What is MIMOS PILLOW

The Mimos pillow was developed in Spain by Electronic Engineer, David Verde and his wife Yin Chen, a Molecular Biologist. It is a Class 1 Medical Device and its aim is to lower the current value of 47% of babies that develop some form of positional cranial deformities.

The Mimos pillow both prevents and corrects positional skull deformities and we recommend all babies use one from the newborn stage to help avoid flat spots altogether.

In order to keep the Mimos pillow as effective as possible, we ensure that we work together with pediatric osteopaths, physiotherapists and chiropractors as we have found that the Mimos Pillow often needs to be paired with such treatments to help treat underlying issues, for example torticollis.

Our pillow is highly recommended by Pediatricians, Neurosurgeons and many other healthcare professionals and is currently available in 25 countries around the world

What is Plagiocephaly?

Plagiocephaly is a condition characterized by an asymmetrical distortion (flattening of one side) of the skull. It is also referred to as “Flat Head Syndrome”. Plagiocephaly is the term that is used to describe a diagonal asymmetry across the head shape. This term particularly describes a flattening to one side at the back of the head; this often causes some facial asymmetry. In the moderate to severe cases, there may be: Variations in the eyes alignment, one eye appears larger than the other. Ear displacement: The ear on the affected side may be pushed further forwards the front of the head compared to the other side. One cheek appears fuller than the other. The forehead on the affected side becomes more prominent. Plagiocephaly is the most common form of this syndrome among young babies. There are different types of flat head syndrome as shown in the pictures here.

Why MIMOS PILLOW

As a newborn, a baby will usually spend most of the time back-sleeping producing a constant pressure on the back of his/her head, the Mimos pillow is specially engineered to distributing pressure evenly and allows 400% pressure reduction on the baby’s soft head. As long as the head rests within the pillow cavity, this allows gentle head support to encourage a baby’s natural neck movements. The Mimos pillow is composed of a tridimensional polyester structure that allows the air to flow through with no risk of suffocation for the baby.
