As a physical therapist who suffers from neck pain, this is the ONLY pillow that I can use without waking up to having cervical muscle spasms in the mornings. This pillow is great for people who do not have the normal curvature of the cervical spine a.k.a.-- straight necks (cervical arthritis etc).
I bought one 3 years ago at CVS & have been looking for a year now for a replacement since mine cannot support my neck very well anymore. It has been a week that I have been waking up to neck spasms & I am delighted to find that it is here at Amazon. It was here all along, I just have been typing in the wrong name-- cervical pillow, cervical roll, neck roll etc.... I am happy that I remembered what my 5 year old son called it-- BONE, typed it, and boy was he right.

I took this pillow with me on my 16 hour flight to New Zealand and 2 weeks driving around the country. All I can say is this pillow rocks my socks. It is not confining like a U-shaped pillow, where your head is locked in one position. This pillow lets you lean which ever way you want but at the same time supports your neck and keeps your head from flopping around. I let my friends use the pillow to nap as we were driving through a mountain pass and they raved about how their head never slid around even as we were driving through windy roads. Definite must buy if you travel a lot.

I really love this pillow. I am a shorter person with a small frame, so I thought it might be too big of a neck pillow for me. But its design seems to accomodate people of all shapes and sizes.

I have been using it most nights as my primary pillow, after a few weeks when I changed the case I have over it, the seam at one end had started to pop. It was a 5 minute fix job, I just restitched the open part and re-inforced some of the stitching around it. Now it is a happy pillow again.

I use this every night ... it offers fantastic neck support. It's perfectly shaped to support the neck while sleeping on your back. I am definitely picking up a few more. It breathes, unlike memory foam, so you don't sweat all night. This pillow is the best!

I lost my original Dogbone pillow while traveling so I bought this one and a blue one. They are great for people suffering from spinal stenosis because they keep your neck straighter. Being flared at the ends helps to keep your head more stable. The soft but firm padding is very comfortable. They're easy to keep clean. Just toss in the washer/dryer with other clothes. I can't live without one of these!

I can't say enough good things about this pillow! It gently cradles your head, allowing you to sleep peacefully. No more tossing and turning!! Now I don't wake up with a "crick" in my neck or with back pain. I don't know why it works...but I'm certainly a convert to DogBones Neck Pillows! A bonus: They can also be machine washed and dried!

My wife's 5'2" and it's PERFECT for her on airplanes. Very comfortable, she says.

But I'm 6'1 and it's not very good for me. The airplanes come with "headrests" that protrude from the seat already, so using the Neckbones makes my head feel too far forward.

...until I got this pillow. Besides the arthritis in my neck, there is an undiagnosed problem. Living with chronic pain is bad, and New England winters don't help. I bought this pillow during the December sale, with credit I'd gotten from my Amazon Visa points. Let me tell you: even on a limited budget, this pillow would have been worth a cash expense. My neck still hurts but it's NOT WORSE WHEN I WAKE UP (which is quite often).

I blogged about it and a friend added TWO to his wish list. I love the relief from the Dogbones Chiropractic pillow so much that I bought him one from his wishlist. I'm going to suggest that my internist and pain doctor recommend these, and I'll suggest that my chiropractor carry them. Any decrease in pain, at this point, is AMAZING, and I'm waking up happier. I wish I'd gotten this product sooner.

This pillow looks simple enough, but there must have been a lot of research put into inventing it! The DogBone (medium size, about 16"w--i don't remember specific dimensions) instantly relieved many aches i had in my neck without forcing me to lie down in a flat position (which often gives me a headache and makes it impossible to read while lying down). I'd been to the doc quite a few times for the back/neck problems i've had lately, but no Rx worked quite as well as this delightful cushion. My only issues with it are cleaning (stuffing's packed very tight, so i'd rather not try it out in the washer for fear of mold/mildew; i spray it with disinfectant every once in a while instead) & the outer material (an optional moisture-wicking or allergen-reducing pillowcase would be nice). However, I bought it based on earlier reviews, and I don't regret it.

I overheard a flight attendant raving about the Neckbones and also saw it reviewed highly in Shape magazine. I still have not tried it in the car or on a flight, but am excited to. It does feel comfortable, though is bigger than expected, so pay attention to the dimensions before you buy.
