More Details

* Fits snugly between the thighs, ensuring the natural curvature of the spine is maintained by minimising twisting of the back during sleep
* Keeps the back aligned during sleep, allowing total muscle relaxation and more restful sleep
* Encourages quality sleep in the preferred side sleeping position
* Helps alleviate light snoring (side sleeping allows soft tissues and the tongue to stay relatively clear of the airway). Enhances breathing
* Designed to discourage both back and stomach sleeping. Smaller front 'bumper' discourages tummy sleeping, while the larger rear 'bumper' inhibits tendency to roll over onto back
* Thighs gently 'hug' Side-Sleeper and help prevent the pillow from slipping away during the night
* Ergonomically angled at 29 degrees to follow the natural form of the legs in the side sleeping position
* To suit smaller physiques, there may be a need to shave the foam to suit the individual (particularly the larger 'bumper'). This can be achieved by using an electric carving knife
* It may take time to adjust to using Side-Sleeper cushion

Structure
* Carved from premium quality foam

Cover
* Fits most pillow slips
* Put small 'bumper' in slip first and then carefully work large 'bumper' in
* Can be used without slip but foam may wear

Cleaning
* Do not wash
