Waking Up With a Stiff Neck, a Dry Mouth, or a Partner Who Says You Snore? Check Your Pillow.

Why your pillow might be the problem, and the ergonomic pillow a lot of people are switching to.

Most of us replace our phone every few years and keep the same pillow for a decade. But a flat or overstuffed pillow can push your head forward or tilt it to one side all night. Your neck muscles stay tense, and for many people the airway gets pinched, which can mean more snoring, a dry mouth, and waking up stiff and tired.

That's the idea behind ergonomic pillows: keep your head and neck in a natural line, so your muscles can relax and your airway stays more open.

The one we looked at: Derila Ergo

  • Works for back and side sleepers, and there's room to rest your arms underneath.
  • Breathable foam designed to stay cooler than a regular pillow.
  • Removable, washable cover.

What we liked

  • Keeps head and neck aligned in more than one position
  • Firm-but-soft memory foam that holds its shape
  • Simple fix: no gadgets, no routine to learn

What to consider

  • The shape takes a few nights to get used to
  • Stomach sleepers may prefer a flatter pillow
  • It's a pillow, not a medical device; it won't fix every sleep problem

Quick questions

Will it stop my snoring?
It can help when snoring comes from your head and neck position at night, but snoring has many causes. If you've been told you stop breathing in your sleep, talk to your doctor and don't stop any treatment you've been prescribed.
