Acid reflux affects many people at night, and the symptoms can be tough to deal with. They include chest pain, nausea, and even spouts of feeling suffocated. You may also experience a burning sensation in your throat from the stomach acid. One great solution would be for you to use a high-quality wedge pillow from the Foam King. This will keep your head elevated while alleviating symptoms. Find out about how the wedge pillow works below.
How Do Wedge Pillows Work?
Wedge pillows elevate the upper half of your body. Gravity is used to combat the symptoms associated with acid reflux, which happens when acid leaks out of the stomach. The versatile design of the pillow helps to support both shallow and steep support angles, and can provide back and leg support. If you choose the right wedge pillow, you may even find that they reduce the need for over-the-counter medication.
What to Look for in a Wedge Pillow?
If you are looking for the perfect wedge pillow, choose one that is made out of premium material, as the shape of the wedge will change over time. Cheaper materials will change shape too quickly, making it ineffective at treating your acid reflux. Something that has been CertiPUR-CA Certified is the best choice for safety, as it meets the latest emissions regulations. Ticking this box is crucial if you want something that’s going to last for years to come.
What If I Have Allergies?
At the Foam King, our foam is all hypoallergenic. Dust mites are not able to live in foam, making it a better option for people prone to allergies or like things clean. In addition, the foam lives in a zippered cover that can be removed and washed. If you're still concerned, put your coverless pillow inside a garbage bag and vacuum the air out. Once you've cleared the old air out, remove the vacuum and let fresh air fill your pillow. It'll feel brand new!
