Hudson SS63811 Science Of Sleep Side Support Pillow
I have severe arthritis in my neck, shoulders and back. This pillow cradles my shoulder and provides the perfect amount of support for my head. I will never be totally pain free, but this pillow did provide relief. Memory foam is too firm, so this pillow is a wonderful option for me. I realize that a pillow loftiness is a personal preference but this pillow is "just right"! The pillow fits perfectly in my queen allergy sufferer's pillow protector and queen size pillow case.
Pink aero Pediatric Dragon Mask
Picture looks blue, but it is indeed a purple-ish pink. Cute mask that makes the whole process much less anxiety prone. The material the mask is made out of is incredibly think and not as sturdy as other masks used. Be careful when you are cleaning it not to put in the dishwasher -it is too flimsy to handle the high heat even on the top rack.
the actually mask itself works just as well as any mask you'll get from the doctors or hospitals. its smaller which work perfect for babies

This is an adorable mask for a great price that works great! The plastic details on the face of the dragon is pink and the elastic band is purple. My 5 year old loves it! Would buy again in a heartbeat! My favorite feature is that there are NO stickers so it is easy to clean and the eyes don't come off, like the masks with sticker eyes do. The eyes are painted on.Want Pink aero Pediatric Dragon Mask Discount?

Ichill Relaxation Shot Blissful Berry Flavor (2 Fl Oz.) 2 Pack
This is my first time ever trying a relaxation energy shot, given that I normally drink energy shots to give me energy. When I got the Ichill shots in the mail yesterday, I decided I'd take a taste of one of them just to see what it tasted like.. In the "taste department", it was great.. No "medicine like" taste to it what so ever.. Kinda tasted like blueberries sweet blueberries.. I only took a small "sip" (probably about a teaspoon full) and in just a couple of minutes, I was about ready to SLEEP.. I started feeling like sleep was definitely on the horizon. When it was finally convenient for me to sleep a little bit (about three hours after taking that sip of Ichill), I took a nap for about an hour or so.. When I woke up, I felt really good.. No side-effects, no groggy feeling, nothing.. Woke up refreshed and ready to continue on with my business..On another note the seller I bought this from shipped it really quick and I got it significantly quicker than I thought I would, which was definitely great! The transaction, seller and the product all were top-notch and I would definitely buy from this seller again. Not only that, but I WILL definitely be buying more Ichill again later on!
**TEN out of a possible five STAR product, seller, and transaction!**
Thank you!
Mary Green Sleeping Beauty Eye/Sleep Mask
I have a large collection of sleep masks and this one is becoming on of my favorites. I especially like the feel of the 100% silk. The mask blocks out light as well as many of my pricier masks. The shape, color, texture, and embroidery are all pleasing. After buying this mask I bought another one like it.

The material is not real silk, and the overall quality is not that great. Definitely not worth as much as 25 dollars.
Pranamat ECO - Grey Violet & Violet Lotuses
I absolutely LOVE this mat. As other reviewers have written, it does take some getting used to....At first I had to use it with some fabric between my back and the mat. After about a month, I no longer need to, and prefer using the mat without it. I actually look forward to using this every day. If you use it for about 5-10 minutes, it feels energizing, but longer than 15-20 minutes, it's relaxing. I often use it during Savasana at the end of my yoga practice.While there are other less expensive types of this mat available, this one is really the best; the quality is fantastic, the materials are of the highest quality, leading to a better experience. I also own the Shakti Mat TM The Original (Green) which I like for travel, as you can take the foam pad out. I just roll it up and pack it in my suitcase; it's nice for travel, and is better than nothing, but doesn't really compare to the experience of the Pranamat.
I HIGHLY recommend this product. It is well worth the money, and well worth making it a part of your daily routine.

