<p>This invention relates to a pillow (1) and a mattress (6) the anatomical shape and rigidity of which help to combat pathological lordosis of the forward convex curvature particular to the cervical region and spondylitis in the dorsal region of the vertical column. The pillow (1) consists of two rounded lobes (2) and (3) with an anatomical shape for resting the head when the body is lying down in an antero-posterior position. The mattress is rectangular in shape and its anatomical shape and rigidity allow for perfect posture of the vertebral column in a dorsal or lateral recumbent position, thus guaranteeing decompression of the vertebral discs, which is an essential factor for combating spondylitis. Both are essentially made of a latex-type polyurethane foam the rigidity of which is designed not to affect or alter the pressure of mainly the cervical and dorsal blood vessels, and inside they contain a suitable number of clay discs (4) in pre-defined positions, which are connected to the outside by means of three vertical holes (5). These discs create absorbent and healing conditions owing to the properties of the clay. <IMAGE></p> |
