Best Pillow for Stomach Sleepers

Stomach sleepers are the rebels of the sleeping world. Most experts agree that sleeping on your stomach (sometimes appropriately called “free falling”) is the position most likely to lead to stiffness or pain in your back or neck. That doesn’t mean you need to shake up your whole sleep routine, though. Purchasing the best pillow can do wonders for your spine without having to sacrifice the cozy comfort of sleeping on your belly.

So what qualities should stomach sleepers look for in a pillow? The softness of the materials used should top your rubric. If you’re sleeping on a subpar pillow, you’ll be waking up with a stiff neck for sure. Luxe Pillow can offer the best pillow for stomach sleepers by taking into account all the unique aspects of this popular sleeping position. These are the qualities stomach sleepers should seek in their pillows:

What is the Best Pillow for Stomach Sleepers?

  • One that balances the right amount of softness and support
  • One that doesn't run hot
  • One that provides structure
  • One that can keep your head and neck aligned throughout the night
  • One that is comfortable in any sleeping position as you move

So Soft

Softness is essential to a stomach sleeper’s pillow. Since you’re placing your spine in a bit of an unnatural position and swiveling your neck, you’ll need all the softness you can get. The Luxe Pillow provides multiple high-quality layers of softness to ease any neck strain caused by sleeping on your stomach. The effects of a pillow that’s too hard can be painful. Without the right level of softness, you’ll spend the whole night with your neck angled upwards.

Quite Airy

An airy pillow is great for most sleepers, and stomach sleepers are no exception. The relative lightness and smooth materials help regulate temperature and keep the pillow from being noisy. All in all, an airy pillow is less likely to wake you up in the middle of the night because your face is overheating or the crinkling of the pillow is assaulting your ears.

Luxe Pillow offers a down-alternative pillow, which is perfect for stomach sleepers. Other materials can be too hard and may lead to neck strain or cramps. The light, airy construction of a down-alternative pillow keeps you from tossing and turning and perfectly cradles the head.

The Right Head position

Perhaps the most important element of a pillow’s quality is how it handles your head. Pillows need to be firm enough to keep your spine aligned as best as possible but also soft enough to be comfortable (nobody is going to be able to fall asleep and stay asleep if they feel like they’re resting their head on a rock. Luxe Pillows gently hold your head in a neutral position, preventing cramps and stiffness.
