Have you heard of the term Dutch Wife? It is defined as a long body-length pillow that can be held or wrapped around one's body while sleeping. Back in history, it was said that it was a body pillow given to the Dutch men, to keep them warm in bed, while they are away at battle. There are various versions of the origins of the Dutch wife, but today, it is more commonly known as a bolster.
The use of bolsters dates back to ancient India and Egypt, where they were used to support and cushion the body during meditation and yoga postures. In the East, bolsters were traditionally filled with cotton, wool, or buckwheat hulls. In the West, foam and polyester have become popular fillings for bolsters. Bolsters are widely used in yoga and massage therapy, as well as for comfort in bed. They are also used in physical therapy to help patients with stretching exercises, provide lumbar support, and provide added support and comfort during pregnancy.
The signature Getha 100% Latex Lux Bolster is the perfect choice for those looking for a comfortable and healthy sleep experience. The Getha Lux Bolster, formerly known as GETHA 100% Natural Latex Body Pillow, has undergone recent upgrades to give you a better sleep experience. The newly upgraded version has an extra breathable pin hole design that allows for cooling and proper ventilation. The Teddy fabric is designed to provide a comfortable and supportive sleeping surface, while also being breathable and durable. No more waking up in the middle of the night with a warm, sweaty feeling! Plus, the soft and plush Teddy Fabric will make you feel like you're cuddling your favourite teddy bear!
Using a bolster is a great way to add extra comfort and support to your sleep. It can be used to provide extra support to your neck and spine, which can help reduce pain and discomfort. It can also help to keep your body in alignment while you sleep, which can help improve your overall sleep quality.
The Getha Lux Bolster is an excellent choice for side-sleeping adults. The bolster can help to improve spinal alignment by providing support to the spine and helping to keep it in a neutral position. This can help to reduce pain and discomfort in the back and neck, as well as improve posture. The bolster can also help to reduce pressure on the spine, which can help to reduce inflammation and improve overall spinal health. Additionally, the bolster can help to reduce stiffness in the back and improve flexibility. It is also placed between the knees for better spinal alignment, especially helpful for side sleepers.
The Getha Lux Bolster is made from 100% Natural latex, which makes it hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant, a great choice for those with allergies or sensitivities. The Lux Bolster is also designed to be durable and long lasting, so hug it whichever way you like!
