Buckwheat Hull Pillows
A solution to what ails you
When sleeping on a
buckwheat hull Makura Miracle Pillow, all the muscles and tendons are
relaxed and in their preferred position of proper cervical curve (normal
cervical lordosis). The passive and compliant support of buckwheat hulls support
the entire head and neck area uniformly. With fiberfill and foam pillows (even
those designed to be 'cervical' pillows) there are always areas of the pillow
that are more compressed than other areas, which forces your muscles to fight
back against the pressures. The relaxation of the shoulder and neck muscles
during sleep let the nerves heal from the daily irritation of head, back and arm
movements.
HOW DOES THE MAKURA MIRACLE PILLOW HELP
HEADACHES?
The complete and almost immediate relaxation of your muscles while laying on
a buckwheat hull pillow, tends to lower blood pressure, which is a major cause
of stress related headaches.
HOW DOES THE MAKURA MIRACLE PILLOW HELP
SNORING?
With the head fully back and the neck properly supported, airway passages are
more opened and less restrictive. The Makura Miracle Pillow seems to work to
reduce or eliminate snoring in about half of users. The people who are not
helped may have more serious problems such as sleep apnea and are strongly urged
to see a qualified health professional as soon as possible.
HOW IS THE PILLOW HELPFUL FOR
LOW BACK PAIN?
When your neck is placed in normal cervical lordosis, your spinal cord is
relaxed (shortened), thereby putting less stress on the lumbar nerve roots where
they exit the spine. This is often a source of pain when there is any type of
disk problems. You can also achieve additional relaxation of the spinal cord
when you place a pillow under your knees. The pillow can also help mid-back
(thoracic) pain, but not as much as the upper (cervical) and lower (lumbar)
spine.
HOW DOES THE MAKURA MIRACLE PILLOW HELP
TMJ
(Temporal Mandibular Joint) PROBLEMS?
The jaw joint is affected by about 17 different muscle groups. The neck and
shoulder muscles play an important roll in the interaction of these muscle
groups. The more relaxed the neck and shoulder muscles, the easier it is for the
smaller jaw and facial muscles to function properly. As a former TMJ sufferer
myself, I also found it nice to be able to make a hollow area in the pillow so
it wouldn't even touch the painful sensitive area of my jaw. More details on
TMJ.
HOW DOES THE MAKURA MIRACLE PILLOW HELP
SLEEPLESSNESS?
When you lie on a Makura Miracle Pillow and your muscles relax, you tend to
fall asleep faster. Many people also find that they don't toss and turn all
night long like they did on regular pillows, in fact many people have said they
wake up in the same position they fell asleep in and apparently hadn't moved all
night. You may even find that you wake up more refreshed and alert with fewer
hours of sleep than ever before. There is even some speculation, although not
tested or confirmed that resting your head on natural buckwheat hull pillows
allows the electro-magnetic field of the brain to function normally as compared
to the effects of static charge buildup in synthetic fiber, foam, and feather
pillows. People have also reported more lucid dreaming while using the pillow.
