Quick answer: Best pillow for stomach sleepers
Stomach sleepers need a soft, low-loft pillow so the head stays close to the mattress and the neck isn't bent upward. Our Soft White Goose Down Pillow offers the low profile stomach sleepers need; the Adjustable Organic Wool Pillow can be set to a low loft by removing fill.
When you sleep on your stomach, your head is already close to the mattress. A thick or firm pillow forces your neck to bend upward and twist, which can strain it overnight. A soft, low-loft pillow keeps your head nearly flat so your neck stays in a more neutral line with your spine. Down Under pillows are designed and made in Canada. Free shipping over $100.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do stomach sleepers need a soft, low pillow?
Lying on your stomach already places your head close to the mattress. A soft, low-loft pillow keeps your head nearly flat so your neck stays in line with your spine instead of bending upward.
Will a thick pillow hurt my neck?
It can. A thick or firm pillow lifts the head too high for stomach sleeping, forcing the neck to bend and twist, which often leads to morning neck pain. A soft, low pillow like our Soft Goose Down Pillow avoids that.
Is there an adjustable option?
Yes. The Adjustable Organic Wool Pillow lets you remove fill to set a very low loft that suits stomach sleeping.
