Sleep easy on long journeys thanks to a travel pillow


Whether you’re taking a trip to base camp, visiting a friend on another continent, or just settling down for a long car journey, a travel pillow will help prevent that awful neck and back stiffness that we all associate with such journeys. Besides being just a comfort item, the travel pillow is also ergonomically designed to prevent damage to the vertebrae that can happen in your sleep, without you knowing.

Although many people associate inflatable objects with a breathless fight with the valve, the travel pillow manufacturers have addressed this by ensuring that they are quick and easy to inflate and deflate. After all, you’re going to be stressed out enough with just traveling, the last thing you want is to spend hours trying to inflate your pillow.

Of course if an inflatable travel pillow is not your style, then there are alternatives, usually stuffed with a fiber which compresses for easy storage, and then springs back to its original shape when you unroll the pillow. Some travelers find these to be more comfortable when traveling in an air conditioned vehicle, since the stuffing is warmer than pure air.

The shape of your travel pillow is also important. There are currently two on the market – a U shape and a squarer variety that looks more like a typical pillow. Tests have shown that the more traditional horseshoe pillow can leave your neck open to cold air, and provide less support for the head than other, squarer varieties. In the end, though, it is likely to be down to personal choice.
