Question 1

What makes the Side Sleeper Pillow so great?

Accepted Answer

The Eli & Elm Side-Sleeper Pillow is ergonomically designed with a U-shape to cradle the neck, preventing head tilt that leads to neck pain during sleep. The U-shape cutout allows a place for the shoulder to rest, reducing pressure in that region while maintaining a neutral spine.

Is the Side Sleeper Pillow only for Side Sleeping?

While the pillow is optimized for side sleeping, many combination sleepers love it too! The adjustable fill allows you to adjust the pillow to your unique sleeping preference, even if you occasionally roll onto your back.

Question 3

How do I wash my Side Sleeper Pillow?

Accepted Answer

The Eli and Elm Side Sleeper Pillow has a detachable cover that can be machine-washed on cool. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach and spot clean as needed.Do not put fill in washer or dryer.

Question 7

What makes a pillow good for side sleepers?

Accepted Answer

Side sleepers need a higher loft pillow due to the large gap between the head and mattress. An ergonomic shape is recommended as it gives the shoulder room to comfortably sit while supporting the head and neck. Side sleeping puts extra pressure on the shoulder, a good supportive pillow will cushion that pressure preventing stiffness.

Question 8

What pillow height is best for side sleepers?

Accepted Answer

Compared to back or stomach sleepers, side sleepers need a higher loft pillow around 4-6 inches in height. Sleeping on your side creates the largest gap between your head and the bed. When side sleeping the neck angle is much more severe, even the slightest change in loft can cause severe neck pain. This is why it’s important to choose a pillow that offers adjustability by adding or removing fill. The Eli & Elm side sleeper pillow is adjustable with a max loft of 6”.

Question 9

Is memory foam or latex better for side sleepers?

Accepted Answer

Both memory foam and latex pillows are excellent choices for side sleepers. It really comes down to your own personal comfort choice. Side sleepers with sensitive neck pain generally opt for memory foam due to the soft plush nature of foam. The “sinking in” feeling can reduce pressure on sensitive spots in your neck. Latex is a great option for side sleepers that want a firmer pillow that retains shape, sleeps cooler, and offers more support such as those sleepers with broad shoulders.

Question 10

Can a side sleeper pillow help with neck pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The side sleeper pillow is specifically designed to reduce the causes of neck pain by keeping your head and neck properly aligned. The ergonomic design and adjustable loft system makes it easy to customize the pillow specifically for your body. This prevents awkward angles, relieving pressure points that cause strain on the neck.

Question 11

How do I use a side sleeper pillow?

Accepted Answer

Using a side sleeper pillow is easy! Simply lay on your side as you would normally. Place the pillow so the cutout fits snuggly against your shoulder. Center your head and neck on the pillow. Adjust the loft of the pillow as needed for proper spinal alignment. Test for comfort. Your neck should feel relaxed without any restrictions or pressure.
