The idea of these pillows is to keep the head and neck aligned so that the back of the throat is open and the airway doesn’t collapse – that’s what gives the snoring noise.
Whether an anti snoring pillow will work for you will depend on the cause of your snoring – whether it comes from the nose or from the back of the throat/upper airway. But even if a pillow isn’t the complete answer, for an upper airway problem, an anti snoring mouthpiece or device might help as well.
- The Brookstone Anti Snoring Pillow is made of 3 support pads that allow you to adjust the height so that it’s comfortable for you and your head and neck are properly supported and aligned. It’s made from memory foam and the makers say it’s been clinically tested to reduce snoring. It allows the sleeper to lie on their back or side.
Reviews for the Brookstone seemed to be more negative than positive. Many complained that the $100 price tag was too high when they found it didn’t work and it is not returnable or refundable. Also, reviewers said there was a strong chemical smell to the pillow, which they didn’t like.
On the positive side, John in San Francisco on whatcausessnoring.net, says it ‘takes some getting used to…but I feel refreshed, well slept and my wife is very happy’.
- The Obus Forme Anti Snore Pillow is also made from memory foam but encourages the snorer to turn onto his/her side in order to align the head and throat.
There were more positive than negative reviews for this, over all. zhanna timush says on sleeprequired.com – ‘This anti snore pillow works great for me…after some getting used to.’ And another reviewer says ‘it was the best $50 that I’ve ever spent. Not only did it stop my snoring, but it was more comfortable than any pillow I had ever slept on!’
