A pillow is a sleeping tool. It is generally believed that pillows are fillers used by people for the comfort of sleep. Modern medical research believes that the human spine is a straight line from the front, but a curve with four physiological bends from the side. In order to protect the normal physiological curvature of the neck and maintain normal physiological activities during sleep, people must use pillows when sleeping. The development of pillows In this primitive era, people used stones or bales to lift their heads to sleep, which was probably the original pillow when they dug holes in the mountains. By the Warring States period, pillows had been very particular. 1957, a well-preserved lacquer wood bed in Zhang Baocun was unearthed from the Chu tomb in Changtaiguan, Xinyang, Henan. Predecessors have done a lot of research on pillows. Sima Guang, a famous historian in the Northern Song Dynasty, used a small log as a pillow. When he slept, he just moved his head and fell off the pillow. He woke up immediately. After waking up, he continued to study hard. He named this pillow "police pillow". In order to strengthen the body during sleep and achieve the purpose of treating diseases, the ancients also put medicines in pillows to treat diseases, which are called "medicine pillows". Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica said: "Tartary buckwheat skin, black bean skin, mung bean skin, cassia seed ... make pillows until they are old and bright." There are all kinds of pillows among the people, most of which aim at "clearing fire" and "removing heat". Now pillows are more and more widely used in medical care, such as "magnetic therapy pillow", which has certain curative effect on neurasthenia, insomnia, headache and tinnitus. A kind of "cervical pillow" is very popular in America and Hong Kong. Sleeping on this pillow can completely relax the muscles of the neck, shoulders and skull base and eliminate the fatigue of the day. At present, Japan has also developed a "fitness pillow", which can continuously release energy like an oscillator, promote human blood circulation and metabolism, and play a hypnotic role, so as to better play its role as a sleep tool. At present, pillow enterprises in Qingdao have launched the business of measuring and fixing pillows, providing customers with personalized and professional services of "measuring and fixing pillows" for five minutes. Because everyone's neck radian and height are different, tailoring healthy pillows with different radians may be the best choice to establish a healthy relationship between new pillows. After 2005, a new product combining music and pillow appeared. This kind of pillow first appeared not in shopping malls but on the battlefield. On June 5438+ 10, 2005, the first batch of special military materials-music pillows were sent to Danish peacekeeping forces in Iraq and Kosovo. These musical pillows will help to relieve the stress and nervousness of soldiers and make them have a full rest after their duty. The shape of the music pillow is the same as that of an ordinary pillow, but the content is much richer: a loudspeaker and an MP3 player are installed inside, and natural sounds such as light music, running water, birds and the like are stored in the MP3 hard disk, thus creating a moment of peace for peacekeepers in a turbulent place where the war is not over. Henrik, head of the psychology department of the Royal Danish Military Academy, said that the first batch of 10 sets of music pillows had been delivered to the army for trial use. "We hope these pillows can help soldiers who are in a state of high psychological tension to relax." The music pillow named "MusicCure" was developed by Danish composer and oboe player Niels Yeager, and used to treat psychological patients. Its remarkable curative effect has been confirmed in clinical trials in major hospitals in Denmark. Pingyao Liuhetai pillow is packed in Pingyao ancient city, a world cultural heritage, which contains profound Shanxi merchant culture and many folk treasures: unfathomable draft paper room, exquisite and elegant lacquerware, delicate and fragrant Pingyao beef and hundreds of refreshing and delicious snacks. . . . . There is also a unique, comfortable, healthy and amazing folk spectacle-Pingyao specialty Liuhe desk pillow. Liuhetai Pillow has several names. At first, it was called six-hole pillow, because there were holes in the pillow, and it was also called Confucius pillow. Because the outside looks like ancient coins, it is also called a coin pillow. Appeared in the banks that gradually entered its heyday in the Qing Dynasty, there were six holes on the pillow, all of which were connected. The six holes symbolize heaven, earth, east, south, west and north, implying the highest realm pursued by banks at that time:-mastery and integration. (The combination of the pillow and the ticket number undoubtedly shows that the pillow and the ticket number of Liuhetai are closely related, which is a symbol of status at that time. This is unique in the country. ) 1864, Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty