A pillow so ugly that you want to hide it when you visit makes me sleep better than ever. Why I really recommend it to everyone.
Since my childhood, unfortunately, I have had phases of insomnia and difficulty falling asleep. Despite regular exercise, back pain came along at some point. An office job and my father's "bad back" genes just don't go well together. What I mean by that? I know how annoying and frustrating it is not to get to sleep - despite being tired.
After endless research, at some point I came across so-called weight blankets. HERE in the article you can find all the information about it. The short version? While the blanket hasn't completely eliminated my sleep problems, it does help me come down after a long day.
Test: does the comfort pillow help me sleep better?
A search for the perfect sleep continued to this day. My newest test object? The comfort pillow. And I have to admit: When I picked up the parcel, I was shocked at first. It was * huge *. And indeed: with the dimensions of 150 cm x 100 cm, the pillow is not exactly inconspicuous. It feels like it takes up half of my bed. It is shaped like a croissant-shaped nursing pillow.
Before using the comfort pillow for the first time, I was secretly sure that I would send it back … and then … and then I slept in this cozy cocoon for the first time. Honestly? It can't feel more comfortable in the womb. It's like being a little spoon and a big spoon at the same time. Just without the limbs that fell asleep. It is unbelievable.
What else can the comfort pillow do?
The pillow is suitable for people with back, neck and shoulder pain. It supports the head, neck, stomach, hips and knees. It relieves symptoms of arthritis, fibromyalgia and herniated discs and supports blood circulation and circulation. The pillow is suitable for back and side sleepers. The pillow is not suitable for those who sleep on their stomach, but can be used in a sitting position for reading, relaxing or watching TV.
Conclusion
At least I can fully subscribe to the latter. I've been testing the comfort pillow for two months now. Since then I have slept better, deeper and never once woke up tense. My FitBit proves that this is not just my imagination. According to my smartwatch, I've been sleeping more deeply and more restfully since switching to the comfort pillow. And on average 4 percent lower. Reason enough to keep the pillow. In the meantime I have ordered a white replacement cover so that the pillow with its gray cuddly cover no longer stands out. For me as a sleepless person, this is the must-have 2020. The pillow costs 149 euros on a regular basis, but it is currently available for 79 euros. Fair.
