for?Those with cervical disc herniation, cervical straightening, and those who experience morning stiffness.
What are the features?Produced with NASA technology, memory foam takes shape according to your body heat and weight. By perfectly filling the neck gap, it preserves the "C" curve of the spine and reduces pressure. Slothy Neck Careseries features a specially curved design for this support.
2. Natural Latex Pillows (Flexibility and Coolness)
Who is it for?Those who do not like the "sinking feeling," those who sweat a lot, and those with allergies.
What are the features?Latex, derived from the sap of rubber trees, is more flexible than foam and instantly returns to its original form. Thanks to its natural air channels, it breathes continuously, keeping your head cool without sweating. It does not harbor dust mites and is naturally anti-allergic.
3. Cool Outlast® and Bamboo Pillows (Thermal Comfort)
Who is it for?Those who sweat excessively at night and those experiencing hot flashes during menopause.
What are the features? Outlast® technologybalances heat by trapping body heat and releasing it when needed. Bamboo pillows, on the other hand, absorb moisture 4 times faster than cotton, offering a dry and hygienic sleeping surface.
What Should a Pillow for Cervical Straightening Be Like?
Cervical straightening (loss of cervical lordosis) is the loss of the neck's natural curve. Choosing the right pillow during the treatment process is critical.
- Height:Medium-height (10-12 cm) pillows that fill the neck gap perfectly without pushing the head too far up or letting it drop back should be selected.
- Material:Shape-taking Visco pillowsminimize pain by allowing neck muscles to relax throughout the night.
Choosing a Baby Pillow: When and How?
Experts do not recommend using a pillow until the first year. After the age of 1, thin and firmpillows should be preferred for spinal development.
Slothy Bamboo Baby Pillow, with its 3-4 cm height and air-permeable structure that prevents suffocation risks, is ideal for a baby's safe sleep.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Pillow Technologies
Do Visco pillows cause sweating?
Standard closed-cell Visco pillows can cause sweating as they trap heat. However, Sloth Bedding Visco pillows use open-cell technologyand air channels. In addition, the Tencel and Outlast® fabricsused in our covers prevent sweating by dissipating heat.
What is the lifespan of a pillow?
The average lifespan of a pillow in terms of hygiene and loss of form is 2 years.
Visco and latex pillows are more durable than fiber pillows and can maintain their form for 3-4 years. However, when yellowing, odor, or neck pain begins, it is time for a replacement.
Which pillow is suitable for side sleepers?
In the side sleeping position, the distance between the shoulder and the neck increases. To fill this gap, high (12-14 cm)and neck-supporting pillows should be preferred. High-profile versions of our Slothy Visco or Latex models are ideal for side sleepers.
Can the pillow be machine washed?
The interior of Visco and Latex pillows must never be washed. If washed, their structure will be ruined and they will fall apart.
Only the zippered outer covers can be washed in the washing machine at 30-40 degrees. Airing out the inside of the pillow and wiping it with a damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning.
