Pillow’s features
Developed in collaboration with occupational physiotherapist Jenni Ahopelto, the adjustable Body pillow meets common challenges related to sleep ergonomics, by providing a new kind of sleeping comfort. The extra-long Familon Body position pillow provides particularly good support at night and is a suitable support pillow for sleepers of all ages and body types.
One pillow under your head may not always suffice as an optimal sleeping position, and many discover a wonderful, new feeling of weightlessness in sleeping positions supported by long body pillows.
The body pillow is suitable for allergy sufferers, and bears the Finnish allergy label® issued by the Finnish Allergy, Skin and Asthma Federation.
Pillow structure
The Familon Body pillow is filled with a total of 1,380g of polyester ball fibre. The pillow is divided into five compartments that hold the filling tightly in place, so the filling does not escape to one end of the pillow. Both ends of the body pillow feature a zipper for adjusting the pillow’s height. The cover is 100% cotton.
The size of the pillow supporting the whole body is 140x30x30 cm. At its highest point at the upper end, the Body pillow is approx. 30 cm high, whereas at the lower end, the pillow is approx. 20 cm high. The Body pillow, which enables the correct sleeping position, is ergonomically shaped in the longitudinal direction to give just the right support for your upper body, midriff, and legs.
The unique Familon Body pillow is ergonomically shaped, and is higher and plusher than the popular Ergo Selkä pillow.
On the Body full-body pillow, there is a fitted, white pillowcase (50x140 cm). The narrower end of the special-size pillowcase has a zipper for putting on the pillowcase. Pillowcases are also separately available for the Body pillow.
This is how it works
The elongated pillow supports a partial side position so that one leg of the sleeper is bent over the pillow and the other lies straight alongside it. The shaped top of the pillow supports the thoracic spine and upper limb via the chest, preventing harmful back rotation and strain on the shoulders. The lower part of the pillow comprehensively supports the legs from ankle to hip. Thus, the position is balanced in relation to the mattress and no pressure is applied to the nerves on the hip or ankle. The Body pillow can also be used behind the back to support the spine. This will take pressure off the shoulder and hip.
The Familon Body pillow is also suitable as a pregnancy pillow since, during late pregnancy, the long pillow helps expectant mothers with sleep and back problems by softly supporting the body and stomach. A well-supported side position prevents back pain and makes it easier to fall asleep.
Many people know the long body pillow as a ‘boyfriend pillow’; using it as a sleep buddy is a good way of improving sleep ergonomics, particularly if you are a side sleeper. This completely water-washable, soft, and extremely mouldable position pillow makes a versatile sleeping companion.
