Test your Pillow

Sleeping on the right pillow has a profound effect on how you feel in the morning. One key factor of a good pillow is that it offers enough support and comfort.

It is important to consider the following questions when testing your old pillow to determine if you should consider investing in a new one.

1. Is your pillow more than two years old?
2. Do you wake up with upper back pain and neck stiffness?
3. Do you use more than one pillow at a time?
4. Do you repeatedly change pillows, trying to get comfortable?

If your answer is yes for any of these questions, it's time to replace your old pillow. Your pillow is either worn out or not supporting your neck and spine properly, which ultimately adds up to poor sleep quality. Doctors agree that a good pillow helps put you in a healthy sleep posture. The result when coupled with a Sleep Number® bed is a better night's sleep.

Selecting and sleeping on the pillow that meets your specific comfort and support needs is as important as setting your Sleep Number® bed to your personalized comfort level.
