Our bolster pillow is more versatile than our other buckwheat pillows. A bolster pillow will provide comfort and support in many contexts:
Bed Pillow: The cylindrical shape of a bolster pillow is favored by many for use as a bed pillow. Its smaller dimensions relative to traditional bed pillows make it well-suited for back sleepers and those smaller in stature.
Orthopedic Pillow: Sometimes called a cervical pillow or a neck roll pillow, orthopedic pillows are often used in conjunction with other pillow types to correct uncomfortable or pain-causing body postures. Orthopedic pillows work well for head and neck support, but are also commonly used to elevate knees, ankles, or other parts of the body.
Travel Pillow: It’s hard to leave home without your favorite pillow, which probably doesn't fit in your already-full suitcase. Hullo bolster is considerably smaller than traditional bed pillows and includes a convenient carrying handle, so it’s easy to take along wherever your travels take you.
Yoga Bolster: Under your neck, knees or back, Hullo is great for use at the yoga studio and is easy to transport.
…and more: It's a comfortable pad for kneeling, and in Southeast Asian countries, bolsters are used for hugging while sleeping.
Popular throughout Asia for centuries, buckwheat pillows are a proven means of attaining better, more restful sleep. Filled with thousands of tiny all-natural buckwheat hulls, these pillows provide luxurious support for your body that can’t be matched by traditional pillows. The unique malleable characteristic of the filling enables a buckwheat pillow to conform perfectly to the shape of your body, providing consistent, cool and comfortable support.
Typical pillows filled with soft, compressible filling types like memory foam or down can collapse under the weight of your body. They lose their loft and become too thin, requiring frequent readjustment. To make matters worse, traditional pillows can build up and retain your body heat, making them uncomfortably warm. Fiddling with your pillow to find the “sweet spot” is inconvenient and, well… uncomfortable.
Completely relax with consistently comfortable and cool support.
Buckwheat hulls move and shift, but do not compress under pressure like soft pillow fillings. Each individual hull’s irregular edges allow it to grip its neighbors. All the hulls work together enabling your pillow to hold a consistent shape that mimics the contour of your body, eliminating stress and pressure points.
By adjusting the shape and thickness of Hullo, you create perfect support for your neck and head. This removes stress from your spine. A buckwheat pillow’s malleable quality supports the space beneath your neck, keeping your spine straight and allowing your neck and back muscles to completely relax. Many people are pleased to discover how something as simple as a pillow can have such a positive impact on their sleep.
Adjust the thickness and malleability of Hullo by adding or removing buckwheat hulls anytime. Hullo ships fully stuffed, so you'll have plenty of buckwheat hulls to get your pillow just how you like it.
Traditional bolsters can retain body heat, becoming uncomfortable, particularly during the hot summer months. The lack of air flow prevents warm air from escaping your bolster’s fill. Hullo’s buckwheat hull fill allows air to move freely through your pillow, preventing uncomfortable heat build up.
Rest comfortably on your Hullo bolster pillow knowing that itÕs been produced using the best materials and the most responsible resources available.
Because buckwheat is speedy, short-season crop that grows readily without requiring the use of harmful pesticides, it is used to help rejuvenate soil damaged by over farming. Buckwheat plays a fundamental part in supporting sustainable agricultural practices.
The certified organic cotton used in our products is produced under strict guidelines that prohibit the use of toxic pesticides, synthetic fertilizers and genetically engineered seeds. Buckwheat pillows contain no animal products for those interested in a vegan lifestyle.