The mat came yesterday. I took it out of the box and was alarmed at how sharp the spikes are. Holy cow... am I supposed to lay my bare back on this? What the heck. I unfolded it on my bed, put on a very thin nightgown, and stretched out on the mat. Much to my surprise, I could barely feel the spikes. So I took off the gown and stretched out with nothing between me and the pokey purple points. The sensation was surprising and overwhelming, but not unpleasant. If any women reading this were teens in the late 60's, you may remember going to bed wearing brush rollers--the feeling is quite similar: prickly and irritating, but not painful. (I guess we were unknowingly stimulating our brains with those rollers back then, eh?)But here's the fun part. I lay there completely focused on the sensations in my back, feeling warmth creep through my body, and a throbbing start in my muscles. It was really weird... but nice. It was relaxing and energizing at the same time. Honestly, it felt a little like having one stiff drink or 1/4 mg of xanax.
After about three minutes or so, I spontaneously started to laugh. I'm not making this up. I don't know if it was because I was expecting the mat to hurt more and it didn't, or if I was laughing AT myself, or if there was no "reason" at all, but just a visceral response to the many tiny pinpoints of sensation. But I lay there laughing off and on for about 10 minutes, probably looking like an absolute lunatic.
Finally I got up and went into the living room. I felt a little chilled and wrapped myself in a big soft throw and sat quietly, not knowing exactly what to make of the experience. The flyer that comes with the mat suggests you cover yourself while lying on it, as you may get cool, and I think I'll do that next time.
Conclusion: My first experience was a good one. I'm glad I bought the mat. I'll report more as I experience it more.
UPDATE. August 25, 2012
I'm practically addicted to this mat. I use it at bedtime when I'm ready to go to sleep. I put it on my bed (not on the floor... for one thing, there are scorpions where I live). When I roll my bare back down on it, I won't deny it IS painful. And for the first 3-5 minutes, it's uncomfortable. But then this relaxation sets in that is so inexplicable and lovely. I sometimes lie on it for 40 minutes or more. I have even dozed off on it. After a while, I peel myself off (and that is a little painful), put on a soft shirt or nightgown, crawl under the covers, and fall asleep almost immediately. I don't use it every night, as the skin on my back needs a day to recover. On nights when I'm restless and can't sleep, I pull it out and it invariably relaxes me. I can't logically say what it is that is so compelling, but I"m hooked.
Usage notes: I do put my head on a pillow and slide the mat under the pillow so that the bottom of the mat reaches no lower than the top of my (excuse the expression) butt crack. Any lower and it's just too painful on the skin for me to tolerate. Sometimes I will bend my knees with my feet flat to increase the pressure of the mat on my lower back... while hitting myself in the head with a hammer-no, just kidding about the hammer.
There you have it: a strange item. I'd never have come across it if not for amazon.
UPDATE: September 3, 2012
I've started using it every day before bed. There, I've confessed.
As I turn down the covers, I tell myself, "Not tonight. You just did it last night," but then I can't help myself.
I put the mat on my bed, put a small travel pillow at the top, position myself at the bottom of the mat (bare back), and roll myself down. The pain is not exactly excruciating... but it's a LOT. I lie there, my mind instantly and happily BLANK because the pain is quite distracting and not conducive to thought.
Then after a while, I just feel warmth on my back and all over my body. I don't care! I'm not ashamed! It's not illegal and it has no calories--why shouldn't I lie on the mat every single night if I want to? After about half an hour, I am completely relaxed... a veritable puddle poured onto a bed of nails. I peel myself up (that hurts a bit), put on a soft nightgown and fall fast asleep.
I'll see about checking into some kind of rehab program...someday...

