<p>A pillow (10) for laterally supporting the head of a user. The pillow (10) has a base portion (11) against which the user rests his/her head and a lateral support portion (12) which supports the user's head to resist rotation thereof about the axis of the user's neck. The pillow (10) may also have a recess (19) formed in the support portion for partially accommodating the user's head and thereby resisting relative movement between the pillow and the user's head. Further, the support portion (12) may have a sufficient length so that, in use, it rests on a shoulder of the user to provide further stability to the pillow. A removable cover (13) may be provided, and the pillow is preferably constructed from an expanded foam rubber or synthetic plastics material. In a second preferred embodiment the pillow (30) is provided with two spaced lateral support portions (31) on opposite sides of the base portion (32).</p> |
