Should Side Sleepers Use A Body Pillow

While body pillows are a great option for many people, they're not for everyone. If you're uncomfortable with the feel of a pillow, or if you have neck or back problems, you may not be able to use one safely or effectively. Additionally, body pillows can be expensive if you choose to buy them individually, so it's important to weigh the benefits against the costs before making a purchase.
