Buckwheat Hull Pillows for better sleep
Buckwheat hulls, also known as sobakawa hulls or sobagara husks
have been used in pillows, also known as "makura" for over 600 years in Japan.
( makura is the Japanese word for pillow )We have a lot of information on
buckwheat pillows. To

buckwheat pillow Now.
Our Buckwheat hull pillows are the quietist, safest, and
longest lasting pillow available.
This pillow has been recognized for its benefit to persons
suffering from
Sleeplessness,
headaches,
neck pain,
low back
pain, muscle tension, stress,
snoring,
and other aliments.
The Buckwheat Hull Pillow, according to Paul Saskin,
(clinical director of the Regional Center for Sleep Disorders,
which is associated with Columbia Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center.)
may result in better sleep in some people.
Without endorsing it, Saskin explains that any highly conforming
pillow may help two sorts of sleepers: people who tend to snore when lying on
their back, and people with fibromyalgia, which can cause pain in the neck and
upper back.
In the case of a back-position snorer, the pillow could provide
better cervical support to keep the sleeper's airway open wider, which would cut
back on snoring, an audible vibration that occurs when the airway is narrowed.
In fibromyalgia, a pillow could "realign the neck just enough to
ease pain in the upper (trapezoid muscles)".
The natural filling has many advantages over conventional fiberfill, foam, or
feather fillings.
The most important quality for the relief of pain is that the material
conforms to the exact contours of the head and neck providing a compliant
passive support. This means that you have the same amount of support in all
areas minimizing the stress on all areas of support. Other filling materials
which compress, try to recover their original shape and this puts stress on the
muscles of the neck.
The buckwheat hull filling cools in the summer, and retains warmth in the
winter due to its superior insulating properties.
Several of the pillows have the ability to be configured to your needs by
adjustable compartments. They all can be adjusted to your individual needs by
removing or adding buckwheat hull filler so the pillow fits you just right.
The filling also lasts for many years making the pillow the best value
cervical pillow on the market. Long after other pillows have collapsed and worn
out a buckwheat hull pillow will still be fully functional.
These are also environmentally friendly - for each pillow put to use it will
save the manufacturing of the synthetic filling for ten or more ordinary
pillows.
