Good night''s sleep down to ''perfect pillow''

A range of pillow types have been addressed by a health and wellbeing website in order to provide information to those unsure of which may be perfect for them.

It was noted that three things were important - sleeping position in bed, texture and shoulder breadth - and all needed to be addressed when choosing the material.

Speaking to the Reader''s Digest of Australia, Dr Simon Floreani of the country''s Chiropractors'' Association said: "At the end of the day, it doesn''t matter what the experts suggest – you are going to be the one lying on it.

"Keep trying different types until you find one you are completely happy with."

Polyester was noted as a cheap and easy option that provided "medium support at best", with latex and memory foam praised for their longevity and dust mite-resistance - providing a person wants to invest.

Australia''s Choice.com also offered a buying guide for pillows, noting that memory foam and latex could also be moulded into any shape the user desired.
