Medicinal pillow therapy is an external treatment method in which the medicine is sorted, processed or prepared, and then put into the pillow core, or directly made into a thin medicine bag and placed on an ordinary pillow, and used as a pillow while sleeping. It is a very simple method that is very popular among patients with cervical spondylosis.

There are three main types of medicinal pillows

One is the cloth medicine pillow: the medicine is wrapped with cotton cloth or gauze and sewn. It is the most commonly used method.

The second is a thin medicine bag: put the medicine in a bag made of cloth or towel and place it on an ordinary pillow.

The third is a capsule-type medicine pillow: the medicine is placed in a plastic or capsule bag.

How to make a medicinal pillow:

1. Flower and leaf medicines must be fully dried in the sun and rubbed into small pieces; rhizome, woody, and vine medicines must be fully dried in the sun or baked and ground into coarse powder before use; mineral and keratin medicines must be broken into rice-like pieces or processed into powder before use; seed medicines must be dusted or washed and dried before use; aromatic medicines containing volatile oils generally do not need to be processed and can be directly mixed into other medicine powders for effect.

2. The cloth used for the medicine pillow should be made of loose, soft, thin and breathable cotton or gauze to facilitate the volatilization of the medicine. Do not use chemical fiber, nylon and other fabrics.

3. A piece of plastic cloth can be placed at the bottom of the medicine pillow to prevent leakage.

4. Generally, the length of a medicinal pillow is 60 to 90 cm, and the width is 20 to 35 cm. The size can also be customized according to your needs.
