  1. 5 Best Body Pillow For Back Pain Buyer Guide 2017

  2. It takes two or three nights of restless sleep because of back pain, ruptured discs, sciatica, and other sleep disorders for you to realize that you need to do something. Most times, all it takes to get your beauty sleep finally is get the best body pillow for back pain.In this post, we focus on everything that has to do with body pillows, and at the end, we offer you our pick for the best body pillow for back pain. • Value Section First things first, there is an overwhelming choice of body pillows in the market today. There are several variations when it comes to the shape, price, and even the materials used. So, how do you choose the best? Here are some important considerations:

  3. The SizeThe size of some pillows allows them to support only specific body parts. The best body pillow should be long enough to support the entire length of the body. However, remember that the longer the pillow, the more the expenses that you will incur. Type of FillingThe filling used in the body pillow determines how firm the pillow is expected to remain after years of use. The filling also determines the comfort, ease of cleaning, air circulation, and if it causes allergic reactions. When it comes to air flow, pure cotton and other synthetic materials work very well, and they remain cool during use. On the other hand, a memory foam pillow is not very good at air circulation.

  4. The design and shapeBody pillow comes in different forms: straight, J-shaped, U-shaped, and C-shaped. Each shape has its unique benefits. Your sleeping habits mostly determine the preference. Straight or U-shaped body pillows are best for who roll and move around while sleeping. U-shaped pillows offer the much needed full body support. However, they take up much of your bed space. C-shaped and J-shaped pillows are best for individuals who want to lie in the same position all night. Your sleeping positionBefore choosing a body pillow, it is crucial that you understand how you sleep. For back-sleepers, thinner pillows are the best options as they will keep your head protected and well secured. For a side-sleeper, a firm pillow will be great as it covers the space between the ear and the shoulders. For those who prefer lying on the stomach, then choose a very flat and thin pillow which will reduce the issues of back pain.

  5. Comfort U Total Body Support PillowJust like the name, the Comfort-U Pillow has a U shape which is excellent because it eliminates the need to keep moving a huge pillow when rolling over. Whether you wish to curl around, lie on your side, or switch positions, the Comfort-U Pillow is there to keep your spine aligned at all time.Comfort-U is an oversize total body support pillow. It is large enough to allow the user to stretch out while offering support on both sides entirely. It is, therefore, the best pillow to prevent tossing and turning during sleep. The entire body stays aligned the whole night, which facilitates a restful sleep. Comfort-U is a back cushion perfect for expectant mothers and people suffering from sleep apnea, migraines, or flu.

  6. ProsThis pillow contains a fusion fiber filling which allows for free air flow to prevent overheating. The fusion fiber also makes Comfort U fluffy, soft, and completely hypoallergenic, for the ultimate comfort of the user.The material prevents flattening, lumping, or clumping of the pillow for the most restful sleep. Also, Comfort-U pillow is easy to maintain. Because the Fusion Fiber is designed to withstand very high temperatures when washing, the pillow dries very fast compared to regular pillows. ConsThe Comfort-U Pillow is colossal, and it only works well with a king size bed. When used with a queen size bed, the pillow could result in some overcrowding, especially for shared beds.

  7. The Snuggle Total Body PillowSnuggle is an L-shaped pillow designed with quality materials that remain firm, and offer the much-needed support that the user needs while sleeping. It is longer than an ordinary body pillow to support the entire body.We loved this total body pillow especially because it is customizable for maximum comfort. It contains shredded memory foam, which the user can either choose to concentrate on a particular section for more support or spread out evenly throughout the pillow. Besides, the memory foam takes up the shape of your head to support the neck when sleeping. You will love the versatility of this pillow as it can also be used as a maternity pillow to support the belly of an expectant mother.

  8. ProsSnuggle body pillow has a non-removable outer case. It is, therefore, machine washable for easier maintenance.The shredded memory foam interior facilitates proper ventilation which prevents overheating and prevents allergic reactions.ConsSome users may feel that the memory foam filling is too firm and thick, and it takes a long time to break it in.

  9. The Angle Pillow –Best pillow for back pain“The Angle” is an excellent pillow whose design is an inspiration from latest medical knowledge and technology. The shape of the pillow also allows use as a pillow for hip pain. It helps diminish hip and back pain while supporting the structure of the spine and lessening the pressure exerted on muscles. The Angle is perfect for individuals suffering from lower-back issues like a hernia, muscles spasms, fatigue, stress, and tension.You will have to experience this lumbar alignment device personally for you actually to appreciate its therapeutic value. The pillow is designed using environmentally safe and high-quality foam enclosed in a hypoallergenic, washable cotton cover.

  10. ProsThe Angle Pillow provides passive traction and a neutral positioning of the lumbar region, and this reduces the pressure and stress on the muscles in the lumbar region. This pillow is very versatile, and it can be used in multiple positions to offer several types of upper body elevations and traction.ConsThe main issue about the Angle Pillow has to be the sizing. It is available in large and small, with no medium sizes. Getting the wrong size could be a cause of more harm than good as this could cut off circulation.

  11. Leachco Back ‘N Belly Memory Foam Body PillowLeachco Back ‘N Body Pillow has unique features aimed at offering maximum support comfort compared to your normal pillow. This pillow contains memory foam, which allows it to provide rigid and adequate support. As such, you can use Leachco Pillow throughout the pregnancy period and much later without losing the original firmness or shape.High-quality, warm, and cozy polyester make this pillow, and it is phthalates, BPA, lead and latex free. It is, therefore, totally safe for human use.

  12. ProsLeachco Pillow memory foam body pillow has a contoured shape that provides maximum comfort and versatility as needed. The shape allows you to use the pillow on either side and it eliminates the need to readjust pillows when turning over. ConsOne thing that we did not like about this pillow is the inner seam which could cause discomfort to the neck and shoulders when sleeping. The good thing is that you can use a different pillow cover to reduce the seam impression.

  13. Comfort-U Total Body Support PillowThere are several body pillows available in the market today. However, the Comfort-U Body Pillow is a go-to, especially during pregnancy.This unique pillow stands out mainly because of the U-shape design. Therefore, the pillow not only provides support for the spine area, but it also inclines the knees and ankles to support the pelvis and belly too. It acts as a cushion for back pain. How great is it to have a pillow that provides total support for the entire body.The Comfort-U Body Pillow has a length of 11 feet when extended, while each leg is 10.5” wide and five and a half feet long when the pillow folded in half. For this reason, Comfort-U Pillow provides the much-needed support and comfort for the front and back for a restful sleep.

  14. ProsThe Connect-U Body Pillow has an attached cover which makes it machine washable. You can adjust the pillow to different sleeping positions easily. The pillow is great because it offers full support for the entire body.ConsWe noticed that the pillow cover is not of superb quality, and it starts peeling off with time.
