Head-Cradling Ergonomic Pillows

The U2 Pillow's Pillow Design Reduces Tossing and Turning

— June 18, 2020 — Art & Design
The U2 Pillow boasts an ergonomic pillow design that's meant to reduce tossing and turning at night by comfortably and securely cradling the head and neck. The supportive Stop Tossing & Turning design applies the Pressure Principle in physics, which says that a larger area to touching the pillow will lead to a reduced amount of pressure on the body.

The pillow with a memory foam core is designed to support not just the head but the whole body. The pillow can be completely customized by users, as they can make adjustments to suit their desired amount of lift. Beyond having a form that cradles the head and neck to support better nights of rest, the pillow also includes ventilation holes and a cotton cover.