The Pranamat Eco is a beautiful product, and does exactly what it claims to do. I have not used an ice pack, heating pad, or pain reliever pill since I got my Pranamat Eco! Whenever I feel a twinge in by back, or I'm just sore and tired, I lay on my Pranamat for anywhere from a few minutes to a half hour, and the pain dissipates. That ache in the lower back after mowing the lawn, gone. That stiff neck from sleeping funny, gone. It even relieves pain from places on your body that were not in contact with the mat. This is the BMW of acupressure mats. The materials are top notch and all organic, construction is solid, and it just plain feels great. Don't hesitate. It may hurt a little at first, but the end results are fantastic.Want Pranamat ECO - Grey Violet & Violet Lotuses Discount?
I love the feeling of this prickly mat, but it is about six inches too short for anyone six feet tall or more. I'm just short of six feet in height, with a very long torso. If I have the mat under the back of my head, on a small pillow as suggested by the manufacturer, it does not extend the length of my back. Since the pressure points the mat is meant to stimulate include some in the lumbar region, this lessens the experience. The photos in the instruction booklet show the mat extending from the model's head all the way down to her upper hip. She must be about 5'5". Other than that annoying misrepresentation of the product, I am pleased with the Pranamat. When I started using it I wore a tissue-thin tee shirt. It does take time to get used to the sensation. I'm docking the mat a star because it's too short. This needs to be made in an extra-long size!Save 23% Off

We stock the tea and coffee shelf at our offices every fall with a diverse, eclectic assortment of products for employees to sip on throughout the chilly Utah winter. So far, this blend of teas from the last round purchased from Amazon is disappearing very quickly. Based on usage, we will reorder this product again in the near future!

Alteril Sleep Aid, 60-Count Box
I have found that this product works amazingly well. The two main ingredients in these pills; L-Tryptophan and Melatonin, are both natural sleep aids and when taken in the proper dosages (one pill for me, instead of the recommended two), sleep comes easier and waking up is very pleasant as well. I personally add 5-htp each night, 5-HTP Bulk Powder 10 Grams which is an amazing stress reliever and muscle relaxant by itself but when combined with L-Tryptophan and Melatonin; it becomes the best sleep aid/stress reliever I have ever had, prescriptions included!
First off, I am a long-time devoted Ambien user. I never had any ill effects that many have, and I never needed to increase my dosage for it to be effective. Many failed attempts to quit using it, resulting in many miserable weeks and months that I tried to go without it. I cannot deal with sleep deprivation, and for those of you with young kids, even the weekend is not usually a time to "catch up". I would lie awake until 2-4 am before finally falling asleep. 7 am always came too soon!
After going through cancer last year, I am trying to get to the root of "why" and "what can I do or change" in my life. I am addressing issues as well with hypothyroidism, for which the prescription drug Synthroid has never seemed to change the typical symptoms I experienced, and one of the written side effects of Synthroid is insomnia.
But I digress...Let's just say that after reading the effects of Ambien, which do include cancer I decided to really really really try to sleep without it. I already knew anything with "PM" in it was the same as Benadryl, which wires me, and then I drag the rest of the day. Melatonin did nothing. Didn't really want to mix Jack Daniels with an allergy pill (!).
SO after reading the reviews on Alteril I went to Walmart and bought a box. Took 2 the first two nights, and tried some relaxation/meditation. I even downloaded a "rest peacefully" app on my phone and listened to it! Slept fitfully, but at least I was not lying awake until 4 am. I actually felt better than I expected the whole next 2 days and did not dwell on the sleep. For the next 4 nights I only used 1 tablet, and in addition to the "EFT relaxation tapping" (Google this and decide for yourself, I laughed so hard at first, but I was willing to try ANYTHING!) and listening to the relax app on my phone, I have fallen right to sleep and slept the whole night through. Waking at 7 am without the alarm. For me this is nothing sort of unbelievable! We are on spring break, and I slept later than my 5 year old!
Now, I must tell you: I have recently added taking: Iodoral, magnesium, selenuim to the usual stuff I take (vitamin d3, calcium, coconut oil, and cod-liver oil liquid, multi vitamin). All I can say is these couple of extra things have all added up to me feeling better, happier, and with a sunnier disposition this last week. I have energy that seems to increase during the day, all the way up til bedtime, but I am not having trouble falling asleep. I even had a bunch of chocolate last night and thought I would be doomed. Slept great. Can't believe it!
For those of us who struggle, worry and obsess over sleep/lack of sleep/grouchiness/being tired all the time and don't want to rely on prescriptions to fix everything what have you got to lose? I am just so happy that the first attempt worked. Not a single one of my doctors ever suggested an alternative, or even pointed me in the direction of reading up on cause/effect of medications/minerals/vitamins/diet. My 3 cancer doctors told me just "eat right, low fat, and exercise", that was it. Good luck in your searches for your best personal health, and rest well!

