Relax The Back

I used this for pillow for 9 months during my last pregnancy because I suffered from severe acid reflux and this pillow was like a miracle! I was able to sleep laying down rather than sitting up. Very comfy! I highly recommend. (I am a side sleeper and used the pillow sleeping on my side).

I regularly use this wedge for my patients who have acid reflux problems or have COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), and place it directly on the treatment table. When using this wedge as a sleeping aid, it seems to work best for people who sleep on their BACK, and it can be used successfully for SIDE sleeping if the knees are bent with a standard pillow placed between the legs.

I visted the store and tried most of the wedges that were suggested for my reflux. In the store I narrowed the selection down to this one after laying on it for a few minutes. At the store it felt so wonderful and comfortable. When I got home and tried it the first night, it just did not feel right. After about the first hour, I determined it felt hard, and it did not conform to my body. Being a side sleeper, it just did not work for me. I struggled with it for three hours. I finally took it off the bed and got my old two pillows. I tried it unsuccessfully the next two nights, but still no luck. That was about six months ago, and just this week, I thought since I was still having problems with reflux, I would try it again. For two nights, I attempted again. Still very uncomfortable!
I really think if one does not have the memory foam bed, it will not feel like it does in the store. My mattress is about twenty years old and is not foam. I want to use the wedge so badly, but can't buy a mattress that expensive. This has been my honest experience. It just does not conform to the body laying on ones side. I feel like I wasted valuable money.
