Memory foam pillows can help with your pain in the neck.

Originally designed by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to ease the pressure of G-Force on its astronauts, memory foam was originally thought to be too expensive for the public. The material known as memory foam, or visco-elastic polyurethane foam, is made predominantly from polyuretherane, with a few added chemicals to add to its viscosity, thereby increasing the density of the foam. Depending on the overall density of the material and the added chemicals used, the foam can be firmer is cooler in environments and softer in warm temperatures.

The foam gains its ability to mold to peoples necks and bodies when it is a higher density foam, this molding is due to the heat from the individuals body temperature, all of this can happen within minutes. Pressure from the body on a pressure-sensitive lower density foam will allow the molded shape to be taken even quicker than the later mentioned higher density foam. The memory foam pillow will be more dense and heavy than a regular pillow but will provide much more support. The cost will also be more than a regular down pillow, but will last much longer. Indentation Force Deflection (IDF) rating measures the amount of force, in pounds, required to indent a 50" disc by 1". Commonly known as IFD at 25% compression. However these memory foams are very pressure sensitive and can change their firmness with temperature (cold = firm, warm = soft).

Who is it for?

People suffering from long term pain or postural problems will find a memory foam mattress helpful while individuals who have chronic cervical neck soreness find a memory foam pillow serves them well too. The density of the product also allows the pillow to retain heat which is also helpful for pain sufferers.  If you are suffering from neck problems and are feeling the pain once you wake up, maybe it is time to try a memory foam pillow. It may cost a few pennies more, but in the long run, it will be worth it, after all no one wants to live with a pain in the neck!
