I am confused, some users state it relaxes them to sleep and others say it gives them energy??? Also, does the pillow also have the accupunction?

I think it depends on the person. For me... I fall asleep on it! It gives me a warm sensation and I find it very relaxing. I have not used it during the day to see if it gives me energy. I bought it to help relax. Yes, the pillow also has the acupressure nodes. They feel great on the neck and top of shoulders.

There are three people in my family including myself using this before bed and it relaxes us so much we end up falling asleep for about 30 minutes okn it. Never used it in the day time but I'm sure the blood flow produces more energy throughout the day. Pillow does have accupunction and works great.

You can sleep on it. I never have though. When sitting or laying back on a chair I use it on my back and legs, hips.I wrap it around my leg and hip as much as I can. I have not felt this good in a long time. I also using a vibrating massage belt.

No to the contrary it gives u a lot of ENERGY - my sleep has not changed i am a good sleeper-- and it does not make me sleepy and is not for sleep.... I take it in my morning water cup after coffee then second dose after work in the evenings...

It has helped my back (which I have had problems with for 40 years) and my ability to breath tremendously. I still have to use a neck pillow but it does seem to feel better since I've been elevating it. Remember, this is a high wedge and you do sleep at a pretty high angle.

It doesn't seem to make me sleepy. I would not use as a sleep aid. On the other hand, it does not keep me awake

Hi Cathryn - Sorry for the delay in my response. No, I don't feel any cooling sensation from the pillow BUT I do love it. It's hard to tell cuz I have my ceiling fan on high and a floor fan blowing in my face :-)

I do not feel that this supplement makes you sleepy- but it does give you that emotion-less feeling, like extreme relaxation... I hope that makes sense, and I hope this was helpful:)

I was using it to help fall asleep at night because it is non habit-forming. So, yes, it is drowsy inducing, NOT non-drowsy.

I have never had a water pillow before so I cant comment on the different brands and can only say that I find it great to sleep on, I fill mine to capacity whilst my husband prefers to 3/4 fill his. I also like the fact that due to the water it becomes heavier than a normal pillow and doesn't move around. Jane

I used the pillow as a meditation cushion. I did not use it as a pillow. So, I do not know.

It may be another deliberate misinformation from this vendor. Their pillows are VERY small, 21x15, and when I bought them they had an artificially low price and, to my annoyance, a very high shipping rate. I would avoid buying Sleep Master products in the future, and I suggest you avoid them as well.

I am sure that some people wouldn't need a pillow but I prefer one. I bought an inflatable pillow at a local sporting goods store but it is a little too thin for my taste. If I slept for a couple nights with it, I would probably get used to it. I would say that is just a matter of personal preference.

I'm not sure. I would think it might help with the neck pain... But I mostly don't feel much on my neck while using the pillow. I mostly use the pillow for my head and shoulders. It seems to help.

No It does not feel like actual acupuncture. I does feel good after you get use to it. I like the neck pillow part the best as I have neck pain and it does help. I lay on the mat part but not as much. I feel it was worth the money.

I sleep on my side most of the time. One of the things I like about this pillow is that all of the little kernals of \pearlite or whatever it is inside generally hold on to one another. If I scrunch up the pillow so that it supports my head in a higher position, it does that well. It is not foamy or bouncy, so it allows me to lie still and thus helps itself hold the height I wanted it at. Later, if I want it higher or lower, I can almost always get it exactly where I want it. I have even used it to support my head while sitting on the airplane for long periods of time. It can also be smushed down if you want to lie on your back with your head only surrounded and in one place. Great pillow.

I use it in a chair at home and it helps with neck pain but you shouldnt fall asleep in this, it can cause more problems if you turn your head sideways in it while asleep.Its best suited for laying on flat hard surface.A u shaped neck pillow might be best for plane seat/ trip.

It could increase the soreness initially. When I first got my pillow I used it for an hour and then gradually increased a bit each time until I was comfortable through the night. I did get the softer pillow- gentle support I think it is called...Once I got use to it it is great and I can sleep with no other pillow.
