"I didn't notice it." That's what my husband said after the first night, and that's the highest possible praise for someone with a CPAP mask. After the second night, he continues to sleep more soundly, more solidly, than in years. THANK YOU for this pillow--it's made a huge difference in his comfort and his wellbeing.

ContourLiving Customer on 3/5/2011, said:
Just slept my first night with this pillow. Absolutely wonderful! I haven't slept that well since I've been using CPAP! The foam stinks, however, my experience with any memory foam is that it stinks when you first get it. I highly recommend.

    Recommendations for body positions post tummy-tuck surgery

    Among the various trends in our ever-changing society, plastic surgery is certainly one of them. Abdominoplasty, better known as the tummy-tuck, has held one of the top 5 most popular surgeries title since 2010, as 116,352 patients underwent the knife, according to the Report of the 2010 Plastic Surgery Statistics by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Just as this invasive procedure is a cosmetic investment, proper care and recuperation must also accompany.
    Starting with proper body elevation and positioning, from laying down to sleeping, there are certain precautions that need to be considered for optimal healing and comfort after tummy-tuck surgery. Supportive pillows come highly recommended for comfortable rest. The BackMax back and body wedge support system is ideal for this type of post-operative healing. The benefits of this product are countless, as it can be used in bed or on the floor and making it a perfect accessory for watching television, napping or reading. The Multi-functional full body support system helps creates positions recommended for elevating all parts of the body, including upper body, legs and feet.
    However, Contour Living has highlighted the top eight most comfortable and supportive positions using the BackMax Back and Body wedge cushion.
    Comfort can be found in:
    Position 1:  An upright seated position
    Position 2: Elevated knee and calf support
    Position 3: Elevated head position
    Position 4: Reclined with leg and calf support
    Position 5: Arched position
    Position 6: Elevated knee support position
    Position 7: Reclined position with bent knees
    Position 8: Supporting head, neck, knees and calves simultaneously
    Offering your body this type of comfort and support will only enhance your results. We’ve taken the time to invest in the care of our bodies through extensive surgery, so it is just as important to invest in  top-of-the-line quality and care.

    Leg Pillow's "Secret" to a Good Night's Rest

    What may be the solution to the start of a long night ahead is properly aligning the neck, back and hips. With the right tool, this can be a quick and easy fix. Simply placing a quality crafted pillow in between the inner legs or thighs is the adequate support needed for proper alignment. Contour Products created a line of leg pillows as a solution.  Try the Contour Leg Memory Foam Pillow, the Original Contour Leg Pillow - a slightly more supportive version with standard foam, or the Contour Secret Leg Pillow which combines a foam core surrounded by a fiber fill layer.


    Do you ever find yourself settling in for a nice, relaxing night of rest, laying comfortably in between soft, warm blankets, ready to release the stress of the day but just can't seem to find that perfect "spot?" The pillow isn't fluffy enough so your neck aches. The mattress feels firm laying on your side so your knees and back ache. Tossing and turning seems to be the theme.

    Regardless of the leg pillow model, the patented contour design supports and aligns the lower body, relieving uncomfortable pressure from the hips and back, keeping the knees elevated from rubbing one another. These Contour Leg Pillows fit the contour of your legs perfectly, allowing for optimal support and comfort, maintaining the same shape all night.

    The Neck Pillow with a “Twist”

    The Contour Twist Neck Pillow is the Perfect Multi-Purpose Pillow
    You might not necessarily think of a pillow as being “one size fits all” but in the age of orthopedic therapy solutions, such a product does exist.  Contour Living has created the Contour Twist Neck Pillow, the most versatile and useful pillow you will ever buy. Bend it, twist it, shape it is the name; Multi-purpose function is the game. Made from soft poly-foam fibers, the pillow is bendable into almost any shape and position, allowing a perfect custom-fit  anywhere on your body.
                This innovative roll pillow is perfect for not only providing the ultimate comfort and support to any part of the body, but most specifically the tender muscles and joints of the neck. The secret to the versatility is the internal plastic spine that bends and twists, conforming and holding the pillow in any position.

    You may also:
    “Twist” the pillow into any comfortable shape while traveling in-flight, as a passenger in a car or simply watching television on the couch.
    “Bend” the Twist pillow into the perfect leg support, as it fits to the shape of your legs. Bend it to cradle and comfort your newborn in a snug, secure position.
    “Shape” it to the perfect bedtime head pillow and rest soundly throughout the entire night. Bend it to become the perfect custom back support suitable for any chair.
    There are so many ways to the Contour Neck Twist Pillow can provide ease for everyday living. As one of the top-sellers on ContourLiving.com, the Twist Neck Pillow will satisfy the needs of anyone whether working, sleeping or even playing!

