THE HEALTHY WAY OF LISTENING - About the MusiCure Pillow
MusiCure Pillow is a comfort memory-foam pillow with built-in speaker cabinets of high quality. The pillow is
designed specifically for optimal private and intense listening to the evidence-based MusiCure music - but can
also be used for playing audio books or other music. The pillow is also developed as a "healthy" alternative to
headphones and earplugs. The listening experience is concentrated and personal, and when listening, one
does not get shut out from the outside world, as can be the case with headphones/earplugs.
The texture of the ergonomic and viscoelastic foam pillow material is pleasantly supportive and comfortable for
both head and neck. The built-in speakers are passive and require no power, batteries or the like. All you need
is connecting an external audio source, such as MP3 player, iPod, smartphone, CD disc player etc. The pillow
is also suitable for listening to TV, radio, audio books or your mobile phone (on speaker), as well as any other
audio source with possibility for mini-jack connection.
!Product specifications for the pillow: The MusiCure Pillow is made of high quality Visco Elastic Memory Foam,
which ensures maximum comfort and optimal head and neck support. There are two layers of cover where the
outermost cover is the hospital-approved "Techmaflex" hygiene cover, removable and washable at 95 degrees.
All materials contained in the pillow, as well as cover and cable, are approved and CE marked according to
current EU standards, and the total product is registered and approved as a class 1 medical device.
With the pillow comes a convenient travel and storage bag that protects the pillow effectively, and it is always
recommended to store the pillow in the bag when not in use.
Correct positioning of the head on the pillow
MusiCure Pillow is designed as an ergonomic viscoelastic
foam pillow, that provides maximum head and neck support.
Therefore, it is important to position your head correctly on the
pillow in order to get the best relax and sleep comfort and
optimum sound from the built-in speakers:
The optimal positioning is lying or sitting with the head located
at the center of the high part of the pillow, so the cord and the
MP3 player are located at the left side of the pillow.
Important!
Although the ear is not directly affected, as is the case with e.g. headphones. or ear-plugs, you should as
private user or healthcare professional, always be aware if the sound level is appropriate. Never set the volume
higher than what is equal to normal conversation level (50-60 dB).
Temperature sensitivity and general advice
The pillow's foam material is temperature sensitive and can feel hard if stored cold, even though it quickly
becomes 'normal' again upon contact with ordinary body temperature. The pillow should also be placed away
from heat sources such as direct sunlight, radiators, cookers or other heat-producing appliances. The pillow
must not come into contact with water in any way or be used outdoors in the rain. Pay special attention to the
fact that the mini-jack cable is always free and not in contact with the head and neck - take special care with
this if children use the pillow.
!DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT OF THE PILLOW:
The extent of the pillow = 50 x 30 x 10/7 cm. Weight 870 g
