Choosing the orthopaedic neck pillow for you
Since these pillows provide support to your neck and head while you are sleeping to help reduce pain in your spine and neck, many come in the form of memory foam pillows. They contour to your body, giving you the support that you need where you need it the most and making for an extremely comfortable sleep.
Whether you are going abroad or on a long journey, it can be difficult to get a good night’s sleep. This is why travel neck pillows are a popular choice.

FAQs
Does a neck pillow really work?
Neck pillows provide support when sleeping to ensure that your neck is in the correct position. When your neck is properly aligned as you sleep, you’ll find sleep is much more comfortable, that your rest is improved, and that any neck or back pain you have is reduced.
Is it safe to sleep with a neck pillow?
Yes. Orthopaedic neck pillows have been designed for use when sleeping. They support your body to ensure that your neck and spine are correctly positioned, reducing pain and stress on the joints and muscles.
What is the purpose of a neck pillow?
Memory foam pillows are designed to provide good cervical support to relieve neck pain and improve rest. By aligning and supporting the upper part of the backbone, you will experience a better rest and find that any pain is reduced.
What is the best neck position for sleeping?
Sleeping on your front is one of the worst positions to adopt when sleeping, as this puts strain on your back and neck. While side sleeping is good, sleeping on your back is best. Having a flatter cushion underneath your head means that there will be a straight line from the top of your head and down your spine, reducing strain and stress on the joints.
What is the proper way to use a travel neck pillow?
Travel neck pillows, especially the orthopaedic variety, are excellent for use on planes or trains. However, many find that the best way to use one is to place it so that the gap is at the back of the neck. Your head can rest against the backrest, while the pillow tucks under your chin and the sides of your head to support you even if your head droops.
