Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 > > I would also like to know which is the best kind of pillow to use? IMHO I don't think that there is a " best " kind. I think there might be a " best " kind for each individual...but these could be different. Unfortunately, I think that trying the different kinds is the only real way to find out. Obviously, I would start with the uidelines on the WACMA page...but you might find that what is right for one, is not for you. I know that I went through several until I found what worked for me....but it is definitely worth it!!! Best wishes, Sally R...ACM..Decompression '91..Hydro ..

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 Hi Everyone! I got a pillow from QVC and it works great! It makes my neck and back feel better when I use it. Here's the address for it: http://www.qvc.com/scripts/reference.pl?ref=L04 & item=F25840 Best Wishes ~Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 I use a super firm pillow from Walmart. I think they are $5 - $10. No one else in my house will use it. It makes their neck hurt. he he he. MINE ALL MINE.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2002 Report Share Posted January 27, 2002 I would like to know what kind of pillows most people prefer. I have never bought anything other than the cheap kind, but i find my pillow bothers me. So what kind does everyone have?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 27, 2002 Report Share Posted January 27, 2002 I would also like to know. I difinatly know what I do not want. This was a long weekend in Australia [Australia Day ] and my hubby thought that he would take me to the beach about50miles north of where we live. the pillows the motel supplied I swear were full of wood chips that you use in your garden. Awful pain woke me at 2.40 this morning. Any advice would be great. warm rgards Ann The Long's wrote: > I would also like to know which is the best kind of pillow to use? > > Hugs, > Loraine > > > hi all. i still use a standard pillow to sleep on. i know this probably > isnt > > helping my situation. i wake up with a stiff neck and back all the time > and > > im usually pretty sore. i need help in finding a good pillow to be using > > unfortunaltey money is an issue. i was wondering about the contour pillows > i > > have seen at wlamart?...has anybody used these or if anybody has any good > > ideas please let me know..im tired of waking up tired and huting. thanks > > > > kim > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
