Who It Works For
PAPillow is a mainstream bed pillow appreciated by any person who prefers or is required, for medical reasons, to sleep on their side or stomach
Sleeping positions are referred to as:
- Supine – back
- Lateral – side
- Prone – stomach
CPAP Users
The PAPillow has been successfully used in patients wishing to sleep in the lateral or prone position and challenged by the nasal and full face interfaces that are required in the management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) patients with CPAP therapy.
Double Edge PAPillow or Mini Edge PAPillow may be used alone or placed on top of a regular bed pillow if further elevation is desired
Oral and Dental Appliance Users
The PAPillow design, features lateral support of the mandible and temple, prevents excessive pressure over the maxilla and anterior mandible which makes it suitable for patients wearing oral appliances and orthodontics without the potential buccal mucosal irritation from excessive pressure.
Snoring
PAPillow provides the ability to sleep prone or laterally, and rotate your head position towards the mattress, without compromising nasal or oral breathing further enabling normal breathing to occur and lessens the likelihood of snoring.
Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain sufferers
People who suffer with chronic pain often have great difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. PAPillow is a comfortable pillow found to offer support to promote restorative sleep.
Positional Sleep
You may have been asked to sleep in a particular position by your physician for a variety of reasons including post surgery recovery. You may have been asked to cease sleeping on your back. Old habits are hard to break but using PAPillow will provide comfort for lateral or prone sleeping. Since PAPillow was not designed for, nor is comfortable for sleeping in the supine position, PAPillow should help you break the habit with ease.
Pregnancy
Many women are asked to side sleep after the 13th week of pregnancy. PAPillow provides the lateral support needed to assure comfortable and restorative sleep. Often, women experience sleep apnea during pregnancy; therefore this pillow also assists and provides benefit from compromising nasal or oral breathing.
