LARGE Bed Wedge Raised Pillow Acid Reflux GERD Memory Foam Back OL9

Due to my body being like a thing possessed at night time, being a lady of a certain age (hot flushes, etc) and living with long term post-spinal surgery issues and Fibromyalgia, I have been trying to move into a separate bed in the spare room (to give my OH the opportunity to get some sleep without all my disturbances). After almost 5 years of spending most nights sleeping on the recliner sofa, I really needed to get my body used to sleeping in a bed again. The bed is comfy enough with a decent mattress/frame etc but I was waking up with horrible neck, back and hip pains (more than is usual for me) so I bought this Bed Wedge to see if it would help. Well, it certainly has! I only wish I had bought this years ago!!!!! This Orthologics Large Bed Wedge is well made, supportive (I'm a big lass and it takes my weight and chunkiness with ease). It's wide enough for me to 'find my place' on it without feeling like I'm running out of space and long enough to support me right down from my head to my waist (I'm 5'9) which I'm impressed with. I do sleep best in a strange almost on my side position (propped up behind by a big shredded memory foam body pillow) but this bed wedge has been a total game changer. Within approx. 10 days I am waking up with much less pain and my "first thing" mobility is a little easier because of it. The price point of this bed-wedge is spot on and it doesn't move around (unless you really want it to) once you've got into your comfy position. It stays put if I roll over in the night and doesn't make me feel overly hot (another big consideration for me!) Anyone who suffers similar ills to me will know just what an "art form" it is to get things "just right" in bed so I am very pleased that this bed wedge is helping me to get comfortable and is helping me to sleep back in a bed again! Thank you Orthologics!!!!

This is very good for providing some relief from reflux or GERD etc without needing to prop the bed up & annoy your partner. I’m 5ft3 & I feel the wedge is meant for taller people but using the wedge is better than using car axle stands! I have been suffering horribly recently, despite changing my diet & medication, with a storm of GERD symptoms, many of which - I now realise - I’ve had for years, including loss of balance, tooth decay & enamel erosion, as well as feeling of lumps in chest & throat, hoarseness, cough, clearing throat, tiredness, difficulty speaking/swallowing/breathing, and I do feel this wedge is a good tool in my armoury to fight my way back to good health. Update: In conjunction with dietary changes (for me, already on a limited diet, it meant cutting right down on fat, alcohol, sugar, tomatoes, vinegar & citrus, all of which were staples in my diet) & daily lansoprazole, I’ve become much more stable over 6-8wks and now have much more energy, improved balance, am sleeping better, have much less pressure in my chest & throat, and have reduced other symptoms. For anyone else suffering with reflux, cut down on your food intake, especially on your dinner & try not to eat after 7pm. The wedge has proved to be a godsend, would just like to be able to sleep on all of it rather than 2/3!! In itself, this is a very good wedge, no reduction in plumpness at all with use. I cover it with a sheet, using it on top of the bedsheet so I can remove it easily, but if you get a larger bedsheet, you can cover it that way & ive heard some people put it under the mattress. It’s good value for money, comes in quite a small bag but expands once you struggle it out of there. If you put a pillow under your knees, or between them if you sleep on your side, you don’t wriggle down the bed & off the wedge. My health has improved so much that I’m now largely managing my symptoms with diet & lifestyle management - I’ve taken lansoprazole once in the last month because of nausea. I’ve read dozens (over 50) of books on digestive & dietary health issues, out of all of them I recommend reading one of George Jelineks books on diet (his is for MS but it applies, in the main part, to everyone more generally), The Gut Makeover Diet by Hyde (my bible), The Gut Gealth Diet Plan by Bailey (worked with Hyde, another bible), Spent by Lipman (wish I’d had it years ago when I first became ill), Oh Sugar by Bassford (no one needs refined sugar), Why People Don’t Heal & How They Can by Myss (to take responsibility for yourself & what you’re chucking in your gob), How Not To Die by Greger (the book the medics use but don’t expect the rest of us to stick to). I keep going back to all of them as habits are hard to break and hard to establish. I take a host of supplements as a result of these books, I also use a step at the toilet specifically designed to aid pooing - avoiding straining, fissures, pain, discomfort, piles - I don’t know how to do links but it comes up as a best seller for around ten pounds under toiletting stool, it helps if you have issues. Also, ladies, if you have to watch out for tight waistbands, look at your bras - I recommend soft maternity bras so there’s no pressure on your torso from your clothes. Re waistbands, I use button extenders as well as having a change of clothes at hand. Good luck! Update: 2 years of nightly use & no change in plumpness, very impressed with it Update: 3 yrs in, still fine

Very comfortable and well made wedges. I bought two and have put them both inside a spare single duvet cover to keep them clean as I use them as one unit on a 4'6" mattress. It is a tight sqeeze to get two into the single cover but they will fit and it keeps them tightly together so they don't move around and the cover keeps them clean. I then place them under the top sheet which seems to work ok (but I do have the extra deep fitted sheets). When placed on the bed there is a approxomately an inch and a half on either side of the wedge. I haven't tried putting them under the mattress as I am worried in case they make a 'bend' or 'ridge' in the mattress, tho they probably wouldn't - but I don't know?! If you sleep on your back you will likely find them very comfortable, I am a side sleeper and they take a bit of getting used to but great when lying on my back reading as they are so comfortable. The only thing I've found is that I do tend to slide down the bed somewhat during the night and although it's no great problem I'm not sure at this point if that's any good for my back due to the angle. I think they do help with reflux, paticularly if you stay higher up on them. Overall I'm happy with them - oh a word of warning tho - you have to fight to get them out of the packaging!! The only reason I dropped a star was because of my sliding down on them (and my duvet tends to follow - but that is a personal thing and may just be me!

