Has Anyone Got a Special Neck Pillow? Are They Any Good?
Ask a Question
I have had a really stiff/sore neck for a few weeks and am considering buying a neck support pillow. I am wondering if anyone has experience with them? Do they help?
I have a bamboo pillow,it's like a memory foam pillow and it hasn't lost shape,since I've bought it over a year ago.It's quite firm so it offers support to the head/neck area.You might have pulled a muscle,Epsom baths are helpful,Tiger balm would be great too,offer some relief once applied,hope you feel better soon x
Many thanks nina090976.
I think you’re right, I may have pulled a muscle doing some heavy gardening. I will try the Tiger Balm.
I use a small memory foam pillow on top of my normal pillow to support my neck. Couldn’t live without it
Do you remember where you got it hspexy ? Is it thin? Just a normal memory foam?
gerrykelly25 I bought it when I was out in taiwan, and it was perhaps only £5 or so, so quite cheap but effective. It looks a bit like this one on amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maywind-Orthopedic-Cervical-Washable-Pillowcase/dp/B07XXSW1T8/ref=sr_1_41?dchild=1&keywords=Memory+foam+pillow+small&qid=1592924577&sr=8-41 but obviously this isn’t as cheap. It’s always good to be able to test them out, as some memory foams are duds, as there may be too much give
hspexy thank you for checking this out for me. I’m desperate to find something to ease the pain as it’s stopping me from sleeping. I will take a look now.
gerrykelly25 you’re welcome. I hope you find something that helps soon, as I know how awful it is not to be able to get a good night’s sleep, as well as the pain you have to endure whilst you’re up. I sometimes use my neck massager to help heat and relax the muscles before bed, which often works well
hspexy, I’ve just ordered the one you suggested. Looking forward to trying it
hspexy morning! Just wanted to let you know I’ve had my pillow for a week now. It is really helping as I’m not waking up every hour in pain. Thanks for the recommendation.
gerrykelly25 you’re welcome I’m glad it’s helped. Nothing beats a good night’s sleep
Many thanks for this linby. Just given it a go. Sweating!! It’s uncomfortable but I will keep at it.
Thank you morvenjamieson. I will take a look. I did buy one from Amazon but always open to alternatives
