Pillow or bolster?
Are you hesitating between a traditional pillow and a bolster to improve the quality of your sleep? This question often comes up among people concerned about their nighttime comfort and cervical health. Each of these sleeping solutions offers specific advantages depending on your sleeping position, ergonomic needs, and personal preferences.
The advantages of the modern pillow
The ergonomic pillow is now the preferred solution for restful sleep. Unlike traditional bolster pillows, the pillow offers targeted and personalized support:
- Optimal Neck Support : An ergonomic neck pillow perfectly fits the natural curves of your neck, reducing muscle tension and pain when you wake up.
- Adapts to your sleeping position : Whether you sleep on your back, side or stomach, the pillow adapts to your body shape to maintain spinal alignment.
- Innovative technologies : Memory foam pillows use viscoelastic foams that react to body heat and perfectly conform to the shape of your head and neck.
- Specialized solutions : Some models, such as the anti-snoring pillow, are designed to promote a position that clears the airways.
The bolster: a tradition that endures
The bolster, a legacy of traditional French bedding, has certain particular advantages:
- Continuous support : It provides uniform support across the entire width of the bed, ideal for those who move a lot during the night.
- Versatility : Can be used as a reading support in bed or as a divider in a double bed.
- Classic Aesthetic : Fits perfectly into traditional or elegant bedroom decor.
