Under normal circumstances, prickly ash seeds can be used to make pillows, which can help relieve fatigue, improve sleep quality, prevent cervical spondylosis, alleviate headaches, and provide antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. They help relax the body and mind, reduce fatigue and stress, and offer some relief for headaches.

Under normal circumstances, prickly ash seeds can be used to make pillows, offering benefits such as relieving fatigue, improving sleep quality, preventing cervical spondylosis, alleviating headaches, and providing antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects.
1. Relieving fatigue: The scent emitted by prickly ash seeds enters the brain through the nasal cavity, stimulating nerves and helping to relax the mind and body, thereby alleviating fatigue and stress.
2. Improving sleep quality: Prickly ash seeds are warm in nature and can promote blood circulation in the head, supplying the brain with more oxygen and nutrients, placing the brain in a more comfortable state, thus helping to improve sleep quality and reduce problems such as insomnia and excessive dreaming.
3. Preventing cervical spondylosis: The shape and firmness of a prickly ash seed pillow can provide certain support to the neck, maintaining the cervical spine in a relatively natural physiological curvature and reducing pressure on the cervical vertebrae.
4. Alleviating headaches: Prickly ash seeds can promote blood circulation in the head and have a certain relieving effect on headaches caused by poor circulation or invasion of cold wind.
5. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory: Prickly ash seeds contain volatile oils, which are natural antibacterial components that help inhibit common bacteria and fungi, reducing bacterial growth on the scalp and pillow to some extent, and preventing scalp infections, itching, and other issues.
When making a prickly ash seed pillow, to avoid bacterial and mold growth, the prickly ash seeds should be thoroughly dried before use.
