[0001] Health pillow for attitude correction [0002]

The present invention relates to a body-type orthopedic health pillow. More specifically, the present invention can calibrate a user's cervical vertebrae irrespective of a lying position, correct the thoracic spine with a cervical vertebra, The present invention relates to a body-type orthopedic pillow capable of providing an optimal sleeping effect by allowing a shoulder portion to maintain a more comfortable posture without being rigid.

Modern people such as students and workers have been studying books for many hours or sitting in front of computers. It is very difficult to maintain proper attitude, so that the balance of the body is collapsed due to the maintenance of wrong attitude for a long time. On the other hand, Since the health maintenance activities such as exercise are inevitably scarce, it is becoming common for the modern people to develop the dullness and bending phenomenon which cause pain such as neck, shoulder, back and back.

Especially, in recent years, with the remarkable development of information and communication technology and the spread of smart phones, many people have used the smartphone to play the Internet or play games regardless of time and place. When using the smartphone, The back of the body is forced to bend, and this type of imbalance is becoming more and more serious due to repeated misfits.

In order to prevent and correct abnormal body types such as diarrhea and bending that are caused by wrong living habits, it is necessary to maintain proper living posture along with proper exercise regularly. In general, It takes about 9 hours to sleep, and about one-third of daily life becomes sleeping time. In particular, the attitude while taking sleep is inevitably important, and therefore, the sleeping pillow And the ability of the user to take a good sleep while maintaining a good posture will have a significant effect on health promotion.

In view of this, various pillows have been disclosed to provide posture correction effects in consideration of the health of the user.