I started having to take sleeping pills 5 months ago my boyfriend starting working very long hours, and would come home and snore. I needed to get to sleep and STAY asleep! I started off with regular ole cheap sleeping pills (Unisom/Nytol) but became worried after reading about the side effects of the chemicals in these pills, so went looking for a natural solution.My first find was SleepMD. Melatonin and valerian are the main ingredients. I had too many strange dreams from the melatonin, and was also still a little tired the next day. It was better than nothing, but was not worth the cost. I don't recommend melatonin for most people. I actually did a research paper on it in college and the horrid nightmares that some people get will counteract restful sleep you may get. Also, this is a little expensive at around 70 cents a pill/dose.
I then encountered Alteril at Wal-Mart and grabbed it. L-tryptophan was listed as a main ingredient, and I KNOW this works on me (hello Thanksgiving turkey!). There is a miniscule amount of melatonin in this product, which made me very happy. The dosage for this product is actually 2 pills, BUT that dosage was actually TOO strong for me... I had too much trouble getting up in the morning, so have since dropped it to 1 pill and it's PERFECT. This brings this down to only 41 cents a pill/dose, much cheaper than SleepMD!
I have also recently tried Dream Water (you can buy from their website) this does NOT work very well and is very expensive at $3.25 per little shot. It's very weak and not worth the money. It also took a long time to work...
Main Points about Alteril:
* This product is stronger than others I've tried... I only need to take 1 pill instead of the recommended 2 pills
* This products WORKS, and works in the time it says it will work (1 hour)!!! The most restful sleep I've ever gotten, and I don't wake up! No bad dreams since the melatonin level is so low. It's the L-tryptophan that makes this product shine
* With 2 pills, was very hard for me to get up out of bed in the mornings. With 1 pill, I'm groggy for maybe 10 minutes after I get up, but then FULL of energy for the remainder of the day
* I love that this is an all-natural sleep aide no fear of becoming addicted or chemical side effects like non-natural sleeping pills are associated with
* I have SOO much more energy and zest each day now... getting better/deeper sleep has changed my entire world, even moreso than eating correctly and exercising have done. I rarely need to drink coffee anymore to wake up in the mornings either!!
This is a wonderful product! I love trying out new consumer products constantly, UNTIL I've found one that works well (which is rare), but I love Alteril and will continue purchasing and recommending it.
Sleep is VERY important, I'd start here first and then move to exercising, it's a simple painless change you can make that will change your life!! From SELF magazine 04/22/2010: "Getting up multiple times during the night is annoying, no doubt, but it might also harm your health. Rising many times before the morning appears to alter the body's natural pain-control mechanisms, contributing to backaches, headaches and muscle soreness, a study in Sleep notes"

I was a little hesitant about buying this...I half expected this to be another scam product that was featured on TV. But, I was tired (no pun intended) of tossing and turning, and didn't want to use prescription pills to get to sleep. This stuff actually works! It says to take 2 pills before you want to sleep, but I usually take 1. I only take it when I can't sleep, so I'm already in bed, but it works pretty quick. I not only fall asleep quickly, but do not wake up during the night. When I wake up, I don't feel groggy or hungover, like I thought I would. By the way, I rarely write reviews, but I saw a few negative reviews on amazon and thought I'd share mine. I don't know if it works for everyone, but it's pretty cheap here so it's worth a shot.Want Alteril Sleep Aid, 60-Count Box Discount?
I tried Alteril to see if I might be able to switch over to something more "natural" than the prescription sleep aid I normally take. So in all fairness, the fact that I normally take something else might have influenced my experience.I took one pill one hour before bedtime, started feeling pretty relaxed and sleepy but didn't fall asleep. Took another pill. Still had trouble sleeping, but eventually fell into a strange, shallow, anxious sleep. I woke up sweating after a couple hours, fell back into this same sleep, woke up again wide awake with an adrenaline rush after 4 hours of sleep. For a product that claims to help you sleep longer and deeper, I found that it had the opposite effect. It also gave me weird, vivid dreams.
It did help me feel relaxed at first, but it significantly impaired my sleep quality, depth and length. I could probably sleep better without any sleep aid than I did with this product.

