Placement
- • Position the pillow so the Kanuda logo faces your body.
- • This ensures the contours are aligned with the natural shape of your head, neck, and shoulders.
Height Layer Adjustment
- • Each pillow includes a Height Layer insert.
- • Place it inside the pillow cover, underneath the pillow.
- • Adjust or remove the Height Layer as needed to find your ideal height and comfort. We recommend trying the pillow without the layer initially.
Sleep Positions
- Back Sleep: Rest your head on the contoured curve to support natural alignment of the neck and spine.
- Side Sleep: Use the firmer sides of the pillow for steady support of your neck and shoulders.
Pillow Cover
- • Kanuda pillow covers are removable and washable.
- • We recommend gentle machine wash or hand wash with mild detergent.
- • Always air-dry only—do not tumble dry, as heat may damage the fabric or alter its fit.
- • Remember that the front side of the pillow has the Kanuda logo and features a slight convex indentation curve designed to support your neck.
- • Following these steps will help keep your pillow cover clean, soft, and long-lasting.
