Sharper Image Full-Body Pillow
Crafted out of hypoallergenic fiberfill, this horseshoe-shaped pillow is ideal for side sleepers and those suffering from neck or shoulder pain — providing the fully-body spooning support of not one but two humans.
"This body pillow has enhanced my quality of sleep tremendously. I have hip and sciatic nerve pain. By elevating a leg onto the pillow the pressure is relieved in my hip/sciatic to provide me with a good night's rest. The body pillow acts as a nest and is so comfortable and soothing. I highly recommend this product whether you have any pain or not. It's wonderful," one supported reviewer raved.

Dame Sex Pillo
This comfy-soft yet structurally-firm pillow is engineered to elevate and support your body for enhanced sexual activities that span far beyond intercourse. Plus, the incognito-indigo good can moonlight as lumbar support when propped up against a chair back.
As one reviewer attests, "It's been used every evening. While it does what it is described to do for sex, the other benefits are making the Pillo a must-have. It is the best back support for sleeping and for reading in bed."

It’s the perfect height, temperature and my face has no lines or puffiness upon awakening. My hair is no longer dry or fuzzy either. I cannot praise this pillow enough. I bought another one!"
