Being at your best each day starts with the night before: having restful, uninterrupted sleep for body and mind restoration. Needless to say, investing in a mattress, comforter and ultimately, a pillow that can offer the best comfort and support for your body go a long way.
With an endless variety of pillows out there, how do you choose a pillow that’s right for you?
Selecting The Right Pillow
Knowing how to choose the right pillow is important to avoid waking up with neck pain, shoulder tension and headache. When selecting a pillow, a good rule of thumb is to fall back to your dominant sleep position. You’ll want a pillow that can keep your head, neck and spine in neutral alignment while providing support to the natural curvature of your spine. To see if your spine is in neutral alignment, make sure your ears are in line with your shoulders, and your chin is in line with your sternum.
Each sleeping position requires a different type of pillow to maintain a healthy posture. If you’re a hybrid sleeper (i.e side, back and stomach) or really unsure of how to choose the right pillow for your sleeping habits, this is where Getha’s 3D Auto Natural Latex Pillow comes into the picture.
Why Choose Getha’s 3D Auto Natural Latex Pillow?
3 Way Use for Side, Stomach & Back Sleepers
This multi-functional pillow with medium-firm density can be used in three ways to suit each sleep position. Whether you’re a side, stomach or back sleeper (or a combination of all three!), you can say goodbye to sleepless nights with Getha’s 3D Auto Natural Latex Pillow! There are two different heights on each end, with the higher loft giving that extra height to ensure sufficient neck support for side sleepers, while the lower loft is mainly designed for back sleepers. Inspired by our Baby Dimple Latex Pillow, the lower loft includes a centre pocket design to support the sleepy heads of back sleepers.
Hand Sliders to Relieve Arm Numbness
Resting on your stomach for a while can be relaxing — until your arms begin to feel numb in that position! The pillow comes with an ergonomic hand slider design to relieve that “pins-and-needles” sensation. Unlike placing your hands underneath regular weighty pillows, your hands won’t feel “crushed” as our pillow is lightweight with an innovative design to let your hands comfortably slide right in on both sides.
3 Types of Fabric Each With Its Own Unique Function
3 Way Stretch Fabric: Made of cotton in a combed structure, this 3-way combed cotton stretch fabric is a softer version of regular cotton, which is derived from treated cotton fibres before they are spun into yarns. Because combed cotton requires more work to achieve higher quality, tougher fabric, it’s usually more expensive than regular cotton. Not only are they stronger and durable, but they are also soft on the skin and moisture-absorbent!
Centre Pocket Fabric: Wondering what those cute little circles are in the middle? The centre pocket fabric is a knitted fabric that is breathable and cooling — definitely necessary features to look out for in a pillow to bring down Malaysia’s tropical heat!
Teddy Fabric: Ahh… that soft, comforting feel in a teddy bear’s fur. We miss them too, which is why we include the “teddy fabric” at the back of the pillow specifically for stomach sleepers.
Apart from casual stomach sleepers, this childhood texture also provides calming relief and comfort for patients who experience respiratory distress. As they need to be in a prone position for overall better breathing[1], touching a soft, smooth and fluffy texture would make proning a lot less stressful.
For an even softer pillow, we highly recommend taking a look at our 2 Zone Latex Pillows.
Made From 100% Natural Latex for Your Sleep
A pillow that’s made from all-natural latex is typically soft yet provides adequate support for your head, neck and shoulders when sleeping. Just like your mattress, your pillow needs to accommodate your natural body shape so that your head won’t sink uncomfortably into the bed.
The Most Cooling and Breathable Pillow Ever
Since the pillow is made of natural latex, you can rest assure that it doesn’t come with an unpleasant odour, which is commonly found in synthetic latex. Also, we have included a pin-hole ventilation design to reduce the retention of body heat, moisture and odour, while increasing the airflow for you to have a cooler, drier surface to sleep on. Imagine having such a pillow that’s suitable for Malaysia’s hot and humid climate!
Toxic-Free For Peace of Mind
Getha’s latex foams have undergone over 2,000 tests on hazardous emissions and components to ensure that our natural latex bedding products do not contain harmful, toxic substances such as Pentachlorophenol, Carbon Disulfide, Nitrosamines and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Certified by world-renowned eco-INSTITUT, you can use our toxic-free latex foam bedding with total peace of mind.
Go Green With Sustainable Latex Given by Mother Nature
Natural latex is perhaps the most eco-friendly bedding material in the world. During a Soil Burial Test to determine the biodegradability of natural latex foam, research has shown that it approximately takes around 1 or 2 years for natural latex foams to be fully biodegraded[2]. This is good news for Mother Nature and for us!
Latex is also a natural, renewable material derived from the rubber tree. Since the trees are not cut down during harvesting, their production is not only sustainable but also reduces carbon emissions from the atmosphere.
Naturally Resistant to Allergens
If you have allergies, this 100% natural latex pillow is for you! Pure natural latex has anti-microbial properties and is dust mite resistant. It’s crucial to pay attention to what bedding material you’re sleeping on as bacteria, mould and mildew can trigger allergic reactions including asthma and respiratory disorders.
Built to Last & Overall Great Value for Money
Looking for ways to stretch your pillow budget? Getha’s 3D Auto Natural Latex Pillow fits the bill nicely. Apart from it being a multi-functional pillow, it can also demonstrate years of durable prowess to ensure that every cent you’ve spent on is worth it.
The reason why latex foam can outlasts most bedding materials is due to the fact that it has not been exposed to chemicals and other compounds that can break down the materials over time. Unlike synthetic and blended latex, you don’t have to worry about replacing your pure natural latex pillow any time soon.
