"I need a soft soft pillow - but i still want support in my neck- nothing too firm". This article is about that someone who just wants a gentle supportive neck pillow. A neck pillow with some "give" to it. Not hard like a rock. You would think that there are lots of choices out there for this. But no, this is not the case. Gentler often just means no support or a FLAT - especially when it comes to a fiber neck pillow.
This can mean the senior by the way. I didn't really come out and say that because everyone is so different. Some like a firm pillow, some like a soft one.
But you must know that as you get older there is a greater chance of arthritis building or degeneration building up. If you have suffered from a whiplash injury due to a car accident, you may have had degeneration in your cervical spine for many years. Any type of degenerative changes in the neck can mean more pain and a decreased range of motion.
The Natural Alignment Pillow may fit your needs. First, it's very gentle. This works very well with the more sensitive neck, being softer and a lesser height than most.
Next, it's fairly low (meaning the height or profile is less). This can work very well for someone with, not only a more sensitive neck, but a more arthritic neck too.
Lastly, this may fit someone of smaller stature too. Neck pillows often end up being too high for the smaller framed person.