emWave Personal Stress Reliever
I bought a stress eraser last year and liked it a lot, so I gave it to my son who was stressed out in law school. Instead of replacing it I decided to give EM Wave a try. I think many people have trouble choosing between these two similar items. Maybe I can help. First, I can tell you that both are useful. You probably won't go wrong with either. However, they are quite different and you may prefer one.Stress Eraserstrengths
Stress Eraser provides true biofeedback in the form of a continuous graph that you can influence by changing your breathing or even thinking. If you follow their instructions you can learn to control the graph and doing so you learn to relax. The unit is solid. It is scientifically valid and it seems like it due to the accurate feedback.
Stress Eraserweaknesses
To use the stress eraser you must look at the graph that forms on the unit. I can't see it without my glasses. You must also have your finger in the correct position on the unit. That makes it hard to position the unit so that you can see the graph while lying down. Thus, if you want to use it to help go to sleep it is difficult. Another thing which may be a weakness or a strenght is that it is more or less a one trick pony. No bells and whistles. But it does what it does very well.
EM Wavestrengths
EM wave is more complicated, but not hard to use once you read the instructions. The unit is light weight and has colored lights, which you may like or feel is too much like a toy. I prefer the graph of Stress Eraser if I am using the unit during the day (it is more rapidly responsive and just seems more scientific), but at night trying to go to sleep the EM Wave is better because you don't need to see it very accurately...just follow the blinking lights. Another advantage of EM Wave is that you either put your finger on the unit (like Stress Eraser) or you can attach an ear monitor. The ear unit is great because you don't need to keep your hand on the unit. To use EM Wave thre are three different modes. In the basic mode the unit has a panel of lights that indicates a breathing pattern for you to follow. This pattern is not actual feedback, just a suggested breathing rate (you don't need to spend this much money for that). In the Heart Rate mode (HR)it follows your heart activity similarly to Stress Eraserso this is actual feedback. In either mode there is another light that changes color depending on whether or not you are in "coherence". Essentially I take it to mean that you are relaxed, though they talk about it in New Age speak, so it is unclear to me what exactly it signifies. In the third mode you only see the "coherence" light, which saves batteries and removes all of the distractions. Actually the unit is even more complicated than this, but those are the essentials.
EM Wave Weaknesses
The unit seems flimsy compared to the Stress Eraser. It is unclear exactly what the "coherence" indictor actually indicates. The coherence coach CD is hardly worth watching. The website and other information is a bit non-scientific with all the talk about "heart breathing". All of that new age stuff will work, but depending on your personality you might find it a bit much.
Final comments
OK so it sounds like I like the Stress Eraser more...but actually I find the EM Wave more useful due to my intended use of falling asleep with it. If you use the HR mode on the EM Wave it is more similar to Stress Eraser..real feedback. If you don't wear glasses or don't expect to use the unit while lying down, Stress Eraser is probably better. EM Wave is more interesting, with colored and blinking lights and multiple modes, but it doesn't have the same degree of biofeedback. Nevertheless, EM Wave does give enough biofeedback and if you use it you will learn to relax. Again, both are good...just different.

