After getting some great reviews from my sister, I finally took the plunge and bought an organic buckwheat hull pillow. I have been having some neck and upper back discomfort at night and wanted an alternative from the wool pillow I have been using. I also grind my teeth at night sometimes, probably due to the neck and back pain.
I have been completely happy with my new pillow! My neck and back pain is gone and I also noticed that I am not grinding my teeth at night anymore, a side benefit that I was not expecting!

These pillows do take a few nights to get used to, as they are firmer and have a very different feeling than your "normal" cotton, feather, or wool pillows. But, they do a beautiful job of conforming to your head and neck and providing support like no other pillow I have every tried.
I also love that they are a natural source of filler and there are many places that will sell them organically grown. You can also make your own, as my sister did.
I bought my pillow at
Northern Naturals, and you read more about the pillows and their benefits,
