What our happy customers are saying about the Spherehead Pillow

  • I had been in need of a new pillow for quite some time. The pillow I was using was old and needed fluffing constantly. I'd wake in the morning with a stiff neck and achy shoulders. It was impacting my sleep. I have bad shoulders from years of overuse and misuse. I also suffer from whiplash caused in a car accident in 2007. My pillow did nothing but exacerbate these issues.

    I found the Spherehead pillow several months ago. I researched it but didn't buy. I kept coming back to it and finally made the purchase after a couple of months of waffling.

    Their website stated it could take a couple of weeks for the body to adjust to using the pillow. Fortunately for me, it didn't! I woke up the next day with no shoulder pain and no neck pain. I sleep on both sides and my stomach. The pillow allowed for all of these sleeping positions. It is super soft on my head since it has a silky cover and the pillow doesn't get as warm as my other pillows would.

    I've been using the pillow for about a month now, and I can say it is the best pillow I've ever had. It feels amazing to wake up without morning pain. Thanks for creating the Spherehead Pillow. I appreciate your ingenuity.

  • I recently had total hip replacement surgery on my right hip — the same side that I sleep on. So I was very concerned about my ability to sleep on my back or my left side, since I know how critical sleep is to healing. One month and one day before my surgery, I was introduced to Spherehead, and could not be more grateful. I was impressed the moment I opened the package since it did not come with the typical off-gassing of high-VOC products — and as an environmental engineer, this was really important to me.

    When I was in recovery post-surgery, my head was resting in the attached “form.” Incredibly, it mimicked the shape of the Spherehead pillow. Since my surgery was at New England Baptist hospital, I knew I was getting the best care — so I asked about the positioning of my head and neck, and all of the benefits explained to me were aligned with the design and function of the Spherehead pillow. The only difference was the comfort.

    Spherehead was an unexpected gamechanger in terms of my recovery. I was diagnosed with breast cancer 9 years ago and would have given anything to have a pillow like this then, since I also had to try to sleep on my back post-surgery. I highly recommend this pillow — and the covering is functional and carefully thought out, very gentle on the hair and the side of the face. A+!

  • After trying many different pillows that claimed to help alleviate neck pain, I was about to give up. Online I saw an ad for the Spherehead pillow. It looked very different from all the others I had tried. I decided I had nothing to lose so I ordered it and am so glad I did! After a couple of months' use, my morning neck pain has improved dramatically. I had occasion to contact customer service with a question and they responded quickly and were so helpful. Don't let the non-traditional look of the Spherehead pillow keep you from giving it a try!

  • Was skeptical about this pillow initially due to the unique design, but let me tell you, the pillow has been remarkably efficient. It helped me change from being a stomach sleeper to a side and back sleeper, which are much healthier positions!

    The foam density is soft yet shape-retaining like a very expensive memory foam, and the satin cover has been a life changer. It's travel friendly and completely eliminated the thought of carrying a separate travel pillow — I take it to hotels whenever I'm on the road.

    I used to experience neck stiffness quite often, but the discomfort has significantly improved. I'm a physical therapist and this is one of the products I can confidently recommend for my patients. The Spherehead pillow makes a night-and-day difference for sleep posture and overall neck health.

  • The Spherehead Pillow is a one-of-a-kind design, recreating the use of a pillow for a more supportive and effective night's sleep. When they say there is a 7-day adjustment period, they mean it — and once you're past it, you won't be returning to another pillow again.

    As a Physical Therapist, I get asked for the “best pillow” to sleep with, and I was at a loss because I had trialed many myself and wasn't getting the proper support I needed. After using the Spherehead Pillow, I can confidently recommend this to all my patients. It's a great tool for those with stiff necks, thoracic-outlet-type syndromes, headaches, and TMJ issues. We spend 40% of our lives sleeping, and quality rest is our number one recovery tool.

  • I don't suffer from daily neck and shoulder pain, but I have flare-ups from time to time which I haven't noticed since using the Spherehead Pillow. Despite my low pain levels, I often wake up with numbness and tingling throughout my arms secondary to my flexed, out-of-alignment sleeping posture. When using the Spherehead Pillow, I wake up with much less severe numbness and tingling because it supports my neck in a neutral position even when I'm on my side.

  • I've been a side and stomach sleeper my whole life and usually sleep on a standard pillow. During my pregnancy, I had to switch to sleeping on my back and decided to try the Spherehead Pillow. It took about five nights to adjust, but I've found it to be very helpful and I just love its charmeuse pillowcase. Eight months later, I'm still resting on my Spherehead Pillow, particularly while I'm nursing my new baby. I frequently recommend Spherehead to friends, family and co-workers.

  • I was having terrible trouble with my pillow and about to invest in a new down pillow when I heard about the Spherehead Pillow. As a Chiropractor, I was curious because it looked different than any other pillow on the market. I liked it from the first night and have been sleeping comfortably on it for a month now. It's important for people to have a good pillow. I'm very pleased and have already recommended it to several patients who were experiencing sleep issues.

  • The unique design makes it feel like you can turn your head and easily adjust. The scooped-out design is a welcomed component. The memory foam is a nice alternative, and the sleek cover is comfortable and feels like you're using a pillow from home.

  • For a number of years I have had chronic neck pain due to arthritis. Prior to using the Spherehead pillow, I would wake up with intense pain across my occipital ridge. A friend gave me the pillow to try and after three nights I woke up pain free.

    I have continued to use the pillow every night and find that I sleep well and wake up feeling rested and refreshed. I highly recommend it to people with neck discomfort. It will take 3 to 5 nights to adjust to the shape because it is so different from my previous chiropractic or memory foam pillows.

  • I was a little skeptical about the oddly shaped pillow, but after a night or two, I love it. Before Spherehead, I would wake up with my arm numb or my shoulder stiff — I just couldn't get it into the right position. After Spherehead, no more discomfort. I would highly recommend the pillow for anyone having trouble finding a comfortable position to sleep.

  • I've tried other memory foam and down pillows and most didn't work. I was skeptical about trying the Spherehead Pillow at first because I like my head raised, so I sleep on multiple pillows. I tried the Spherehead Pillow flat on the bed with no other pillows and found it was more comfortable — and I'll continue using it. My eight-year-old niece liked it too. We both think it's very comfortable.

  • Over the 43 years I have been a Chiropractic Physician, I have tried more than 20 cervical pillows to see if they were worth my recommendation. I can honestly say the Spherehead Pillow is the first and only one I recommend. My own experience is better sleep quality and less morning stiffness. Nothing works for everyone, but if you try this pillow for at least a week, I'm confident you won't be disappointed.

  • I am a side sleeper, as I have lower back discomfort at times and cannot sleep comfortably on my back. Although I prefer a firmer pillow, memory foam pillows just didn't work for me — until I tried the Spherehead Pillow. After using it every night for the past four months, I now sleep comfortably and soundly on my back as well as my side. It has really been a game changer for me.
