Our U-shaped Neck Pillow is filled with our airy, 3-dimensional buckwheat hulls OR with tiny, round, and smooth millet hulls. Both fillings are firm, but their texture feels distinctly different.
There is a constant shifting of the hull material as you move while air freely passes through the filling. This constant ventilation of hull pillows keeps them fluffy and fresh. The hulls will gently surround your neck/shoulder area and provide solid support as you lean back or lie down to relax. It is the unique shape of our Neck Pillow that makes it such a beneficial tool for relaxation and spinal alignment. The hull filling will retain its form and shape at all times for continued, solid neck support.
The zippered casing allows you to add or remove hulls, to make the Neck Pillow more pliable and adjust it for your personal preference. Some people like the Neck Pillow firm and full, others prefer it more pliable. Its particular design and shape allow for the pillow to hug your neck while supporting your head on all sides. You can relax your shoulder/neck muscles, turn freely with continued complete support (in your armchair or on the couch as you watch TV or rest).
Both inner casing and outer cover are made of 100% cotton. They are both zippered, so you can remove hulls for the occasional washing if necessary. Simply pour the hulls temporarily into a container or plastic bag and then put them back once the inner casing has completely dried.
We offer a range of herbs and essential oils to be placed inside the filling of your pillow. The following have been the most sought-after herbal mixes that have been chosen again and again by our customers:
Balsam Fir Tips
Green Tea with Lemon or Orange
