the story
« When I noticed the lack of quality children’s pillows on the market, I started to get informed. I wanted to give the best to my
two girls, Mako and Yuri. I thus started researching different types of pillows and found some very interesting information on
buckwheat hulls. It then struck me that this is what was in a pillow I had brought back from a trip to Korea, my home
country. I proceeded to adapt the format of the pillow for my two little darlings and they adored it. At that moment Mayukori
was born! »

the stuffing industry

chemical productsvolatile organic compounds VOCs
flame retardant compounds FRCs
acaricides
You may think you know what is contained within your pillow, cushion, mattress, etc. Many chemical products are involved in
the fabrication of stuffing products. It is worrying to think that we spend 8 hours per night with our head resting upon our
pillow, not to mention babies who spend 4 hours a day lying on a nursing pillow.
the stuffing industry
chemical productsvolatile organic compounds VOCs
flame retardant compounds FRCs
acaricides
Synthetic stuffing materials (polyester…) of pillows and nursing pillows are petroleum derived - they are often residues of
the petrochemical industry - and they release an important and durable quantity of VOCs. Certain VOCs are classi$ed as
carcinogenic (xylene, benzene,…).

chemical productsvolatile organic compounds VOCs
flame retardant compounds FRCs
acaricides
In order to meet the flammability requirements of bedding products, pillows are most often soaked in FRCs. Made from
heavy metals such as bromine, they have the effect of retarding the spread of flames. Up to 30% of what goes into the
making of a pillow can be comprised of FRCs.The breakdown products that result from these (dioxins and furans) are
considered to be extremely toxic. Here are a few of the effects of these products on the body: hyperthyroidism, nervous
system development problems (autism, hyperactivity, attention de$cit, behavioural problems…). FRC traces found in thehuman body double every 5 years.

acaricides
In order to kill the dust mites that cause 70% of respiratory allergies, pillows are most often soaked in acaricides. Most often,
pesticides affect the nervous system (system in your body that controls your nerves and muscles).

pinching of blood vessels
pinching of nerves, muscles or ligaments
The spine is the intermediary between the brain and the body. It is thus important to take care of it. The spine follows a
natural curve that must be respected, day and night. If your pillow does not adequately support the cervical vertebrae or if
your nursing pillow does not properly support the lumbar vertebrae, the vertebrae may shift away from their normal
alignment and the pressure exerted can cause a variety of different problems.

Their ideal environment is bedding, a warm and humid place where our skin scales. Mites feed on the $fty million skin scales
that we shed during sleep. A single gram of dust can contain between 2,000 and 10,000 mites.They reproduce very rapidly
in humidity levels between 65 and 80% and at temperatures between 20 and 30 degrees.

the niño child pillows+ a companion for sleeping
+ 2 to 12 years old, 1 pillow for the whole childhood
+ the pillow can grow with the child
+ multifunctional for adults: travel pillow, neck pillow, lumbar support, leg pillow
+ the differences between the regular and the organic lines: organic buckwheat hulls and fabrics + different design + 10 $
the flora eye pillows+ Buckwheat hulls exert pressure on the eyes which promotes relaxation
+ The dried flowers liberate essential oils which favour relaxation and sleep.
+ The eye pillow blocks out all light, whichfacilitates slumber.
+ Sleeping, relaxing, meditation, yoga, spa, bath, travel...
Buckwheat : this eye pillow can be heated or chilled, which encourages relaxation and sleep, and you can add a drop of
essential oil.
the luna nursing pillows+ body pillow : favors a good sleeping position
+ only one pillow for supporting the whole body
+ easier to turn while sleeping
+ moulds to the shape of your body
+ supports and allows for a proper alignment of the spinal column
+ adjusts to your morphology and your sleeping position.
1 An extremity of the luna pillow can support the head and can compensate for the distance between the ear and the
shoulder in order to keep the spinal axis straight.
2 The other extremity supports the legs and allows you to keep just the right distance between your knees, keeping your
pelvis and your lumbar vertebrae straight.
3 The hollow part of the luna pillow can serve as a pillow for the tummy and for baby. The inside of the moon can be placed
under the tummy, which reduces the amount of weight the mother must support during sleep.
the luna nursing pillows+ nursing pillow : favors a good feeding position
+ good for breastfeeding and bootlefeeding
+ good for mumy and daddy
+ good for feeding twins
+ moulds to the shape of your body
+ supports and allows for a proper alignment of the spinal column
+ adjusts to your morphologies
the luna nursing pillows+ nursing pillow : favors a good feeding position
1 Hammock position (before 3 months)
Tie the luna’s straps together and pass over your head and one shoulder. The straps thus rest on one shoulder and the
cushion rests upon your thighs and tummy. You can then place baby inside the nest. The baby is now in an inclined
hammock-style position.
+ adapts itself to the very small size of your baby
+ does not need additional support or supporting with the arm
+ similar to the natural fetal position of the baby
the luna nursing pillows+ nursing pillow : favors a good feeding position
2 Lumbar position (after 3 months)
You can wrap the luna around your tummy while laying it flat on your thighs. It will take the form of both tummy and child
perfectly when baby is placed on the cushion. This position gives you another advantage: you can push a small amount of
the hulls into both extremities of the luna, then cross the extremities behind your lower back before leaning back. By placing
the two extremities of the cushion on the lumbar vertebrae region, you create excellent lumbar support. You can easily cross
and position the luna’s two extremities by pulling on the cushion’s two straps.
+ promotes a good spinal position with little effort and maximum relaxation
+ avoid back pain after feeding
+ adjustable height depending on the baby size
the luna nursing pillows+ nursing pillow : favors a good feeding position
2 Lumbar position (after 3 months)
the luna nursing pillows+ nest mattress : favors a good sleeping position
+ good for naps, nights and travels
+ good for babies born by cesarean section and premature babies
+ supports and respects the spine’s natural curve
+ secures the baby, who feels nestled and comforted
+ prevents your baby’s head from flattening when he is lying down
+ adjusts to the size of the baby
Just fold it in half like two arms preparing to embrace your baby. You can maintain it in this position by tying the two straps
together. Baby’s head rests on the middle part of the moon and his whole spine rests within the nest crater, which respects
the spine’s natural curve.
You can adjust the mattress’ inclination by spreading out the hulls to your liking. By placing them in the center of the moon,
you will get maximum inclination, which is excellent if baby is congested or has digestion problems.
the luna nursing pillows+ lounge-seat : favors a good stimulation position
+ good until 6 months
+ supports and respects the spine’s natural curve
+ secured semi-inclined position
+ adjusts to the size of the baby
By folding moon’s two arms and attaching the two straps, you will create a small crater inside the LUNA cushion. This crater
is perfect for maintaining baby in a semi-inclined position. For this type of use, make sure that all hulls are located in the
center of the moon with none in the extremities. In this manner, you will obtain sufficient support for a semi-inclined
position. Baby’s bottom will be in the crater with his head at the top of the cushion. This use is excellent for letting baby play
in security while you attend to other matters.
the luna nursing pillows+ seating-support : teach baby to sit up
+ good from 6 months
+ supports and respects the spine’s natural curve
+ helps baby’s muscles develop
+ adapts to the muscle tone
+ secured sitting position
1 You can surround him with pillow right up to armpit level. His whole body is thus surrounded and supported by buckwheat
hulls and he can remain seated in a straight and upright position. You can attach the main straps between themselves to
ensure that the cushion does not slide.
2 As he acquires more and more muscle tone, you can gradually untighten the LUNA cushion.
3 When baby is $nally able to sit on his own, the cushion can be left around him for security if ever he should fall
unexpectedly.