    5 Raving Reviews of the Contour CPAP Pillow from Amazon.com Users


    One of the wonderful aspects of the Internet is just how accessible any product can be. Customers can shop on multiple websites to find the exact product they’re searching for, purchase, and even post comments and reviews helpful for other potential buyers looking to make the same investment. Here’s what customers had to say about their Contour CPAP Pillows purchased from Amazon.com:
    1.       This Thing Actually Works
    “As a user of a CPAP machine, I have spend my evenings trying to adjust and configure pillows so that I can wear the face mask with some semblance of comfort, with little success. I took a chance on this sleep pillow and I have to say it works great! Not only does it nicely accommodate the shape of the mask, the neck support is a real added value”. – Stephen
    2.       Ahhhh, Sweet Slumber!
    I have been a CPAP user for about 12 years now, and all that time I’ve been trying to find a pillow that didn’t dislodge my mask. At long last, the answer has arrived! This pillow is supportive and comfortable for the head and neck, and the cuts for the mask make it so the mask doesn’t get moved and start leaking! Amazing! No more stiff neck from craning upward to keep the mask off the pillow! No more air being blasted into my eyes or (worse yet) onto my husband! It is wonderful to sleep deeply and without interruption. I can’t say enough good things about it”. – Kathryn Hartsell
    3.       Excellent CPAP Pillow
    “I’ve been using this pillow for 3 weeks and it is fabulous! I highly recommend it for anyone sleeping with a CPAP mask”. – Deb T.
    4.       Love This New Pillow!
    “I recently purchased this pillow, as I needed a new pillow and decided to try one to use with my CPAP machine. It works great! Very comfortable and a great size to take with me when I am traveling. Recommend trying out this moderately priced pillow for CPAP users! – P.F. Innis
    5.       Changed Everything
    “I spend three weeks trying to sleep with a mask and never made it through one night without multiple interruptions, air leaks and mask readjustments. Then this pillow arrived two weeks ago. I’ve slept with the mask on all night ever since. So-total failure without it, and total success with it”. – Andrew Muir

    The Leg and Knee Pillow for a Better Balanced Body

    The Top Five Reasons the Leg Pillow is the Way to Go!

    When we think of settling in for a full nights rest, "proper alignment of the knees, back, hips and spine" usually aren't at the forefront of the mind after a hectic day.  As much as we look toward those precious nighttime hours of rest and relaxation to recharge our mind and bodies, the slumber should be of quality, not quantity.  In order to ensure the most out of our time lying down, it is essential that our bodies are correctly aligned. Ensuring unnecessary pressure and tension are alleviated from the lower body during sleep is just as important as not slouching during the day.

    The Contour Leg Pillow is the ideal solution to providing the upmost comfort to the lower part of your body, relieving tension and pressure from the knees, hips and back.


    1. The Leg Pillow is made of 100% memory foam, with a super-soft velour cover making it a comfortable addition to align your body properly
    2. The pillow fits to the curves of your legs, maintaining the shape throughout the night
    3. The Contour Leg Pillow is ideal for “side Sleepers” and those that suffer from Sciatica, as it restores the body’s natural alignment, leaving the sleeper pain free and well-rested.
    4. The Contour Leg Pillow is also a very easy and affordable way to aide in any leg muscle cramps, uncomfortable varicose veins as it acts as a cradle, improving overall circulation.
    5. Over 7 million Contour Leg Pillows have been sold! Experience the comfort and quality rest that so many others enjoy each night!

    Invest in Good Rest

    When is the RIGHT time to invest in a new mattress?

    It is simply in our human nature to “invest.” Certainly from a monetary perspective, “investing” in our everyday lives is inevitable; from choosing to pump the Supreme Unleaded gasoline versus Regular into our already high-priced and motorized “investment” ensuring it drives to optimal performance, to investing in copious amounts of department store cosmetics and skin care products to ensure that natural, radiant glowing face shines brightly each morning, down to the simple investment in our daily cup of exorbitantly trendy coffee we so rely on to start the morning off right. So why should investing in a quality night’s sleep be any different?

    In terms of following in the (Americanized) investment footsteps: it shouldn’t. A good mattress is certainly a worthy venture to invest upon. The act of replacing a worn mattress with a new quality-crafted mattress can work mere wonders Not only is it the key to a quality night’s sleep, but crucial to a healthy neck, back and spine. The bottom line: a well-produced mattress can mean the difference of waking up feeling energized or leave you stiff as a board.

    So when is the time for an upgrade? Experts suggest to upgrade about every ten years or so. However, superior comfort and overall support take precedence. The main objective in the investment of a new mattress is to be able to fully relax the body as you slumber the night away, with little to no tossing or turning, and with enough support underneath the body to avoid any pain or discomfort whatsoever.

    It is also a good idea to check your old mattress for any obvious imperfections. Rips, tears, lumps or sagging in the pad or pillow itself could signal the need for a new investment. Aside from the more obvious indications of a need exist some less obvious; tuning into your body and assessing your needs of the present day as opposed to the needs that your body may have called for year prior will guide you through the mattress-shopping experience. Bodies change and so do our nightly necessities. Certain areas of the back or neck may require a bit more padding now than at one time. Certain sleep positions may cause the onset of snoring or sleep apnea if not supported correctly. Take a moment to reassess your personal needs at the present moment to truly reap the benefits of a quality mattress.

    5 Star Review for CPAP Pillow

    Here is a five star review from actual Contour CPAP Pillow customer, submitted May 18, 2011:

    I received mine (Contour CPAP pillow) in the mail yesterday. Despite the reviews of it being too thin for proper support or too thick at the top I went to the web site and selected the medium model. Having read some of the negative comments prepared me for creative solutions. About the pillow being too thin, I put another older pillow underneath, it was at a perfect height and allowed me to put my arm underneath; bonus since I sleep on my side and stomach. About the top being too thick, I found that it rolled chin downward and almost forced my face to the point where the mask fit exactly in the cutout. It did it's job. I didn't spend the night with the mask shifting and breaking it's seal. Thank you Contour, for a good nights sleep.

    New Features for Sleep Apnea Pillow

    The Contour CPAPmax Pillow has already received a facelift! - This pillow is designed to help sleep apnea patients sleep comfortably and in the proper position when using CPAP therapy.   It has been extremely well received and comments from users and respiratory therapists have been very complimentary.

    The new version now has an extra foam layer in the inside of the pillow adding 3/4" of an inch to the height.  Best of all, users can remove this layer to create a smaller profile pillow.  This innovative design addition compliments the two sided pillow surface design:  one side is memory foam with a cool layers of 3-D mesh fabric designed to keep the patient cooler and reduce humidity and perspiration during sleep.  Flip the pillow over and there is a fiber filled layer that feels more like a tradition polyester-filled pillow.
