"The slope keeps your head from rolling out of a stable position. Bringing a reduction of stress in the cervical vertebra and spine. Improving sleep and relieving neck and shoulder pain [and] discomfort rejuvenating your body."

People who have already bought the pillow said it has given them the best night's sleep. Alexis said it has changed their life, they said: "Ever since I’ve got this pillow, I’ve slept like a baby each night. Thankful for this purchase every time I lay my head on the pillow. Too blessed to be stressed, thanks to this pillow. Recommend to anyone with a neck."

Sahara1666 said: "A life changing pillow? Very possibly! I've only had this pillow two nights so far, so will update if anything changes, but do far I am DELIGHTED.

"I suffer from chronic neck and back pain and honestly couldn't remember the last time I got a "good night's sleep". My consultant recommended sleeping on my back which I could never do as I'd wake up stiff and in even more pain than usual...Until I bought this!

"For the past two nights I've slept on my back with no difficulty and woken up in the morning feeling refreshed and rested. I'm not pain free, and I don't think that's possible, but it's definitely reduced. Utterly delighted.

"I debated buying this for a while because it's not cheap and I've used memory foam pillow before and hated them. All I can say is give it a go. I'm finding it hard to believe that something as simple as a pillow can have made such a huge difference to me, and maybe it'll not last, but for now, I'm an extremely happy customer."

However, one person did think that the pillow did not provide them enough support. Lee said: "I am mostly a front sleeper so from that point of view it’s comfortable and therefore I can still use it so it’s not a waste of money but for me it’s not value for money. Unfortunately the lack of robust support for my neck and shoulders has influenced my lower rating."

But KatDem said: "Enables me to sleep better. Wonderful for my neck. I am a side sleeper and it holds my head in a position that prevents my drooling on to the pillow. It would have 5* but the cover is rough." And another advised that they use another standard pillow underneath if you find the Elviros Cervical Contour Memory Foam Orthopaedic Pillow too low on its own.

Alternatively, there is the highly praised Simba Hybrid® Pillow with temperature regulating Stratos technology and customisable height for £87.20 or the Derila Memory Foam Ergonomic Pillow also said to help woth snoring and neck pain for £41.99.
