I Tested Two to Find Out"},"content":{"rendered":"

I spent years sleeping on a pillow setup that only worked for about an hour at a time. I’d pile two or three pillows into a loose V-shaped stack, so my shoulder had somewhere to go and my head felt supported. I’d drift off, then wake up half-asleep, arm tingling, shoulder jammed, neck aching, and totally annoyed that I’d have to rebuild my pillow structure.<\/p>\n

If you sleep on your side (or know what T. rex arms are), you probably know the cycle.<\/p>\n

I didn’t realize how much of my nightly struggle was caused by the shape of my pillow until I tested two crescent-shaped pillows designed especially for side sleepers<\/a>. One of them completely changed my sleep. The other came close, but wasn’t quite right for me.<\/p>\n
