If you sleep on your stomach:
Try a soft, thin pillow -- or none at all. Anything too
large will throw your neck out of alignment. Caution: Some doctors
warn against sleeping on the stomach since it curves your back too
much and can irritate your neck.
Bonus tip!
Make your pillow last longer by fluffing it every morning
and using a pillow protector or cover inside the pillowcase to
shield it from dirt and dust. Replace your pillow if it's lumpy,
flat or stained, has a bad odor or if the fill is leaking.
