While almost all of us knows about memory foam mattress toppers and mattresses you may not know about all of the benefits of memory foam pillows. Memory foam pillows provide the best support for your neck and head since they conform to the shape of your body and give you individualized support. They are made from the same gel like polyurethane foam as the mattress pads and mattresses.
Using a memory foam neck pillow can reduce the pain that all too often comes when you use a regular pillow. They can be found in many different thicknesses and shapes so you can find the one that fits your neck the best. Memory foam is an amazing material that contours to the shape of your body. It is full of thousands of tiny cells that change shape when pressure is applied.
As the air leaves one cell it moves to the surrounding cells so that it matches the shape of the pressure from your body. Memory foam neck pillows are made by many of the same firms which make mattress toppers and mattresses. There is a big price range for these pillows from to over 0. Similar to what you see in other memory foam items there are different densities of neck pillow to choose from.
The ideal range for a memory foam pillow is between 3.5 and 4.5 pounds per cubic foot. Since your head and neck weigh much less than your whole body they do not need to be as dense as a memory foam mattress. Lots of people like to use memory foam travel neck pillow while they travel. They come in a variety of shapes including rectangular, wrap around, and U shape. The U shaped pillow is great for use during air travel to lower the strain which is put on the head and neck.
