I get really bad headaches everyday and I think it is from using a pillow that doesn't support my neck and head enough...buying one is so hard because oyu don't know if it's comfy until you use it all night. Does anyone have a tip on how to find a good pillow, what should I look for!!!

Thanks so much!

My wife swears by the thing that is filled with buckwheat hulls. It conforms to your head and never gets hot. My personal recommendation would be for genuine goose-down filled, none of that synthetic foam or fiber for me. You can shift the contents around to suit your head and neck at any time during the night.

Here are some sites with advice on choosing a pillow. It seems that your sleeping position affects the type you need, which is something I never knew!

How to Choose Pillows

I'm certainly no medical expert, but are you sure that the headaches are caused by your pillow? Have you had a vision test recently? Do you have problems with your sinus? Sinus headache. Could the headaches be caused by stress? The most common reason for headaches is said to be stress and muscle tension. This website explains how to massage away a stress headache rather than taking medication.

Wow, thanks for all the info!!

Karrow, I never knew so much thought went into choosing a pillow. I do have sinus headaches a lot, but I have noticed that when I have a tiny headache..if I lay down it seems to get worse...and the base pain seems to be at the top of my neck where that little hollow is where it meets the head...I think it has to do with my pillow, although I could be totally wrong!! Thanks again guys!!!
