Choosing a TheraMed pillow or support
Start with the problem, not the pillow. How do you sleep, where does it ache, and where do you sit for longest? The TheraMed range splits into three jobs: pillows for the neck, cushions for sitting, and supports for the legs and back in bed.
Pillows: match the height to how you sleep
Side sleepers need a higher pillow to fill the gap between the ear and the shoulder. The Side Snuggler ($179.99) is shaped for it. Back sleepers usually want a lower, contoured pillow that supports the curve of the neck, like the Tranquillow ($69.99) or the MemoGel Contoured ($134.99).
Not sure of the height? The Sleepezy 2 Zone and 3 Zone ($99.99) let you add or remove layers until it's right. For allergies there's the Allergy Sensitive pillow ($59.99), and for children Their First Pillow ($70.99, from 2 years) and the Naturelle Latex Child ($109.99).
Sitting: tailbone, back and posture
A sore tailbone needs the pressure taken off it, not more padding under it. The Coccyx Tailbone Wedge ($89.99) and Coccyx Diffuser ($129.99) have a cut-out at the back. The Ring Latex Cushion ($99.99) spreads weight around a central hole.
For the lower back in a chair or car seat, try the Back Huggar ($89.99), Contoured Back Support ($99.99) or FloBac ($74.99). The Posture Wedge ($79.99) tilts the pelvis forward so you sit taller.
Legs and positioning in bed
A pillow between the knees keeps hips and spine in line when you sleep on your side. The Leg Spacer ($81.99) does this. Raising the legs helps swollen ankles: the Leg Relaxer ($156.99) and Knee Relaxer ($142.99) lift the lower legs. To raise the upper body, the Contoured Bed Wedge ($281.99) and Adjusta Wedge ($301.99) do it without an adjustable bed.

Common questions
Will a new pillow fix my neck pain?
It can help if the old pillow is the wrong height. Pain that lasts more than a few weeks, or comes with pins and needles, needs a GP or physio first.
Can a bed wedge help with reflux or breathing at night?
Raising the upper body helps some people. Ask your GP whether it suits you, then use a wedge rather than stacking pillows, which bends the neck instead of lifting the chest.
Memory foam, latex or fibre?
Memory foam moulds slowly and feels warm. Latex springs back and stays cooler. Fibre and wool are softer and easier to reshape. Pick the shape first, then the feel.
Not sure which one?
Tell Nadim how you sleep and where it hurts. He'll pick the pillow or cushion that fits.
