This Cervical Pillow comfortably aligns the spine and supports the neck for a more comfortable night's sleep. It can be used when lying on your side or back, and with or without a standard pillow for additional comfort. The cylindrical shape is great for reducing chronic neck and back pain, pain post-injury or post-surgery, for comfort during pregnancy, in yoga or even just as a stylish decoration. The pillow is made from memory foam which contours to your body, will not lose shape over time and is free of unpleasant or "chemical" odors. This is the pillow you want for a pain-free night of sleep. It not only fits the bed well and looks great, it's firm without being uncomfortable. The pillow offers two levels of support as its firmer on the ends and softer in the middle. This allows users to customize the support and firmness that is suitable for them. You're going to want more than one as this pillow isn't just for the head and neck. Placing one under the knees soothes the legs. Even off the bed, this pillow works wonders. Provides terrific lumbar support when used on office chairs, planes or anyplace else you'll be sitting for a while. At only 17" long, this pillow fits into most travel bags, sport bags and backpacks, letting you easily take relief on the go. The memory foam pillow is easily cleaned by simply running warm water over it until it comes out clear and allowing it to completely air dry.
