Frequently Asked Questions

The materials used in a pillow are one of the key factors that determine your sleep quality. The material inside should not trigger your allergies or asthma. The size of the pillow also matters — you can choose based on the dimensions of your bed and pillowcases.

Just as with mattress selection, your sleeping position is important when choosing a pillow. Whether you sleep on your side, on your back, or on your stomach makes a difference. For side sleepers, pillows that fill the shoulder gap are recommended. For back sleepers, neck-supportive pillows are ideal. The pillow should also be compatible with your mattress. Your preference for a high or low pillow matters as well. If you experience issues such as sweating, acid reflux, or neck flattening, you should pay extra attention to your pillow choice.

We should think of the mattress and pillow as a whole. We know that the spinal curve runs from the neck all the way down to the tailbone. While lying down, we keep the part of the spine in the back region straight. We must also ensure that the neck region follows the same straight alignment for health reasons. If this is not achieved, waking up with neck pain is an inevitable outcome.

Using the wrong pillow can lead to pain throughout the day, fatigue, an unrested body, snoring, neck stiffness, and even problems extending to the inner ear.

Among WellMatt's pillow options, we offer a variety of models made from different materials, each designed to serve different purposes. Our pillow range includes:

  • Natural block latex pillows
  • Granulated wool or cotton pillows
  • Visco (memory foam) pillows

Each option is crafted to support your specific sleep needs and preferences.

Using an orthopedic pillow offers many important benefits:

  • Reduces neck pain: An orthopedic pillow properly supports the neck, reducing muscle tension and helping to relieve pain.
  • Supports back health: Correct alignment of the head and neck helps reduce back pain.
  • Improves sleep quality: Proper support leads to more comfortable sleep, which in turn improves overall health and mood.
  • Helps with snoring and sleep apnea: Keeping the head in the correct position can help keep the airway open, thereby reducing snoring and sleep apnea issues.
  • Improves blood circulation: The pillow evenly distributes pressure between the head and neck, promoting better blood circulation and helping muscles relax.

The lifespan of orthopedic pillows generally ranges between 2 and 3 years. However, the way the pillow is used, the quality of the materials, and regular maintenance can all affect its longevity. When a pillow loses its shape, becomes overly compressed, or no longer properly supports the head and neck, it should be replaced with a new one.