Very pleased with this. Have been using it about a month and it has helped my reflux a lot. It is nice and long, and soft and comfortable.

Right I’ve given this 5 stars as it works but I’m torn between using it and not using it, let me explain more. I’ve been suffering with Laryngopharyngeal Reflux For several months, an endoscopy revealed a 2cm sliding Hiatus Hernia and my consultant suggested one of these pillows along with a series of other measures. Now I’m extremely fussy when it comes to my pillow, it took me ages in finding the right kind of dunlopillo and I’m a side sleeper, I like to fall asleep with one hand under my pillow, elbow out on my side. The other measures suggested looked easier to implement than changing to a wedge pillow so I tried them first but my symptoms would not go away so in came the wedge pillow. My first nights sleep was awful, but I knew I’d have to persevere with this. One month on my sleep has improved but it’s still not great BUT my symptoms are improving. I’ve given this 5 stars because it works and I’ll detail the things I’m trying to overcome... I can sleep when it’s cold, when it’s hot I have trouble, this wedge makes you warm, it retains heat. If you sleep on your back it feels more comfortable than if you sleep on your side, it is quite a firm feeling. I put my normal pillow on top of this and it helps but I find I wake in the night having slid half way down the wedge. I wake most mornings with a bit of stiffness in my neck, I’m putting that down to the wedge and my normal pillow being the wrong combination for side sleeping. My sleeping posture with an elbow under my pillow has to change, my elbow hangs over the side of the wedge unsupported and it doesn’t feel comfortable, if your bed is wide enough you can overcome this by placing another standard pillow next to it to support your elbow. It’s a bit like taking a nasty medicine, the medicine works and cures you but the taste isn’t nice. This pillow works but you’ll need to change and adapt your sleeping habits unless you sleep on your back. If you’re fussy with your pillow you’re going to have a hell of a job getting used to sleeping with a wedge but it will stop the nighttime acid reflux.

Nice product but the pictures are deceiving. The people in the pictures must be tiny, or the pillows in the picture are bigger. I got the extra large one but it's too narrow to sleep on. Turn over and you're off the pillow. Need wider sizes.

Having been recommended a wedge pillow for my wife due to acid reflux she suffered during sleeping, we decided to buy two, as I also suffer from acid reflux. I also wake at times to find I have drooled in my sleep (probably due to the acid reflux). The pillows arrived swiftly and well packaged. Unrolling them they quickly assumed the wedge shape seen in the pictures. Sadly my wife is finding hers a bit of a challenge due to recent warm temperatures and the fact they have memory foam. I, however, have been delighted by the results of using mine. I no longer wake up with drool on the pillows, my acid reflux has pretty much gone and I no longer snore (another night time ailment!!). Once the weather cools down I hope my wife can start to experience the benefits of hers but I would heartily recommend this if you suffer from acid reflux, snoring or drooling. I have also slept more soundly which can only be an added bonus as I work nights so my sleep pattern is irregular to say the least!! The wedges are sturdy and comfortable. Perhaps they could be slightly wider but I have to say I sleep without tossing and turning now so the width is actually okay. My wife has always been a restless sleeper and this may be the reason she is not getting the benefits I do as she probably rolls off the wedge as she turns over. On nights when I am working I suggested she put the two wedges together to give her more space and I hope she will try this soon. A good solid product. Delivered quickly. Well packaged. Very satisfied!

Having started to suffer from reflux (LPR in particular) I decided to try out this wedge after we had already raised our bed using wooden blocks. Raising the bed was ok, apart from my wife would often slide down it during the night. I would also find my feet hanging out the other side in the morning, something had to change..! We reduced the amount that we raised the bed and then I bought one of these wedges. I chose this wedge due to its overall size, in particular the length. This length means that the 20cm height at its greatest point is gradually attained whilst inclining you upwards from the waist to the head. For me this has meant that my upper body is not at an acute angle, no stiff neck in the morning, and I am less likely to slide down the bed during the night. It is early days yet to see how effective that this wedge will be to help with reflux and would be only part of the solution - both dietary changes and the use of Peptac, rather than PPI's, being explored. You could not expect this wedge alone to be the all in one solution to your reflux issues. How durable and how well it maintains its shape has yet to be seen. Overall I am impressed as my initial findings of a good night sleep and minimal sliding is pretty positive. In fact I then ordered one for my wife and so they are now placed side by side. It would be useful if the seller also sold replacement covers at a reasonable price, as they will need to be unzipped and washed. When we first received this wedge it came rolled up inside a plastic carrying case. We wondered if it would ever resemble the photos we have sen on the advert. However unwrapping it and then leaving it to adjust itself, without any use, for a full day it was fine to use. I hope that this review has helped you and the very best wishes if you decided to purchase one. Recommend
