Customer Reviews of Core Products * Tri-core Cervical Pillow - Standard
Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
After 3 whiplash injuries and many years of pain and problems followed by many therapies, I went to a chiropractor who recommended these pillows and sold them in the office. I was skeptical especially since I have tried most of the pillows which were recommended over the years and none had ever helped. I had chronic neck pain and stiffness and for the past several years I also had shoulder pain. I have used this pillow for over a year now and must say I have had a huge improvement in my neck and my shoulders and have very little if any pain at all. There was a breaking in period with this pillow, but I continued to use it and within a few days, I loved it. I am currently on Amazon to purchase a new Tri-core cervical pillow since I recently went on vacation and packed my pillow as always but unfortunately, a bottle of perfume leaked and my pillow is too highly fragranced to use any more. I did go back to the same chiropractors office and bought another pillow, but it was a different brand and although it is shaped much the same, it is hard and just not the same. I love my Tri-core pillow and will not use anything else.Customer Review: Not as good as advertised
Summary: 3 Stars
My regular pillow is a contour memory foam pillow. After a neck injury, that pillow started to hurt me so I searched for a better pillow and came across the Tri-core which seemed to be a better solution as I mostly sleep on my side, but also occasionally on my back.
The problem with this pillow is the large indentation in the middle. It's perfect for when you want to sleep on your back, but turning to the side you had better move your head out of the indent and onto the wings of the pillow. Easy enough to do when you are awake, but if you turn during the night, you might not always move out of the indentation. In the morning you end up with a strong ache in your neck as you haven't been positioned correctly.
After trying to get used to the pillow for a week+, I have given up and unfortunately cannot return this pillow. I'm going to go back to a memory foam contour pillow as a better solution since it works better for me.
I have given the pillow three stars.... it is well made and would seem to hold up well, assuming it was comfortable for you.
Customer Review: Best pillows ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
This pillow does take about a week or so to get used to like anything else that's new. My chiropractor suggested this pillow to me a few years ago. I ended up buying one on my second visit to his clinic. I was told I had a military neck, where the curvature isn't quite the norm. I had bad migranes which were caused by tension in the neck area. This pillow made most of the tension and migranes go away. I moved out of country a while back and most of my items went into storage along with my 1st pillow. A few months ago I had surgery on my right shoulder and had trouble sleeping on a regular pillow. I'd given a couple pillows a try and still was aching. Then I remembered this pillow. I went to Amazon to see if they had it since you can find about anything on the site. I ordered it about a month ago and have been sleeping on it since. The shoulder doesn't ache and I get a good nights rest without accidently rolling onto my bad shoulder. I've convinced my physical therapist in buying one too. I've suggested this pillow to many and all that have gotten one love it.Customer Review: No more headaches!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this pillow because after complaining about waking up with headaches 3-4 days per week, I was diagnosed with a straight neck (most people have curved necks). Doctor recommended this pillow and I love it! I am headache free! For those readers who like to sleep on their sides, this pillow works fine. The key is to read the directions on the sheet that comes with the pillow. It says that when sleeping on your side, you should sleep on the edge of the pillow. Don't try to sleep on your side by resting your head in the center of the pillow because that is the concave part and won't give you any support. The only problem I have with this pillow is that the stuffing seems to lose it's form over time, so I have already gone through 2 pillows in 6 months and at $35 per pillow, this can get expensive. As long as I'm headache free, however, I will pay the money! Just wish there was a pillow made out of something that would keep it's shape longer. Maybe next time I order, I will keep the plastic on before I cover with pillow case.Customer Review: This pillow nearly saved my marriage!
Summary: 5 Stars
This pillow nearly saved my marriage! She had packed her tooth brush and hair curler and had one foot out the door when this beauty came in the mail and I convinced her to have one more night together. After a bit of carnal passion, we recoiled to our separate ends of the bed where I found solace in the head-cradling bliss of this wonderful product. In the morning, the wife was flabbergasted. She said she could hardly sleep all night, what with the deafening silence. My ear-splitting snores, which had driven her to the throes of dementia, were silenced at last!
For my part, the vertebrae in my neck which I had crushed years back after hitting a pile of rocks at 60 mph and putting my head partially through the windshield of my tiny, blue Ford Escort while drunk one revelrous, early morning, seemed strangely soothed and elongated. There seemed to even be some space between them! The constant, ringing headache which I had grown accustomed to during my every waking hour seemed to have vanished. Unfortunately, so did the wife.
