Best SideSleeping Pillow – Review

 

Our Review Process

Material – Allergies are a big problem for many of people. Companies across many industries including the pillow industry are recognizing this and are upgrading their material to be hypo-allergenic.

Shape and Size – Specifically for side sleepers the shape is very important to maintain proper alignment between the head, neck and shoulders. It’s important to keep the head at a 90 angle to the shoulders. Pillow-makers will offer many different dimensions to accommodate the unique position of side sleeping. They often times will not fit a conventional size pillow case.

Temperature – The cooler the material, the less the pillow retains heat the more comfortable your sleep will be. Researchers who tested pillows for their comfort and support found that pillows that held more heat resulted in greater complaints of unrestful sleep (1).

Pricing – The old adage, “you get what you pay for” unfortunately applies when it comes to picking the right pillow. The demand is high enough for an effective, quality product that prices are reasonable. In fact, I recommend avoiding the cheap options, there just not worth it
