Let's take a quiz and see the following symptoms. How many projects have you encountered?

1, I always have a stiff neck for no reason. My neck is uncomfortable when I sleep. I woke up listless in the morning and seemed more tired after a sleep.

2. After sitting for a while, I felt sore at the back of my neck, and I felt a little more comfortable after massage, but I felt uncomfortable again in a few days.

3, vision has been affected, I used to see things unclear, my eyes are easily tired, I am afraid of seeing light, and I love tears.

4. Unexplained migraine, dizziness and palpitation often occur, and sometimes I feel numb in my limbs.

In fact, these symptoms are caused by problems with your cervical spine. The cervical vertebra itself has normal physiological curvature. If the cervical vertebra is compressed for a long time, once the physiological curvature becomes straight or reversed, it will lead to dysphagia, abdominal distension and constipation, decreased vision, even blindness, stroke, Alzheimer's disease and even paralysis.

Everyone must pay more attention to their cervical vertebrae!

In order to protect our cervical spine and maintain its normal physiological curvature, we can do the following:

First, we should pay attention to the combination of static and dynamic. After work or seeing things, you should stand up and exercise your limbs and cervical vertebrae every hour to eliminate the fatigue of neck muscles and ligaments and prevent strain.

Second, protect your neck. Recently, the weather has been hot and cold. If you take off your cotton-padded coat too early and expose your neck, it will not only aggravate the pain of cervical vertebra, but also easily catch a cold.

Third, change a healthy pillow that suits you. In fact, most cervical spondylosis, the culprit is the pillow at home. Improper pillows are not only prone to insomnia and poor sleep, but also particularly harmful to cervical health! When sleeping, the pillow must completely support the cervical spine, so that the cervical muscle joints will be completely relaxed. If the cervical spine is empty, it is easy to make the muscles and joints behind the cervical spine tense for a long time, causing muscle spasm or joint dislocation, causing pain!

Therefore, if the pillow can't sleep well and can't adapt to the physiological curvature of its cervical spine, a bunch of problems will come to you. The pillow is too high and too low, too soft and too hard, otherwise it will cause muscle injury, ligament strain, pain, spasm and even cervical spondylosis!

Actually, the way to choose a pillow is very simple. The height of the pillow, when lying on your back, is your own punch; When lying on your side, the height of the pillow is the height of one punch plus the thickness of one palm. The hardness should be soft and moderate, and it can rebound naturally, and it is not easy to sag and deform.

In addition, there is a simpler way to use it, which is to add silkworm excrement and cassia seed to the pillow. Silkworm excrement and cassia seed can be effectively massaged to our neck, and it will be piled up to a height suitable for cervical pillow. When the filler is taken out, the pillow can be adjusted to the most suitable height at any time.

Silkworm dung is the dry dung of silkworm, which is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. It has the effects of expelling pathogenic wind and removing dampness, regulating stomach, resolving turbidity, promoting blood circulation, relieving pain, clearing away heat and toxic materials, calming the nerves and refreshing the brain. Putting silkworm excrement into pillow can treat neurasthenia, insomnia, hypertension, rheumatism, joint pain, cervical vertebra, scapulohumeral periarthritis and so on. Long-term use of meridians and acupoints that can continuously act on the head and neck is helpful to dredge the whole body meridians, smooth qi and blood, and calm the viscera.

The function of cassia seed pillow mainly has three aspects:

1. Cassia seed pillow can massage the brain, heart, cardiovascular system, cervical vertebra and other parts, make the meridians unblocked, promote blood circulation, reduce blood lipid and blood pressure, thus improving visceral function.

2. The seeds of Cassia seed are hard and can massage the acupoints of the head and neck, so it has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on headache, dizziness, insomnia, cerebral arteriosclerosis and cervical spondylosis caused by hyperactivity of liver yang.

3, the temperature of the pillow is lower than the temperature of the head, which helps to sleep. Cassia seed is slightly cold, and its unique coolness is particularly comfortable to use, especially in line with the basic theory of physiotherapy of "cooling head and warming feet" in traditional Chinese medicine.

If you do it yourself, you must be careful not to buy inferior silkworm excrement and cassia seed. It is recommended to use the first-class silkworm excrement of 1 year. 1 year-old silkworm excrement particles are only the size of embroidery needles, which are not fragile and have better health care effect. If the quality of silkworm excrement is poor, not only can you not sleep well, but it is also easy to mold and breed germs, causing diseases. In addition, it is best to make it in the form of zipper, which is convenient to disassemble, wash and take out the filler at any time.

The golden combination of round pillow and flat pillow recommends silkworm excrement cassia pillow! The round pillow is filled with high-quality silkworm excrement, with moderate hardness and perfect fit to the radian of neck and waist. It is suitable for correcting traction in a short time and improving the physiological curve of cervical and lumbar deformity. The flat pillow is filled with cassia seed, which is soft and comfortable, suitable for long-term rest, plays a long-term massage role on the head, and can unconsciously promote blood circulation and protect blood vessels in the brain. Moreover, the golden combination of round pillow and flat pillow can be used in combination or disassembled. Silkworm eggs are purchased directly from silkworm farmers. After repeated cleaning, drying and ultraviolet disinfection, it is clean and carefully selected, with dark green texture, excellent quality and cleanliness. When sleeping, the round pillow can be detached and used to pad below the waist, which plays a good supporting role for the waist, improves the deformed waist curve, promotes blood circulation and makes the waist healthier and healthier. The pillowcase is made of pure cotton coarse cloth, with soft texture, excellent hand feeling, good air permeability, no static reaction and durability. Old coarse cloth also has the advantages of warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for middle-aged and elderly people.

I learned how to choose a pillow that suits me. I hope everyone can stay healthy during their sleep!
