Why choose a body pillow?

Body pillows offer a better alternative to a regular pillow as they provide additional support for the back and lumbar, typically not provided by a mattress.

They also provide a great overall, soft, comfortable sleeping experience for those who have a firmer mattress. There are also body pillows specially designed with pregnant women in mind, called maternity pillows.
