Bath pillows: features and variety of models

Taking a bath is a relaxing and soothing experience. The use of a special pillow can make it even more pleasant and comfortable. Accessories differ in shape, material, fastening method, color design and other characteristics. Let's take a closer look at what models modern manufacturers offer us, and what options you should pay attention to.

Bath pillows are different from regular sleep pillows.

They have some peculiarities.

• There are three types of bath pillows in specialized stores. The most popular, easy-to-use and affordable inflatable products. In second place are gel models. They are more expensive but have orthopedic properties. The top three are closed by PVC accessories.

• Many products are equipped with suction cups for a strong and secure attachment. The suction cups are made of non-slip material, which allows the pillow to be positioned even in a damp bath. Products are attached to any surface (metal, plastic, wood, tiles).
• Modern models are equipped with a function to select the level of softness. The buyer only needs to choose the optimal pressure indicator. This functionality is especially useful for people with spinal diseases.
• The hypoallergenic nature of the materials ensures the safety of using the products. The pillows are harmless, suitable for children and people prone to allergies.

Based on the listed features, a number of advantages of bath pillows can be distinguished.

• The variety of models is amazing. Each connoisseur of comfort can find the best option in a wide range.
• Some models are equipped with gadgets (music players, massagers). Such additions make the usual bathing experience as comfortable as possible.
• A wide range of colors allows you to choose a product that matches the interior of the bathroom, or to make a choice based on personal preferences.

• The elasticity and softness of the accessories provide maximum comfort for the head, neck and back. The tension in the cervical spine decreases, the shoulders relax, and blood circulation improves.
• The products are easy to clean. After use, it is enough to wash the pillow with soap and dry.
• The compact size allows you to take the accessory with you on any trip.
• Repairability extends the life of the accessories. Inflatable products are repaired using the same method as mattresses (the puncture site is sealed).
• The pillows can be used by people with musculoskeletal disorders. Chair-shaped models provide a comfortable knee position and reduce stress on the spine.

The range of contemporary brands includes a variety of bath products. Let's consider the most popular options.

Such models are equipped with suction cups to securely hold the pillow on the surface. The accessory is quickly and conveniently fixed in the desired place and does not move during water procedures. Moreover, there is a string on each suction cup, with the help of which the product is detached without damage.

These pillows are inflated like a swimming ring. It should be borne in mind that the product cannot be inflated to the end, the pillow should not be too elastic.

These pillows are similar to those used on long commutes.They are not attached to the bathtub, but simply worn around the neck.

Usually these are inflatable cushions equipped with suction cups. The most popular forms of such accessories are "shell", "pillow-lips" and others.

A massager or a player (or all at once) can be built into such products. The cost of such models is much higher.

These accessories are suitable for children of all ages, starting from infancy. One unsuccessful bathing can discourage a child from taking water procedures for a long time. Therefore, in order to create comfortable conditions for the baby, parents often use special devices.

Baby bathing pillows are made of special materials, come with removable, water-repellent pillowcases that are easy to clean and dry quickly. The main purpose of the pillow is to support the baby's head.

The first model is more affordable. A cotton pillowcase with a zipper is put on a polystyrene foam base. The material is pleasant to the touch, does not cause allergies and unpleasant tactile sensations. However, there are also disadvantages. The collar does not hold the child well in the water, and a very active and agile baby can even "slide" off the pillow. Also, the product itself dries for a long time due to the foam used. It cannot be called durable either.

The body pillow has a completely different principle of use. With the help of suction cups, it is attached to the bottom of the bath. Then the child is laid on it. Thanks to the shape of the product, the baby's head remains above the water. Accessories are made of polypropylene filled with synthetic fibers that resemble cotton. From above, the models are covered with natural materials. Among the disadvantages are the high cost and the possibility of displacement of the baby's body in the conditions of moving water.

There are several rules, adhering to which, you can extend the life of the water accessory.

• Before use, the product must be ventilated in a room protected from sunlight. It should also be washed with soap and running water.
• The pillows should only be used for their intended purpose. You should not take them on vacation to warm regions and leave them in the sun.
• After water procedures, the pillow is washed and dried thoroughly. This will help prevent mold from growing on it.
