Discomfort due to pillows can often result in a poor nights sleep. This is because of the pressure points in the body not being aligned. An inflatable neck pillow can align these pressure points and reduce neck pain, joint pain and can even help with snoring problems. All of this can aid a good night sleep.

Features

An inflatable neck pillow often comes with an air pump which helps to adjust firmness thereby providing support with a squeeze of the pump. It can also act as a cervical neck pillow which cradles the neck in its natural position while you sleep and provides therapy for both back sleeping as well as side sleeping.

The air pump has adjustability and can be used to fill the amount of air desired. It is ideal for back or side sleeping. It is designed to provide proper support to the head and neck during both back sleeping and side sleeping. It supports the head at the proper height no matter whether you sleep in the back position or the side position. While you sleep on your back, it prevents the head from rolling sideways and fits the head in the proper position during back sleeping. It also provides support to the neck and upper back while you sleep on the back.

An inflatable neck pillow supports the head and also provides support to the cervical region. Customizable support zones are available in most pillows which provide inflatable firmness and support. They are adjustable and can be customized to contour with a twist of the valve.

The inflatable valve control provides cervical spine support that relieves tension in the muscles and neck which lead to pain. The valves are easily adjustable to provide a customized fit.

Advantages

One of the best advantages of an inflatable neck pillow is that it can easily be deflated. This makes it ideal to travel with. You can tell a good inflatable pillow by the amount of breaths it takes to blow up, a good one should only take a few. You should invest in a soft cover if you have a pillow that is made out of plastic; this is to make it more comfortable.

The amount of air inside an inflatable neck pillow should be adjustable and it is good to have one with an air release valve which can release pressure from within the pillow if required, thereby providing a good fit around the neck. One of the main advantages of an inflatable neck pillow is that it can be decompressed and stored in a smaller space even a handbag to be used during travel.

An inflatable neck pillow will use air cell technology to reduce any pressure on the pressure points. This will increase the blood flow and will align the spine properly. Because the pillows are lightweight and easily inflated they work really well as travel pillows. Pillows will change their shape to suit you whichever position you like to sleep in making sure that your body is properly aligned throughout the night making sure that you get a fantastic nights sleep.
