The Benefits of a Comfy Body Pillow

For most of my life I've slept on a "normal" pillow so to speak.
A pillow that does the job in terms of being there.
A form of comfort that growing up was never something I contemplated about or possibly lost sleep over.
I played sports much of my life and muscle recovery didn't play much of a role by the following day.
My young bones recovered easily and fast.
As I grew older, now in my mid 20's, being comfortable is something I look forward to.
I'm still an overly active guy and working out is part of my daily regiment, as is having a good night's rest so I can do it again the next day.
I've lost touch with my "normal" pillow that I've become accustomed to over the years and recently invested in a body pillow.
WOW, the difference is remarkable in terms of comfort.
I wish I could take it with me to work, but I guess it would lead to a drastic increase in me being unproductive.
A regular pillow is not manufactured to shape our body, but the bed itself.
I can't find four pillows that can support my body consistently as I toss and turn throughout the night.
With my body pillow, I'm able to sleep and maneuver into different positions throughout the night and my pillow cradles to my body in every motion creating the ultimate support and comfort.
I can't possibly imagine going back to using a standard pillow.
The main benefit of a comfy body pillow is to provide great support to the hips and shoulders evenly which allows the spine to stay in its proper alignment which enables you to eliminate repositioning through the night and reduce cramps that are commonly associated with a bad night's rest.
With a standard pillow, my neck was most prone to waking up with stiffness.
With a comfy body pillow, my head, neck, shoulders, arms, chest, hips, thighs, and knees are ALL supported and cradled in comfort.
Not only does a body pillow promote proper spinal alignment, muscle relaxation, and healthier circulation throughout the body but they are also manufactured to be ideal for pregnancy support and nursing for pregnant women or new mothers.
From what I've heard, a body pillow replaces the husband or boyfriend throughout a woman's pregnancy and without a body pillow, a bad night's sleep occurs frequently.
Body pillows are perfect for all ages, shapes, and sizes!
