Therapeutica4 1/4 to 5 1/4" Travel Sleeping Pillow, Petite

I bought this many years ago and didn't like it. (I bought the average one.). In late may of 2024, I had cataract surgery on both eyes. I decided to help keep my head facing the ceiling, I relented and decided to buy another Therapeutica travel pillow - the petite size. It was FABULOUS.My neck and eyes were happy. In fact I now use this as my main every night pillow. I now lie on my side and my very arthritic neck says 'Ah'. Yes it takes a bit of getting use to (be patient!), but I highly recommend it!!!

I absolutely LOVE my full-size Therapeutica pillow so I wanted to get this travel version of the pillow. My Therapeutica pillow at home for every night use is size Petite so I ordered the Petite travel size pillow. The travel pillow version is definitely not as comfortable as the full-size pillow, which I expected. For me (size Petite), the travel pillow doesn't have as much neck support when laying on my back and it doesn't seem to "cradle" my head like the full-size pillow does. The indentation for the head seems more shallow. Flipping the pillow over for a side sleeping position is a little annoying. I am constantly changing my sleeping positions from my sides to my back throughout the night so it is not as convenient as the full-size Therapeutica pillow. But I can't expect it to be the same. It is still much better that not having it at all and having to sleep on a traditional stuffed pillow. Just don't expect it to be as amazing as the full-size Therapeutica pillow, but it is still a must have for traveling!

This pillow is great. I bought this one for traveling. I already have regular size Therapeutica pillow for everyday use. I have a severe Cervical Stenosis on my c4,c5, c6. This is only pillow that helps me sleep at night. 4 stars due to it is not as supportive as the regular Therapeutica pillow and also it is hard to flip over for side sleeping middle of sleep.

The indentation was not deep enough for my comfort in this one or the full-size version. They still pushed my head up.

It supports my weak neck and allows a good nights sleep.
