Bed Pillow Recommendation

Post by sbriggs » Tue Jan 20, 2009 4:20 pm

Hello,
New to CPAPTalk.com. I am having trouble finding a bed pillow that works with a nose pillow mask. I sleep on my side most of the time. Occasionally on my back. Any suggestions for pillow types or web sites that specialize in pillows for cpap users? Thanks

While i can't vouch for any of them, i've read quite a few of their reviews.

If you have a COSTCO in your area they have a 2 pack of pillows by Sleep Innovations, is is really soft and squishy and you can fit it into any configuration you need, and they are machine washable and dryable. I sleep on my side and stomach and they are great because the air from the diffuser never makes contact with the pillow. If you don't have a COSTCO you can try googling them.
Good luck

sbriggs,

Here are few recommendations. (1) You can quickly turn your favorite pillow into a cpap pillow by taking masking tape and taping the ends and corners into a firm fit. (2) Some people prefer the memory foam pillow. (3) Target has a "Shapeable Pillow" for about $25.00 that will stay in the configuration that you shape it. (4) cpap.com and others sell a horseshoe shaped pillow, know as the Papillow" for about $60.00. The Papillow is my favorite.

This has been my pillow of choice......long before I started therapy, too.

therapeutica pillow is the best that I have tried....and boy I have tried a lot....I never go anywhere without it now. I believe cpap.com carries it. great for side and back sleepers.
