Waking up with neck and back pain is more common than you'd think, but that doesn't mean it's something you should deal with forever. Like any muscle strain, leaving this problem unaddressed can do more harm than good in the long run, and sleep experts say that investing in the right pillow can make a world of a difference in how you feel when you wake up.
Specifically, this contoured pillow from popular bedding brand Tempur-Pedic is sleep expert and registered nurse Korina Owen's top recommendation for those trying to remedy neck and back strain from sleep, and right now, it's on sale.

This ergonomic pillow has a unique contoured shape that's formed to follow the natural curve of your body.
This neck pillow comes in three sizes (small, medium and large) and sleep experts say it's one of the best solutions for helping ease neck and back pain.
If you've ever shopped for pillows, especially ones that target certain areas, you already know that they often cost a pretty penny. Along with being on sale, this popular pain-alleviating pick is a favorite among sleep professionals and shoppers, so don't snooze on this deal — the price is sure to go up again.
I recently spoke with three sleep professionals to find the best ways to help remedy back and neck pain since lots of shoppers (myself included) desperately need a solution. Each expert agreed that pillows that contour help most with this issue since they're specifically made to follow the natural curve of your neck and back.
"Contour pillows, with this ergonomic design, seem better to accommodate the natural curvature of the cervical spine, thus offering enhanced support," Dr. Brent Wells, a chiropractor based in Alaska said.
When asked which pillows they professionally recommend, Owen shared that this one from Tempur-Pedic is one of her favorites since it "offers the best spinal alignment, features a contoured design and high-quality memory foam, and thus offers the best neck support for people dealing with neck pain."
According to the brand, the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Ergo Neck Pillow was made to relieve pressure and give each sleeper personalized support throughout the night. Once you wake up, it's supposed to return to its original shape, so you get to reap its full benefits when you use it again that night. This is all thanks to the brand's Tempur material, which allows the pillow to maintain its shape, ensuring that you truly get your money's worth — because nobody has time to keep shelling out cash for new pillows every few months. (Though sleep doctors do say you should be changing your pillows "every one-to-two years.")
Owen isn't the only person who's a fan of this Tempur-Pedic fave. More than 4,000 Amazon shoppers can't say the support of this pillow is nothing short of dreamy. Several gush over how much it's changed the game for them in the neck support department.
Pros 👍
"Great neck support" one five-star reviewer titled her detailed review. "I ordered the medium Tempur-Pedic neck pillow, and it has done the trick! [My] neck is supported. No pain, no headaches. It just takes a minute or two when getting ready to sleep to get situated. ... I'm just happy to wake up without my neck in knots!"
If you're worried that it may be a bit too soft and not supportive enough, this shopper's review should put your concerns at bay. "I am a side sleeper and have been looking for a pillow that supports without being too fluffy or too soft," this shopper explained. "This is exactly what I've been looking for. I like the spring and the rebound on it — with it being supportive and it doesn't lose its shape."
Some shoppers even said they've noticed a difference, instantly — we're talking the next day. "Immediate pain relief in my neck after one night's sleep," this impressed reviewer noted. "There is no smell to the pillow or airing out or fluffing up, period."
Cons 👎
The few critiques shoppers had for this pillow, though, came in its unique shape and size. "I just wish I could find a pillow case that fits them perfectly," one shopper wrote after admitting that it's still "the best pillow I've ever owned."
Another customer who said this pillow is "the best for your neck and back," added, "I do wish it was longer."