I'm a Reiki practitoner who meditates, and also deals with anxiety and depression.I have so far been able to use this to effectively and successfully control anxiety, stress, and anger at home or when I'm out. Before I work with Reiki, I can make sure I'm in the proper "zone" to get the most out of it. When I meditate, I can make sure I'm in the proper zone there too. It helps me get to sleep faster, and stay there. I know there's more uses; I'm experimenting as much as possible.
I purchased this to help me work through quitting some nasty anti-depressants. I give it two thumbs up for how much it's helped with that, and 2 big toes up for everything else it's helping me with.
It seemed pricey, but not after I calculated the annual cost of meds and doctor visits, and then thought about the lack of side effects associated with this biofeedback method.
Oh, and it's insanely easy to use, especially if you take the time to read the user's manual and work through the 30-minute (free!) online tutorial. If you're still confused, you can join a free teleclass.
So if I need to use it to, say, control an impending panic attack, I can fire it up and use it immediately no flipping through the manual looking for that set of instructions I thought was "right there, dammit!"
I'm so glad I can finally move on with my life, drug-free.

To be totally honest, I bought the EmWave because it was so much cheaper than the hand-held biofeedback products that I was actually wanting. I was disappointed when I received it because all it does is measure your pulse and breathing rate. What would this prove? The machine has three zones that it tracks. From what I can tell, despite what the instruction booklet says, if your breathing is shallow, the emwave will put you in the lowest zone. If you breathe deeply, the emwave will rate you in one of the two higher zones. The deeper and steadier your breath, the higher your zone. I was really irritated when I found out that's all it was doing. The problem is, I can't keep my irritation because it works. If you do the deep breathing for at least 5 minutes, you will find that your stress level decreases dramatically. I have actually come to work and found voice mails or e-mails waiting for me that have put me at the highest stress levels. If I use the Emwave, I calm back down. Now, the trick is to learn to use it immediately upon receiving the stressful news rather than reacting and then using the machine. ;) Bottom line, I recommend it. It works.Want emWave Personal Stress Reliever Discount?
I have purchsed (and returned) Stress Eraser. I found it annoying. It prompts you to exhale at a beep. As best I could tell, that's all it does. If this is what you want -to moduate breathing for enhanced calm -count to 4 as you breathe in, count to 8 as you breathe out, and -at the end of the exhalation hold for two. Count consistently as fast or as slow as you need to. This will produce better results for you than the Stress Eraser (and it's free).The EmWave is a different technology altogether. It is a biofeedback device, but that is not what makes the technology different. It has an infrared sensor which measures the smoothness of your heart beat (systolic and diastolic). When there is a smooth rhythm, this is called "coherence." When you are in a state of coherence, a huge array of biological benefits kick in. To use the hand-held (a little bigger than a credit card and not as thick as a pack of cards), you use a thumb sensor pad or an earclip.
In an EmWave session, you regulate your breathing and then learn to "breathe through you heart." Once you have done this, you hook onto a positive emotion, and this creates coherence. As you move through differnet levels of coherence, different colored lights are displayed, and different soothing beeps are played.
EmWave is useful for depression, stress, anxiety, pain management, and -most subtly -for learning how to choose what you want to feel in the face of any life circumstance. It gets easier and easier to do with time, and more and more gratifying. This is a world-class device, and the training offered by HeartMath is superb. Their books are the best I've read on depression, anxiety, etc. and I have read dozens on both subjects. This is a powerful and deceptively simple aid. Do take the free training; it'll guide you through the bells and whistles.

Peaceful Sleep Now for Expectant Mothers Cd
I love this CD. The only thing I don't like is the volume at the beginning of the meditation. I like to relax using meditation and end on this one. Sometimes when she comes on (on my MP3), she wakes me up because she does the usual "Hello this is Kerry Tushauff, etc". Other than that, this is a solid purchase. I just flattened all my equalizer settings out and use this as my 'custom' setting for night time listening. This takes the inflection out of any high pitches...Easily fixed :)

I listened to this track for insomnia several years ago...before there was a "Peaceful Sleep Now for ALL". I had terrible insomnia and it worked beautifully for me even though I wasn't pregnant at the time. When the CD said, 'and every movement your baby makes" ... with regards to going deeper rather than being interrupted, I would just think to myself, "My 'baby' is an adult and he can move as much as he likes in his own home while I'm listening here and going deeper to sleep, and it absolutely won't interfere with my sleeping one little bit"!Now, I listen to the Peaceful Sleep Now for ALL nearly nightly so that the cues...taking 3 deep breaths and repeating "peaceful sleep now" each time I exhale, works beautifully even when I don't have the track available to listen! Both tracks are definitely worth the money.

