Sacral Still Point Pressure Pillow from Kanuda  Does the dad need a posture reset? The “Kanuda Lumbar Nap” Sacral Still Point Pressure Pillow is a one-of-a-kind product that integrates physical therapy benefits into a pillow—ensuring proper neck alignment while sleeping on one side or the other. Its design mimics a physical therapy session at home by stimulating pressure points of the sacrum, stretching your lower back with its natural bending lumbar spine curvature. A few of the benefits of the Kanuda Lumbar Nap pillow include improvement of the craniosacral system function, tension relief in the lower back muscles, restoration of the spine’s natural lumbar curve to the correct posture and improvement in the range of motion in the hips. All the user needs to do is place the polyurethane foam pillow on the floor and lie down on their back so that the sacrum groove on the Kanuda Lumbar Nap is positioned directly underneath the user’s sacrum. For best results, it’s recommended to stay in this position for anywhere between 10-40 minutes daily. The South Korean company has been perfecting its product through ongoing research and development since 2005—helping to lead the way in customer satisfaction. Reportedly the first-ever pillow to incorporate physical therapy techniques to relieve neck pain and induce proper sleep positions, Kanuda helps keep your neck, spine and shoulders truly aligned in proper resting position.
