The Neck Doctor Pillow from MedProforma is Recognized by the Canadian Physiotherapy Association. The combination of molded visco-elastic foam with an adjustable air bladder along the neck portion is a unique product with patents pending.
Available in two different models: Adjustable and Contour (non adjustable), the Neck Doctor Pillows mold to your head and neck, providing unparalleled comfort and support. They are designed to hold the cervical spine in a neutral position, thereby minimizing stresses on the vertebral joints and soft tissue while resting. In choosing the right model, here are a few points to guide your choice. The Adjustable pillow is for someone who likes or needs more support while sleeping. The Neck Doctor Contour suits people with prevention in mind, giving support to their neck in a very cuddly pillow. The Neck Doctor Adjustable pillows have a major advantage for a more serious neck problem because you can easily increase or decrease the support under your neck. The C.P.A. suggests that it may take up to two weeks to get used to using the Neck Doctor Adjustable Pillows and that they are not a substitute for medical advice.
Like developing an excellent wine, there is a combination of art and science to create the ultimate foam. For the Neck Doctor pillows, we have intentionally created a visco-elastic foam that retains its “body” and support, as well as offering pressure relief by being sensitive to your body temperature and pressure. When touching this type of foam you will find that it does not “push back” the way conventional foam does. Although the foam feels quite firm when you first lie on it, after a short period you will notice it has taken the contours of your head and neck and is softly cradling them. These pillows are among the few top quality orthopaedic pillows existing today. All MedProforma Pillows are made of 100% high-density (6 lb.) open celled visco-elastic foam that is hypoallergenic, and CFC and formaldehyde free. The pillowcase, made of a plush sherpa cloth (80% cotton, 20% polyester), is machine washable.
The discovery of visco-elastic foam has introduced a technology that revolutionizes sleeping systems. There is an extraordinary comfort and health benefit with visco-elastic foam because it responds to body weight and temperature by molding to the individual, providing more evenly distributed support and minimizing compression on pressure points. This means you will sleep more quietly and be better rested in the morning. Considering that we sleep for approximately 1/3 of our lives, choosing bedding that also supports correct posture is a worthy investment. As this photo shows, even in side lying on the MedProforma mattress, your spine is in alignment. An insert of a hand imprint beside a product identifies that it is made with this new visco-elastic foam.
