Choose a pillow that provides adequate support


Are you a back sleeper or a stomach sleeper? Are you a side sleeper? The answers to these questions significantly impact the type of pillow you should choose for a good night’s sleep. In a nutshell, a back sleeper should choose a thinner pillow that has a bit of loft or plumpness in the lower part of the pillow, so as to keep your neck supported while sleeping.

Next I decided to do some research and see which are the 3 pillows which have gotten the most reviews on Amazon. The thinking is that often people purchase products and don’t bother to leave a review and only if you are really happy or really unhappy you will take your time to go back to the website and write a review. So the more reviews the more passion and if there are a lot of reviews and the average rating is 4 or above stars that already tends to indicate that these Side Sleeper Pillows are really worth looking at.

A side sleeper should generally choose a firmer pillow that provides adequate support from the head to the shoulder region that stabilizes the spine. Stomach sleepers, on the other hand, should choose a very thin pillow or even no pillow at all, so that the spine will remain in a neutral position while sleeping. Your sleep style is especially important in helping you choose the best pillow.
