Have you ever just wanted to sleep comfortably on your stomach?

Five years ago, my daughter Christina, who is an RN, suggested we design a pillow that allows you to sleep on your stomach without having your head turned to one side. 

As a chiropractor of 30 years, I knew firsthand how many people want to sleep on their stomachs for various reasons. Sleeping facedown, however, can put considerable stress on the neck which can result in neck pain and headaches. So, we went to work designing the Mug Pillow - the only pillow we know of that positions the head and neck in a neutral position. My son, Matt, used his engineering skills to do the CAD drawings and get things started. It has been a long process as we have worked hard to find companies in the US to do the manufacturing of this pillow. And here we are, ready to reveal the Mug Pillow to the public. We look forward to getting customer feedback on this new pillow so we can continue to make improvements if needed. Thank you for your interest in the Mug Pillow.
