BENEFITS OF USING OUR EYE PILLOW
HOT, COLD & AROMA THERAPYCold therapy aids in relieving headaches and migraines and is great for de-puffing around the eyes.
HOT THERAPYIn addition to creating a relaxing and cozy ritual, heat applied to the eyes can stimulate the meibomian glands. These tiny oil glands line the eyelids and are responsible for secreting oil which coats the surface of our eyes and keeps the water component of our tears from evaporating thus drying out the eyes. If you are experiencing dry eyes, give this a try every evening followed by gently rolling the fingers over the eyelids.
AROMATHERAPYWe intentionally choose lavender and chamomile for their relaxation properties. The scent of lavender is loved by many, and research suggests that it can be useful in treating anxiety, insomnia, and restlessness. Also used for its help in relieving headache + migraine symptoms. If you aren’t one for fragrance, the slightly more subtle scent of chamomile may be for you. More commonly consumed as tea, chamomile has a soothing scent that relaxes the mind, known for calming anger and irritability. Either scent will help calm the nervous system leaving you feeling relaxed.
