How to Properly Fit a Pillow

Getting a pillow to fit you correctly is a process, but when you take the process the pillow you find will support your head, help you sleep better, alleviate neck pain, help your posture, and even stop headaches.  Here are 4 simple steps to take to get the right pillow for your needs:

1. Consider your sleeping position: The first step to finding the right pillow is to consider your sleeping position. If you sleep on your back, you will need a thinner pillow to keep your neck and spine in alignment. If you sleep on your side, you will need a thicker pillow to fill the space between your neck and the mattress.
2. Fill material: Different fill materials, such as down, feather, memory foam, and synthetic fiber, offer different levels of support and comfort. Consider what feels best to you and supports your neck and head in the correct alignment.
3. Size and shape: Make sure the pillow you choose fits the size of your bed and is the right shape for your sleeping position. Standard-sized pillows are good for most people, but if you’re taller or have wider shoulders, you may need a larger pillow.
4. Adjustable height: Some pillows come with an adjustable height option, allowing you to add or remove fill as needed to find the right height for your sleeping position. This can be especially useful if you switch between sleeping positions during the night.

By following these tips, you can find a pillow that provides the right level of support for a good night’s sleep.
