Is it possible for there to be one pillow that is the most comfortable pillow? No, it is not and we aren’t even going to try. What we have done though is found the pillows with the highest ratings on Amazon together with the best reviews.

Before we launch into our list of the best pillows for neck pain lets take a look at what contour pillows are. One of the most commonly asked questions we get is “do contour pillows help neck pain?” To answer this it is important to understand what a contour pillow is.

Wikipedia defines contour pillows as “A sleep pillow with a curved design that adapts to head, neck and shoulder contour for back sleepers and side sleepers”. Contour pillows are also often referred to as cervical pillows. These are pillows that can help alleviate neck pain in side sleepers, stomach sleepers, and back sleepers and are often amongst the most comfortable pillows.

Now that we have explained contour pillows, let’s take a look at the best pillows on Amazon according to your reviews and ratings.

Barb left a 5-star rating and had this to say “It was very comfortable and my neck stayed in correct alignment all night. I have been using this new pillow for about 2 weeks and I wake up with no neck pain or headache. I would recommend this pillow for anyone that wants a good support pillow.”

Last one from Ryan who claims this pillow is “perfect for side sleepers with neck pain”. He also said “This is by far the best pillow I’ve bought in years.
