Mattresses. The surface quality of rest is key in preventing back pain.
Back pain is the most common disease in industrialized countries and one of the most common health problems in primary care physician. All have at one time or another in their lives, 80% of the population and are the leading cause of absenteeism. These are data from the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine (semFYC) and Kovacs Foundation. The latter focused on promoting scientific research in healthcare, argues further that the cost generated by back pain account for approximately 2% of the country’s GDP. He adds that the available data show that the cost increases each year, as well as the frequency of these conditions.

Although recent studies suggest that the causes are explained by a neurological mechanism that involves activation of nerves that transmit pain, the origin of the mechanism is very difficult to detect. Therefore, back pain is usually attributed to contracture or muscle overload.

The bed, a risk factor.
Risk factors are in certain social and personal habits. Thus, from the semFYC explains that a sedentary lifestyle and lack of healthy posture at work, home or sports can help increase the incidence of such diseases. Kovacs Foundation, meanwhile, promoted a large epidemiological study which showed that the factor associated with increased risk, both among adolescents and among their parents, was to feel discomfort in bed. Therefore, it was considered necessary to examine the influence of specific characteristics of the sleep surface.

Firmness, adaptability and ergonomics are the qualities that should provide a cushion, as evidenced from Pikolin. The new catalog is based firm specializing in these three premises to offer different technologies that aim to ensure more adequate rest each person. Thus, the technology of Pikolin EuroTop makes their mattresses are one of the most demanded products.

Moreover, it is noteworthy that most back pain is successfully treated with medications or other nonsurgical treatments. Surgery is indicated only in a small number of cases. Note that, in accounting sometimes simply changing the mattress, especially if you have more than eight years, has immediate benefits on potential backaches.

Textile decoration. The filling Nordic has been a boom in the sector.
Located sales period, you may find attractive discounts and interesting promotions that invite consumers to buy quality products at incredible prices. So this might be a good time to renew the bedding and give it another go to the bedroom. The rest of the market provides for a wide range of styles for the bed is more than just a functional element and become an essential part of home decoration.

In this sense, the Nordic filler has been a boom in the sector. Fulfills the same function as the blanket and bedspread savanna, but in one piece, which makes the coat on the bed is much lighter and bedroom decor, much more versatile, as just changing the sleeve , will completely transform your look.

The choice of filler Nordic is important and personal, and to consider the tastes to bedtime and environmental conditions, as well as the budget that counts, because there are big differences in price between the quality duvet filling and those that are not.

Types of comforters
The first and major difference is found between the synthetic and natural comforters. For the former, Pikolin Home has a wide range of duvet filling fiber and polyester microfiber in a variety of weights and even mite treatments, perfectly covering the demand of its customers.

For the filling inside, there are many types of polyester fiber. In Pikolin Home, we have opted for the high quality, hollow silicone with high insulation and very good recovery. For outdoor fabrics, the current trend is to use microfiber napped with very soft, which provides lightweight to the garment without losing the insulating properties.

With respect to natural duvets, distinguish between feather and goose down or duck. The latter is obtained from the neck and chest of birds, provides greater volume with less weight and has more thermoregulatory capacity, so that the higher the percentage of down, best quality of Nordic filling. Furthermore, the touch down is more pleasant and silky than the pen, which is obtained from other parts of the animal, since this has an elongated central part more rigid. As for the type of bird, geese or geese are down more thermal capacity than ducks. This material should be subject to rigorous controls to prevent the proliferation of bacteria.

When buying a quilt of these features, make sure that the filling down Nordic treatment must have ‘downproof’ to prevent the inside can get out of the tissue.

Recently being incorporated to sets duvets incorporating synthetic microfiber fabrics that bring lightness mainly with natural fillings of down, which is hard to match thermoregulatory capacity for synthetic fibers.
