Engineering pillows to help people get a good night's sleep is at the heart of Core Products' mission. Instead of chasing trends (a memory foam pillow may not be right for everyone), we tailor each pillow design to fit one or more of the three stages of care identified in our TriCare Circle of Health and are recommended by health care professionals who treat neck pain and recommend pillows to help remedy it.
It is important to determine what the desired results will be, to: Accommodate, Correct or Maintain the patient's condition and stage of care. These are the principles on which Core Products' TriCare: Circle of Health Pillow Selection Guide is based.
We've created a color-coded system to help health professionals and their patients identify which Core pillows are suitable for the patient's stage of care. Accommodation and correction represent two stages of a three-stage system of care. The third stage, maintenance, fulfills a circle of health. The "circle" aspect of the TriCare system allows a person to enter at any stage.
ACCOMODATE
Relieves pain or discomfort by conforming to and stabilizing a new or existing injury or condition . Provides comfort, but does little to correct the condition. Typically for short-term use.
When a neck injury or condition is acute (serious or to an intense degree, like whiplash or a significant sprain or strain), the doctor's goal is to relieve a patient's pain and discomfort before beginning treatment. What's needed is to stabilize and accommodate the condition before moving forward. The same is true for other neck injuries or at the onset of many common problems which affect the head and neck. Displacement pillows work well at this stage because they conform to the condition and provide immediate comfort.
CORRECT
Helps correct the cause of pain, supports treatment to regain proper function.
At this stage, orthopedic pillows are often prescribed to assist in correct the diagnosed condition and to help the patient regain proper function. Allows tissue to heal functionally. Prepares for the maintenance stage. Corrective pillows can help alleviate headaches, neck muscle and joint strains, arthritis and whiplash discomfort and help restore proper nerve function. Supportive pillows are used in this stage of care.
MAINTAIN
Complements care to help prevent recurrence/progression. Pillows selected for the Maintain Stage should ensure continued good health by helping preserve the natural curvature of the neck and spine. For ideal maintenance, the pillow should provide maximum support and comfort. In fact, most people discover that once the normal curvature of the neck is restored, they crave the comfort of maximum support - the reason supportive pillows have grown more popular. Supportive pillows are used in this stage of care.
We hope Core's TriCare: Circle of Health Pillow Selection Guide has been helpful and will serve you well, whether you are a patient talking with your health professional...or vice versa. Here's to your health!
TESTIMONIAL
I have gone to Dr. White for several years now and find that he really relieves my spine pain. One of the best things I ever did was purchase an orthopedic pillow from him. I can sleep so much better and can tell it really helps my neck. I wouldn't live without it, it works wonders. -James
