Abstract

Elastic plastic material head pillow comprises flat base and flexible bolster along the front longitudinal pillow edge, whose top surface repeats the anatomical shape of the thoracocervical area, formed as a flexible tongue top and bottom surfaces arranged in parallel position in the middle section with thickness from 4 to 6 cm and two times lesser than the tongue length. The ration of thicknesses of tongue middle section, height on the pillow front edge and pillow base length is 1:3:7, respectively. The tongue top surface gradually descents at angle ranging from 35.degree. to 45.degree. to the pillow base plane translating into the top plane thereof forming the recess along pillow transversal axis, with ascending surface embodied in counterweight form, providing optimal vertebral column physiological position, preserving natural sagittal plane curvatures, reducing head and neck soft tissues applied pressure, and improving head cavity venous drainage.
