Impossibile caricare la disponibilità di ritiro
Il Mediflow® Waterbase™ Pillow è l’unico cuscino cervicale al mondo supportato da uno studio clinico randomizzato indipendente della Johns Hopkins University, che ne dimostra l’efficacia nel ridurre il dolore cervicale al risveglio e migliorare la qualità del sonno.
A differenza dei tradizionali cuscini in schiuma o fibra, che tendono a comprimersi e perdere supporto durante la notte, il sistema idrostatico Waterbase™ utilizza l’acqua - un mezzo non comprimibile - per offrire un supporto cervicale immediato, auto-livellante e costante in qualsiasi posizione di riposo.
Caratteristiche principali

- rivestimento ipoallergenico in 100% cotone
- strato comfort premium in fibra di poliestere
- isolamento termico per evitare il contatto diretto con acqua fredda
- design lavabile in lavatrice
Clinicamente validato.
Progettato per offrire un’esperienza di supporto cervicale realmente diversa.
How to Set Up Your Mediflow® Pillow - Step by Step
- Remove the pillow from its packaging. Locate the fill cap on the back of the pillow.
- Open the fill cap by turning it anticlockwise. A small funnel/cup is provided to make filling easier.
- Fill with ordinary cold tap water to your desired starting volume. Start at ~3 litres (Medium) for your first night.
- Replace and tighten the fill cap securely by turning clockwise until the seal is firm.
- Gently lay the pillow flat and press lightly to confirm no leakage from the valve. The I-beam construction prevents water from pooling to one side.
- Place inside your standard pillowcase. The pillow fits all standard pillowcase sizes.
- Sleep on it for 3-4 nights. Adjust the water volume in 0.5L increments until you find your ideal firmness level.
Maintenance: The cotton shell is fully machine washable – empty all water first, then machine wash at 30°C. Do not tumble dry at high heat. The water core does not require replacement. Occasional water change (every few months) with fresh tap water is recommended for hygiene.
FAQ
How does the Mediflow® Water Pillow work?
The pillow contains a sealed waterbase pouch (the Waterbase™) as its core. Unlike foam or fibre that compress under head weight, water is non-compressible; it displaces laterally to fill the gap beneath your neck as your head rests on it. When you change sleeping position, the water instantly redistributes to maintain the same cervical support height. The comfort you feel is the soft polyester fibre layer on top; the therapeutic work is done invisibly by the water beneath.
Is the Mediflow® Water Pillow actually clinically proven?
Yes, uniquely so. A randomised controlled trial was conducted at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (Lavin et al., 1997) and published in the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. The study compared Mediflow® against standard roll pillows and high-quality standard pillows in a blinded evaluation. Results showed statistically significant reduction in morning neck pain and highest overall sleep quality scores. This is the only pillow of its kind to be peer-reviewed at this level.
How much water do I put in my MEediflow Water Pillow?
Start with approximately 3 litres (Medium firmness) for your first night. If you wake with neck stiffness, add water in 0.5-litre increments. If you feel pressure or discomfort, remove 0.5 litres. Most users find their ideal volume within 3–5 nights. Soft setting: ~2L. Medium: ~3L. Firm: ~4 5L. Side sleepers with wide shoulders and larger frames typically prefer Firm. Stomach sleepers generally prefer Soft.
Is the pillow likely to leak?
The Waterbase™ pouch uses I-Beam construction – an internal architectural support system that prevents the water from shifting excessively to one side. The fill cap uses a positive-seal valve design. With proper sealing (turn cap clockwise until firm), leakage during normal sleep use is not expected. As with any water based product, do not jump on or apply extreme force to the pillow.
How do I clean the Mediflow® pillow?
Completely empty the water from the Waterbase™ by opening the fill cap and tilting the pillow. Once empty, the pillow can be machine washed at 30°C. Do not tumble dry at high temperatures. The water pouch itself does not need washing – just the cotton shell and fibre layer. For ongoing hygiene, it is recommended to change the water every 2–3 months with fresh tap water.
Will it fit in a standard pillowcase?
Yes. The Mediflow® Waterbase™ Pillow is designed to the standard pillow dimensions and fits all standard pillowcases. No special bedding is required.
Is the Mediflow Water Pillow suitable for children?
The Mediflow® pillow can be used by older children and teenagers with appropriate water volume setting (typically Soft, 2L). For young children, always consult a paediatrician or physiotherapist for guidance on appropriate cervical support.
