RISEUP SLEEP LAB GUIDES
Articles and guides for better sleep
This is the guide library of RiseUp Sleep Lab, the orthopedic pillow brand from Israel. Three full guides explain how to choose an orthopedic pillow for the position you actually sleep in, which signs suggest your current pillow has stopped supporting you, and what memory foam (visco) really does. No medical promises — just what is worth checking before you buy.
All three guides are currently published in Hebrew only. Each card below is described in English so you know exactly what it covers, and the link opens the original Hebrew article.
- Choosing by sleep position
- Height and firmness
- Memory foam vs. synthetic fill
- When to replace a pillow
What you will find here
Three guides, each answering a different question.
- Choosing a pillow
- How to match height, firmness and fill material to the way you sleep.
- A quick self-check
- Five practical signs to look for in the morning — and in the pillow itself.

Which guide do you need right now?
Pick the one that matches what is on your mind today. Shopping for a new pillow — start with the choosing guide. Waking up with a stiff neck — run through the five signs. Weighing up fill materials — the visco guide explains what memory foam does and what to check before you buy.
A note on language. The three guides themselves are published in Hebrew and have not been translated yet. Every card is summarised in English below, and each one is marked Hebrew so you know what you are opening.
How to choose an orthopedic pillow that genuinely fits you
איך לבחור כרית אורטופדית שתתאים במיוחד לך?
A step-by-step guide: work out the sleeping position you actually spend the night in, match the height and firmness to it, and understand the difference between memory foam, natural latex and synthetic fill — including what to take into account if you wake with a stiff neck.
Five signs your pillow has stopped supporting you
5 סימנים שהכרית שלך הורסת לך את הבריאות
Neck pain in the morning, pins and needles in the hands, headaches on waking, trouble settling down to sleep, and a pillow that has flattened and lost its shape — five practical signs you can check tonight, plus a simple rule of thumb for when a pillow is due for replacement.
Visco memory foam pillows: what the material actually does
כרית ויסקו אורטופדית – למה כולם מדברים עליה?
What visco (memory foam) really is, how it responds to body heat and spreads pressure across a wider area, who it tends to suit, and what is worth checking before you buy when it comes to ventilation, foam density and how well it holds up over time.
