the problem with solid latex pillows
| Okay, here is why I think a lot of people have problems with them. Because of the bounce back (push back) feature of latex, it is extremely difficult to get the exact softness/loft combination to align your head properly with your back. With the two solid latex pillows I've tried so far, one held my head slightly too high and was not soft enough for me and the other let me go to low. Its softness felt great (didn't push back on my jaw too hard) but the position in which my head was held was not right. Last night, I tried placing a folded towel under the soft one (LI Rejuvenite pillow) and it placed my head in the perfect position while maintaining the softness. This lack of adjustability is why some have tried the granulated latex pillows, but some say that the granules tend to disperse in the night. Maybe what we need is a "FloPillow" system, where you can try various thin layers of latex of different firmness? |
