Makes my head and back feel great. Less stiffness and pain in shoulders and back. Pillow keeps shoulders and back aligned making me feel refreshed in the morning.

New Update: It’s now been almost 6 months and I cannot do without this pillow! I now sleep solely with this pillow. I see a chiropractor for some skeletal issues. He has me roll up a hand towel and place behind my neck then lie on my back with it for ten minutes to help better the curvature in my neck. It’s a very relaxing exercise for me as by starting with knees bent and then straightening legs, it actually stretches the muscles the length of your body. Works better lying on the bed than a floor mat. Anyway- this pillow mimics that and I find it quite helpful. You really do need to take it slow at first- follow the instructions and you should be fine! Update: I know it’s only a short time later, but I am using this pillow only now and was able to get away from my older memory foam pillow completely. This is now the PERFECT pillow. I am tall in stature so purchased the full size. It’s very comfy as stated below. It is quite firm, but provides great relief and you get used to the firmness. Buy it and try it out - you have nothing to lose except for your pain. Love this pillow. I still get neck pain on and off so I switch between this pillow and my shredded foam pillow. I haven’t had this that long so maybe that’s why. However, I find that this pillow cradles my head and is so soothing and comforting for me. It supports my neck well without leaving me with a kink in my neck the next morning. I am comfortable with it no matter position I sleep in. Very happy with this purchase and glad I found it.

This is a great pillow for the price, cheaper than others, it does the job, it is, however, a bit stiff to begin with, after about a week of sleeping on it, it's much more doable. I'm thinking it helps my neck and hopefully maybe lessens my headaches.

I am rating this pillow a 1 because I do not have options to give the rating it truly deserves a zero. At one time, around 2018 this company had the perfect pillow, different from this one and it was great, best pillow ever.. But every time I upgraded that perfect pillow the quality got lower and lower in terms of the foam until that became a useless pillow with even the firm having no support. I am desperate for a pilllow so I tried this "new design" pillow and a 1 rating is just too high. I caused pain in my neck because I need a lower pillow (low loft). So then I order the samer pillow and it was the same, immediate pain on trying it. It is nothing like the older pillow of yesteryear, you know even some chirorpactors carried it. This new pillow ships on a box folded in half. No matter what the instructions said or many times to smooth out the crease, well there is a crease in the middle which affects the support of the edge. The company is too cheap to even packaged the pillow properly. Glutten for punishment I tried it a couple of nights and the pain it caused was unbelievable. Pain relief is a totally false claim, immediate pain and trying it for a couple nights just to give it a chance, even more pain. I tried this size, the smaller size, it is simply too high and I need the lower loft pillow of yesteryear. At this point, Core Products who used to make a great product, but who quality in that product went significantly down through the years and then they came up with this new horrid design, well maybe it is time for them to go out of business. I talked to two representatives there, the first one was so dumb I ended up hanging up on her. But the second one understood completely saying she got a number of calls with people saying exactly what I was saying. Well Cord Products apparently do not care about what they customers say, well for me ex-customer as this new pillow caused immediate pain. Then I orderd the smaller size hoping it was a lower loft pillow, it was not, immediate pain. If you want pain in your neck, the perhaps this is the product for you. But if not, keep looking for a decent pillow at another company. And I can't find that pillow, not yet but I know I am done with this triffling company. Well maybe not if they brought back the older style pillow with quality foam. If you have a smaller frame and need a low loft pillow, this one is not for you.

Absolutely incredible. I have been suffering from degenerative disc disease for many many years now and this is the first morning I woke up without neck pain

I sometimes twist my neck while I sleep because I sleep on my back, but my face is on side. My chiropractor suggested that I get special pillow to prevent my neck from turning too far. That's why I purchased this pillow. The package says it may take a few weeks before I get used to this product. Well, it has been a few weeks since I started using this pillow, and I haven't gotten used to it yet. I think this pillow is good for side sleepers because it has good neck support. My shoulder doesn't feel pressure. But when I sleep on my back, the neck support is so high that my head is tilted outward (like you give someone CPR), and I have to breathe from my mouth. Also my neck is soar when I wake up in the morning. It certainly keeps my neck from turning, though. Each person's body is different, so you have to try it to find out if this product is good for you or not.

I used one of these about 10 years ago while undergoing some chiropractic care. Since then my neck and back have worsened but I’m no longer a good candidate for chiro. I bought this again hoping for a miracle, and yep, it’s been a game changer. I have RA now which does affect my neck and back and jaw…how much time do you have hahaha? The reviews are correct; It may cause some discomfort for the first few days but WOW once you’re in the groove you can’t/won’t use anything else. Helpful: Get the smaller one for travel. The shape is fantastic for supporting the natural curve of the neck and especially for us side sleepers that need to support all the joints in the body. It fit right out of the wrap and the weight is good. I cover mine in a loose pillowcase b/c anything too tight will cause the pillow to change shape. And we want it flat out and supportive. If the pillow case too tight the pillow rises up on the ends and throws the physics of this miracle off. No smell out of the box/wrap. 500 stars! I fell into the memory foam trap too - but if your neck has lost its natural curve or you need support from head to toe the foam tends to not accomplish the natural position. It props you up but is not that natural curve. This allows the weight of your head to be cradled into the middle of the pillow in the most gentle way and all the aches and pains stop. This is the ONE! Quote me! And May you sleep well forever on…

This is a good support pillow. Your head cradles in the center and supports the neck for an ease of use. I would recommend this pillow.

Love these pillows --- saves many chiropractor appointments. Used them for years now.

Love love love the pillow. I had back fusion surgery and this is been extremely helpful and comfortable for me after.

works well, better than memory foam

It has taken 6 weeks to adjust to this pillow despite immediate neck pain relief, and occasionally I have reverted back to my feather pillow only to find it far less comfortable. For years I have had neck pain and often it has worsened after a night's sleep, with little ability to rotate my head. I do daily stretching and strengthening exercises and yet have not been able to make any headway despite also having physio on a regular basis. I am a side sleeper but do not find the ends of the pillow at all comfortable to sleep on as they are just too hard and too high, despite the manufacturers recommendation for side sleepers. Instead, I sleep on my side with my head in the center of the pillow and the side of the pillow with the smaller roll under my neck. I no longer wake up with neck pain. Also, I am using a king-sized pillowcase for this pillow (and it just fits) as my regular-sized ones are too small.

After dealing with a sore and stiff neck on and off for months I thought I would gove this pillow a go after reading reviews. I had already been sleeping with a rolled up towel under my neck and a regular pillow which was helping, so this pillow with the raised neck area looked to achieve the same posture without the hassle. I initally started using it every other night, but pain worsened so I tried using it every 4 nights or so. Every night I use it I wake up with a stiff neck and headache. I don't find the pillow uncomfortable, I do like the feeling of it cradling my head. It is very very very firm, so it works well as a lower back support of my pillow pile when I am stilling up reading in bed, but that's all it is good for.