went west to Pingyao, and after sleeping on Liuhe pillow, she felt novel and comfortable, so she was named "Tai". Since then, Liuhe Thai pillow has been handed down. Liuhetai pillow is unique in shape, moderate in hardness and adjustable in height. The holes are connected with each other, so that the ears, face and back of the head will not be pressed, and the best air permeability will be maintained, so that people will not feel depressed. Turning over while sleeping will massage the acupoints on the temples and neck, effectively promoting the blood flow in the head. Therefore, when people sleep with a pillow, they will feel comfortable and smooth, calm down and have beauty, thus falling asleep quickly. Wake up refreshed! Now, on the basis of traditional work, Liuhe Taizhen has developed a series of new products scientifically and reasonably. The pillow shape has expanded from the original six-hole pillow to ten-hole pillow, twelve-hole pillow, eighteen-hole pillow, thirty-six-hole pillow, baby pillow, gold ingot pillow, embroidered pillow and so on. And various shapes and pillow sizes have been added from the standard ergonomics, and various pillows can be customized according to customer requirements to meet the needs. The pillow core has also developed from a single buckwheat shell into a variety of Chinese herbal medicine components with health care and physical therapy functions. Fresh chrysanthemum pillow, pillow for invigorating stomach and strengthening spleen and silkworm excrement. Cassia seed, tea pillow, etc. And Chinese herbal medicine bags with different effects. The pillow fabric has also changed from the original high-grade velvet fabric to the latest green and environmentally-friendly high-grade colored cotton fabric. Today's Liuhetai pillow is not only a pillow that can really improve the quality of sleep, but also a folk art that can be played. It is not only a health care product that can be given to relatives and friends, but also a tourist souvenir with unique cultural connotation. Pingyao Liuhe pillow has become one of the irreplaceable characteristic products in Pingyao Shanxi merchants' cultural tourism products. With the rapid development of tourism in the ancient city, Liuhe table pillow will be more brilliant, so that more people and Pingyao people can enjoy it together! One third of a person's life is spent sleeping with a pillow, which has a vital impact on people's life, work and study. In real life, people don't know enough about the importance and knowledge of pillows, which leads to many misunderstandings in the choice of pillows and unreasonable usage habits. Over time, these bad habits will seriously affect people's quality of life and health, resulting in many symptoms such as head, neck, shoulders, back and internal organs. People of insight, from ancient doctors and magicians to modern medical experts and scholars, all think that sleeping pillows are extremely important, and have conducted in-depth research in many aspects, and have achieved quite rich research results. Therefore, it is very necessary for people who enter modern life to carry out a "pillow revolution". First, it is necessary to increase their understanding of pillows, and secondly, to correctly choose and use pillows that suit them. This can not only improve their sleep quality and ensure their working conditions, but also make their bodies healthier and more comfortable. China Pillow Network summarizes a good pillow as "three elements of a good pillow": a good pillow must have proper supporting force, and there are three basic elements to realize it: 1 basic structure for supporting the neck, 2 proper height and 3 good filling materials. Several Common Pillows This paragraph edits Buckwheat Pillows-Buckwheat Pillows are natural pillows for every reason. Traditional things are always handed down for a reason. Buckwheat has a tough and unbreakable diamond structure, and the buckwheat skin pillow can change its shape with the head moving left and right, making it very comfortable to sleep. The cleaning method is to bask in the sun regularly, but the disadvantage is poor plasticity, so it is difficult to create a perfect ergonomic shape. Kapok pillow-filled with pure natural pillow core material, kapok is a natural wild cellulose in the fruit of woody plant Panzhihua tree, which can dispel wind and remove dampness, promote blood circulation and relieve pain. The hollow degree of kapok fiber is as high as 86%, far exceeding that of man-made fiber and any other natural material by 25%-40%. The fiber industry knows that it is a textile material with ultra-high warmth retention, natural antibacterial, moth-proof and mildew-proof, and kapok fiber is ultra-short, ultra-fine and ultra-soft. Chemical fiber pillow-cheap but not practical, this is an ordinary pillow made of man-made fiber, and its advantage is that it is easy to clean. Because the chemical fiber material is airtight, it is easy to deform, block and lack elasticity after being used for a long time, and the pillow is uneven, especially the inferior