If you wake up in the morning with a stiff neck or sore shoulders, there's a good chance your pillow isn't ideal. Fortunately, Mediflow offers an innovative solution: water pillows featuring Waterbase‑technology™, which adapt to your body's contours to relieve neck pain and to improve sleep quality. In this blog, you'll learn why these pillows are medically proven and what options are available in the Mediflow range.
Clinical evidence & how it works
- In a clinical study conducted by Johns Hopkins University involving 46 participants with neck pain, the Mediflow Water Pillow proved to be significantly more effective than both standard pillows and rolled-up pillows. Users experienced less pain upon waking, improved sleep quality, and higher overall satisfaction.
- According to Mediflow, the pillow is recommended worldwide by more than 10,000 healthcare professionals—including chiropractors and physical therapists—as an effective solution for neck pain.
- The Waterbase™-technology provides continuous individualized support: water is incompressible, moves with your head and neck, and adapts to your sleeping position—ideal for those who change positions frequently during the night.
