pattie Posted January 12, 2018 Can pillows cause neck pain? I am suffering from severe neck pain for two weeks. I usually use two pillows when I sleep. My mom always warns me not to use pillows as they can cause neck pain. I tried sleeping without them, but it disturbed my sleep. I feel more comfortable while sleeping with pillows. But when I woke up in the morning, I experienced severe neck pain. I visited a nearby clinic. The doctor told that my neck pain is due to poor sleeping posture and he suggested cervical collar for me. I was a bit disappointed hearing that because I don't want to use the cervical collar. I discussed this with my friend and he suggested undergoing chiropractic treatment from chiropractic wellness center in Mississauga. I am planning to visit the clinic soon. Is there anyone here who had undergone similar treatment from the same clinic? How was your experience? Can anyone share what to expect during my first chiropractic visit? Thank you in advance!

KaiTeen Posted January 18 A pillow that doesn't support your head and neck properly can create tension in your neck muscles, and cause neck pain. a Memory Orthopedic Pillow features an ergonomic contour that may suit back and side sleepers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RightNote Posted January 19 A pillow that's too high or too low, or which fails to support the neck itself, can cause pressure to build up as the neck tries to compensate for the lack of support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
