The Makura Pillow is the finest buckwheat hull pillow and
has been produced since 1986. It has become the #1 buckwheat hull pillow
used in the medical profession.
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 hull pillows.
Others may be a little cheaper, but none are quieter, safer,
and longer lasting than the original Makura Miracle Pillow. The Makura Miracle
Pillow is the one brand most recommended by Chiropractors, Physical Therapists,
and Massage Therapists.
The natural filling has many advantages over
conventional fiberfill, foam, or feather fillings.
Better Support
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.
Temperature regulation
The buckwheat hull filling cools in the summer, and
retains warmth in the winter due to its superior insulating properties.
Adjustable support
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.
Buckwheat hull pillows 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.
