Sleep apnea — a disorder in which one’s breathing is interrupted for seconds or minutes at a time during sleep — affects people of all ages, genders and body types. Still, more than 80% of sleep apnea cases remain undiagnosed, as Dr. Indira Gurubhagavatula, a sleep medicine physician and spokesperson for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), previously told HuffPost. If you experience loud, persistent snoring at night (first off, bless your partner), you may be showing a major symptom of sleep apnea.
In addition to helping with sleep apnea and snoring, reviewers say this wedge helped with post-surgery recovery, acid reflux, heartburn and GERD.
This soft, supportive wedge pillow measures 24 x 24 x 7.5 inches, with its shortest side being its raised incline. It has a gel-infused memory foam top perfect for hot nights, yet it’s dense enough to give you the support you need for side or back sleeping. This wedge pillow also comes with its own pillowcase, which is a big win considering it’s such an awkward shape. It also has side pockets for tucking in a phone, book or maybe even a journal. Many report using it on their beds and couches, propping the wedge to elevate their backs or even under their` legs.