SONA FDA-Cleared Anti-Snore and Mild Sleep Apnea Pillow
I bought this a few months ago and am still using it. The pillow does help keep you sleeping on your side. If sleeping on your side eliminates your snoring, this pillow will help you. If you snore like a mack truck pulling a load of gravel up a hill, this probably will not help you too much. I tried this in conjunction with one of the anti-snore mouthpieces on Amazon and was told that it cut the noise to a dull roar but did not stop the snoring to the point where other people could still sleep in the same room. I think it does help me breathe a bit better at nite and am still using it. The only downside is an occasional sore neck if you sleep on it the wrong way. If you are a "light snorer" and have room in the bed for it, I would definitely suggest you try it. If you can overpower a chainsaw with your snore, you should probably head straight to a CPAP machine.
Given the choice between learning to sleep on my side or wearing a cpap machine for the rest of my sleeping life, I came out and found this turtle-like pillow to help me learn how to safely sleep at night, and bought one. That was two weeks ago. When it arrived, I tried different names for it, "the turtle" "the dove," and finally came up with "the Bump." And so the Bump and I had to become friends.
At first, even knowing I had no choice, I "fought" sleeping with the Bump. I mentally pictured it safely holding me in place, but I still kept trying to turn over in my sleep, and waking up when I couldn't. I must have awakened 20 times or more that first night. The second night was a bit better. And, over the course of two weeks, I finally had my first full night's sleep, waking up once or twice and turning over to my other side, then falling quickly back to sleep.
BUT, even before that first full night, I could tell a difference. I began waking up more alert and aware. I no longer have to take a nap during the day to survive (waking up from the nap even more sleepy and tired). Since the sleep study was able to identify my problem, I know that I am breathing better, sleeping deeper, especially since I am waking up more rested. Even my morning blood sugar has significantly improved.
For those buying this to reduce snoring ... it does that too, by forcing you to lay in the correct position where your throat remains open.
But the primary FDA approval is for Sleep Apnea particularly the kind that I have, positional sleep apnea.
It is designed to train you to sleep on your side, and to help you be comfortable in the correct sleeping position. It takes time to learn to sleep in this position. In my case, it was two weeks to become comfortable all night long, but for some people, it can take up to a full month. So do not purchase this pillow unless you are willing to make that kind of commitment.

This pillow is aaaaamazing. My husband was snoring so much that I had to use ear plugs; those didn't always work. I was ready to sleep in another room just to get a good night sleep. My husband ordered this. It took ahwile to get the pillow. (He was actually ready to go to a retail store to purchase a pillow.) We decided to wait for this one; I am so glad we did. I don't know how it works so well, but it does. I can sleep through the night and not wake up from his snoring. He says that it is comfortable and has no problem sleeping on this pillow. I would recommend to anyone!Read Best Reviews of SONA FDA-Cleared Anti-Snore and Mild Sleep Apnea Pillow Here
This pillow has stopped my snoring, according to my wife. I do seem to be getting better sleep. Had if for 2 weeks now, still adjusting to it.Pros:
Seems to work for snoring.
Seems fairly well made.
Better sleep.
Cons:
Expensive.
You have to sleep with your arm out, under the pillow. It does not work without that. We used to have the bedroom fairly cold at night, under thick blankets. Had to turn the heater in the bedroom up a bit, your arm sticking out will get too cold in the winter.
You have to stick with it, and keep putting yourself in the correct position. It takes a while adjust, I am still getting used to it but I think soon it will be habit.

I am a 5'1" female and snore mild to medium, depending on the day. This pillow greatly reduced my snoring almost every night. However, it takes time to "break in". The pillow is VERY firm at first, but softens up after about a month. It is difficult to get used to if you are a shorter person (neckaches for the first few weeks). However, it is worth it to have stopped snoring completely.Save 46% Off
