Using a towel roll is actually a great idea for a pillow. Especially when you experiencing neck pain and your current pillow is not working.
Making a towel roll at home is very easy:
You can change the thickness of the towel by just using a thin towel or a thick towel. Also, you want to make sure the towel fits YOUR neck. Alternate and change the thickness so that your head is not being pushed forward. You want to keep a neutral neck position.
This towel roll can be used two ways:
- For sleeping
- for neck traction and stretching
A towel roll can help you with many neck issues that one is dealing with such as:
- disc herniation or a disc bulge
- military neck or loss of neck curve
- stiff neck
- loss of range of motion
- whiplash
- numbness and tingling in the hands and arms
