How to determine the right gel neck pillow height for pain-free sleep 

The right gel pillow for all sleep types - with individual height adjustment

Orthopaedic gel neck support pillows adapt perfectly to the shape of the head and neck in any sleeping position thanks to their ergonomic shape with indentations and bulges. Painful misalignments of the cervical spine are avoided.

In the case of premium gel pillows, the pillow height can usually be adjusted using an additional foam insert inside the pillow. By removing or rotating the foam insert, up to six different height settings can be made on the cushion.

The result: the natural shape of the spine is maintained during sleep, so that existing tension in the neck and throat area can be relieved or does not occur in the first place.

A gel effect neck support pillow is ideal for side and back sleepers. However, stomach sleepers and people who change their sleeping position at night also benefit from the ergonomic advantages of a gel pillow.</p

<p>Good to know: A gel pillow can also be helpful for sleep problems such as snoring or sleep apnoea, as it prevents the airways from narrowing due to kinking of the cervical spine.

<p>Tip for allergy sufferers: For people with a house dust allergy, we recommend a gel pillow with anti-allergic filling and a washable pillow cover that can be easily cleaned in the washing machine at 60° C to remove allergens.

A gel neck support pillow is helpful for:

• Headaches due to tension
• Tension pain in the throat, neck and shoulder area
• Sleeping problems due to an uncomfortable sleeping position
• Snoring and sleep apnoea

Does your sleep also suffer from one of the aforementioned problems? Then an orthopaedic gel pillow could be the solution to alleviate your symptoms. Thanks to the improved sleep ergonomics, pain problems usually disappear within a few days and are replaced by deeper and more restful sleep. However, health problems and the causes of pain should always be discussed with a doctor to rule out more serious illnesses.

<p>Ergonomically shaped gel pillows - suitable for every sleep type

To ensure that you wake up in the morning without headaches and neck pain, the gel pillow must suit your sleep type and meet your individual requirements for comfort and support. The right pillow height is crucial

Gel pillow for side sleepers

The side sleeping position is one of the most popular and most common sleeping positions. Side sleepers are therefore particularly frequently affected by tension pain. If you also sleep on your side, it is important that the comparatively large space between your shoulder and head is optimally filled. The gel pillow should be chosen slightly higher or be adjustable accordingly.

<p>Gel neck support pillow for back sleepers

As the cavity between the back of the head and the mattress is not particularly large in the supine position, a neck support pillow with a low height is recommended for this sleeping position. Otherwise, the spine bends in the neck area, which is one of the most common causes of tension and neck pain.

<p>Gel neck pillow for stomach sleepers

A flatter pillow is also recommended when lying on your stomach. Very few people sleep with their face in the pillow. In most cases, the head is turned to the side, which already changes the anatomy of the spine. An additional elevation would only further bend the spine.</p

<p>Tip: Gel cushions with individual height adjustment are ideal. This means that the pillow can be individually adjusted to the preferred height and can continue to be used even if the sleeping position changes.
