“This pillow is just the right size! Fits my head perfectly and cradles the neck -- no ‘getting used to’ period needed! Seriously so comfortable!!” Tracy, December, 2014

“Haven't slept through the whole night forever. I do now.” Jim, November, 2014

“This pillow gives great support to the neck while sleeping. No matter whether I'm on my side or back I feel supported to ease neck pain and keep my spine in alignment. Welcome replacement for my older model that I've used for a number of years.” October, 2014

“It would take me forever to go to sleep, then never a restful sleep! Now ten minutes I'm asleep and for all night. Great product!” August, 2014

“I have trouble sleeping so I was looking for a pillow that would help me breath and not snore. I use the strips on my nose and elevate myself but my chin would still drop down and obstruct my breathing. This pillow does just what I hoped! Thanks.” Larry, July, 2014

“Love it. I was looking for one for a long time, to replace the one I had.” June, 2014

How Often Should You Replace Your Pillow?

When stopping to consider how much time you spend sleeping each night, the lifespan of your pillow might surprise you. Or just really gross you out. A pillow that’s only a few years old has been exposed too all types of germs and sleeping surfaces – especially for those who travel with their own items in tow. (Even couches or lounge chairs can expose your pillow to new substances.) It’s a process that, if repeated for too many years, can expose your sleeping (and deep breathing) self to outside germs and other airborne substances.  

Pillows that are “too old” can also break down, not offering enough support for the neck, back, and head. (Even those who prefer a short or flat pillow still need support.) Simply from age and use, their inner sections of foam or cotton (or whatever pillow filling you prefer) can lose its integrity. Without its shape, however, the head loses its ability to support, which can create headaches, or a number of other bone and muscle issues. 

So … how often should you change your pillow? Depends on the make and model. Pillows that are made of higher quality foams are made to hold up for years on end. While bargain options will need to be replaced every year, if not sooner. Pillows can also be kept clean with specialty liners, lengthening their lifespan even further.

Those with these higher quality pillows are less likely to replace them. (At least as often.) Though a good rule of thumb lies with purchase date – if you can’t remember the last time you bought a pillow, it’s likely time for a new one. You can also check comfort levels – if your pillow isn’t as comfortable as you’d like, replace it. They’re affordable, and offer hours of support and comfortable sleep. 

A small price to pay for a consistent night’s rest.

Save Your Neck!

Save Your Neck!

The single most common reason for neck pain is poor posture, plain and simple. Sitting for prolonged periods hunched over a computer, for example, can do it, as can poor sleeping posture. Many people respond to stress by tensing up their neck muscles, which over time, can lead to neck pain as well as headaches. All of the above can cause painful conditions such as neck strain or even pinched nerves.

Neck strain is most often the result of sleeping in an awkward position. This puts tension on the muscles that run along the back of your neck. If you experience neck stiffness upon waking in the morning, this is most likely what has happened. A good way to relieve the pain and loosen muscles is to stand under a hot shower and lit the water run on the nape of your neck. Press your chin to your chest to stretch out those neck muscles for about 30 seconds. Then hold your head back, pause, and flex forward again. Now roll your neck from side to side a few times. This should help to ease the stiffness and pain.

It has been estimated that 70% of all pinched nerves are caused by poor posture. Basically, a pinched nerve means that a disc that sits between two nerves in the neck has probably been bumped out of place. In addition to the pain that you feel in your neck, you may also experience some numbness and/or a tingling sensation in your arms and hands. You’ll need to seek medical attention for this one. Your care giver will likely prescribe neck-stretching exercises to alleviate pain and improve your neck’s muscles to keep the disc in place. Something you can do at home? Improve your posture. Be sure that your head doesn’t bend forward too much. When you are seated in proper posture, you should be able to draw a straight line from your ears to your shoulders on down to the hips.

Below are some additional ideas that you can do at home to help cut down on neck pain:

• Take a bath towel and fold it lengthwise. Wrap it around your neck before bedtime


• Try aspirin, naproxen or ibuprofen to relieve pain and inflammation – use as directed


• Massage your neck muscles


• Relax - Take deep breaths, shrug your shoulders


• Support your head and neck all night long with our Contour Cloud and Contour Crescent memory foam pillows


• Use the Contour Twist Pillow for head and neck support while traveling, relaxing or almost any sedentary activity.
