How does a memory foam pillow work?

First of all, memory foam is a type of polyurethane foam that has been made viscous and elastic by adding chemicals. As a result, it can slowly contour to your body when pressure is applied, and then slowly regain its shape after pressure is removed.

Is memory foam really better than regular pillows?

The shape of a memory foam pillow is great for contouring the body. As a result, they will evenly distribute your weight and relieve pressure on your head and neck. Memory foam pillows can help relieve back or neck pain. Motion is easily absorbed by memory foam pillows.

Are memory foam pillows hard or soft?

A firm pillow provides consistent support and improves spinal alignment, making it ideal for side and back sleepers. In contrast, a soft pillow conforms to the shape of the head and neck, providing cushioning and moldability. For stomach sleepers who need neck support, soft pillows are best.

In addition to polyurethane, memory foam contains chemicals that increase its viscosity and density. Low-resilience polyurethane foam (LRPu) is also known as viscoelastic polyurethane foam. Open foam bubbles create a matrix through which air can move, providing effective relief and improving sleep.
