Here are some tips to help you choose the most suitable one for you:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Supine position<\/strong>: \u2022 This is the most favourable position for resting.<br \/>\nIn this case, it is best to choose a <strong>pillow with a medium or medium-high support level<\/strong>, so that it provides the correct support for the neck while maintaining the natural curvature of the spine. For this position we recommend <strong>pillows with an anatomical or saponetta and Bodyform Care technology<\/strong> or, depending on your personal preference, you can also choose those <strong>in Respiro latex or Aquapure Gel Foam<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Link IGEA H14: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/igea-h14-2\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/igea-h14-2\/<\/a><br \/>\nLink SALUS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/salus\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/salus\/<\/a><br \/>\nLink SOFFIO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/soffio\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/soffio\/<\/a><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_1451195174-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_1451195174-min.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_1451195174-min-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_1451195174-min-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Side position<\/strong>: \u2022 is the most common.<br \/>\nIn this case the main function of the pillow must be to fill the space between the neck and shoulder. We therefore recommend the use of a saponetta pillow, because, by keeping the spine aligned, it significantly reduces possible morning discomfort, ensuring benefits especially for those who suffer from neck tension. It is therefore advisable to choose a <strong>pillow with a medium-high or high level of support<\/strong>. For this reason, the most suitable pillow is <strong>with Bodyform Soya &amp; Aloe technology, or Respiro latex<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Link ESTASI: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/estasi\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/estasi\/<\/a><br \/>\nLink DELICATO SOYA &amp; ALOE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/delicato-soya-aloe\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/delicato-soya-aloe\/<\/a><br \/>\nLink BREZZA: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/brezza\/\">https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/en\/prodotto\/brezza\/<\/a><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3904\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_653166973-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_653166973-min.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_653166973-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_653166973-min-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.somnium.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/shutterstock_653166973-min-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Prone position<\/strong>: it would be better to avoid this position, as it makes breathing more difficult and, in the long run, can cause various negative effects on your body.