chemical fiber pillows produced by some small manufacturers. Therefore, I suggest that when you buy pillows, you should try to choose well-known brands with good elasticity, and don't covet the cheap ones that are easy to deform and inferior. Latex pillow-in addition to good price, latex has good elasticity, is not easy to deform and has strong support. It is said that latex can change the head shape of children with developing bones, and there will be no allergens such as dust and fiber that cause respiratory allergies. Some latex pillows also have the functions of massage and promoting blood circulation. Latex pillow is a good pillow, but it is also expensive and not suitable for ordinary families. Feather pillow-easy to use but inconvenient to clean. A good feather pillow should choose big feathers, which are fluffy and can provide better support for the head and will not be deformed because of long-term use. Moreover, eiderdown has the advantages of light weight, air permeability and no mugginess. Feather pillow is a kind of pillow with good material, but its most prominent disadvantage is that cassia seed pillow is not easy to clean-raw cassia seed is used as a pillow for external use and packed in a cloth bag as a pillow. Cassia seed is slightly cold and slightly fragrant with grass. Sleeping with a pillow smells like sleeping in the green grass. Its hard seeds can also massage the head and neck points, so it has an auxiliary effect on headache, dizziness, insomnia, cerebral arteriosclerosis and cervical spondylosis caused by hyperactivity of liver yang. Cassia seed has many uses in natural physiotherapy, and is widely used in the fields of lowering blood pressure, relaxing bowels and losing weight. In addition, cassia seed has unique coolness, which is particularly comfortable to use in summer, especially in line with the basic physiotherapy theory of "cooling head and warming feet" in traditional Chinese medicine. Huang Wei natural pillow not only ensures the health care function, but also uses cassia seed ingredients and unique fiber fillers to make the pillow more comfortable and soft, and make the sleep more pleasant while keeping healthy. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the middle part of the chair was often enlarged in size and made into various styles, and the cut inclined plane was convenient for leaning when looking up. This part of the brain is called "pillow". What kind of pillow is good for sleeping? When the editor mentions pillows in this paragraph, people often think of idioms such as "sleeping with a high pillow" and "sleeping with a high pillow", and think it is appropriate to sleep with a high pillow. In fact, a high pillow is not good for people. A suitable pillow is good for relaxing the whole body, protecting the neck and brain, and promoting and improving sleep. Therefore, when choosing a pillow, we should pay attention to the following points: pillow height: modern research believes that the distance from the shoulder to the ipsilateral neck is appropriate. The height of the pillow is determined according to the physiological curve of the arrangement of seven cervical vertebrae in the human neck. Only by adapting to this physiological curve can the muscles, ligaments and joints of the shoulder and neck be relaxed. Too high or too low a pillow is harmful. High pillows hinder the blood circulation in the head and easily lead to cerebral ischemia, snoring and stiff neck, which is not what people often say. The low pillow makes the head hyperemia, which is easy to cause eyelid and facial edema. Especially when suffering from high blood pressure and heart disease, it is more beneficial to choose a suitable pillow. Length and width of pillow: the pillow should be a little longer, and the length of the pillow should be enough to turn over the position behind you. Adult pillows are generally 70cm-74cm. The pillow is not easy to be too wide, which will exceed the head and neck joints, and the muscles are easy to be nervous. 45 ~ 48 cm is appropriate. Soft and hard pillow: the pillow should be moderate in soft and hard, and slightly elastic. The pillow is too hard, and the relative pressure between the head and neck and the pillow increases, causing head discomfort; If the pillow is too soft, it is difficult to maintain the normal height, so that the head and neck are not supported and tired; If the pillow is too elastic, the head will be constantly affected by the external elasticity, which will easily lead to muscle fatigue and injury. So generally speaking, rice husk, buckwheat husk, kapok, feather flakes, foam rubber and so on. Used as pillow core, moderate hardness, conducive to sleep and health. Therefore, a good pillow that is conducive to sleep must have a good pillow core. When we pillow, the physiological curvature of our cervical spine should be completely consistent with the pillow, so as to better avoid stiff neck and better prevent cervical spondylosis! Therefore, when choosing a pillow, you must choose a pillow that suits you and a good pillow that suits your cervical spine!
