From the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Neurology, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine: The Water Pillow was consistently associated with statistically significant improvements in the overall quality of sleep and pain relief and was consistently better than the other pillows. Positive effects of the water pillow may be due to its ability to spontaneously conform to the position and shape of the head and neck. The polyester fiber is compressed by the head and neck, and it transfers this weight to the supporting non-compressible water filled pouch. This water filled pouch spontaneously redistributes the weight of the head and neck during changes in sleep positions.

The water pillow that has been scientifically designed and clinically shown to improve quality of sleep. Because the water pillow can be customized to give you exactly the support you want, soft, medium or firm, it's important to take a few minutes to understand how to add just the right amount of water and to release any excess air.

Sit the pillow upright in a chair, so that the cap is at the top. Remove the cap by turning it counter clockwise, this funnel comes with the pillow, screw the funnel into the valve opening, the funnel will make it easier to add water, how much water you add is entirely up to you, but we suggest you start with a medium firmness which is about 3 quarts of water. The best way to add water is with an easy to pour container such as a coffee pot, tilt the funnel upwards, pour the water into the pillow.

The next step is the most important step, after you pour the water into the water bag you have to get all the air out of the water bag, remove the funnel and with the pillow sitting upright in the chair, you can see that the water is all at the bottom of the water bag, take both hands and find where the water stops in the water bag, you can actually feel the top of the water with your fingers, so now just simply sweep the top part of the water bag in an outward motion, by sweeping the bag outwards, you will push all the air out of the water bag through the valve opening, keep one hand on the top part of the water bag so that the air does not go back in, then simply replace the cap. Tighten firmly, but no need to over tighten.

Now remember you can always change the level of support you get from the water pillow simply by adding or removing water from the pillow. If you want more support for your head and neck just add a bit of water, if you want less support, simply remove a bit of water, but always remember to remove the air in the water bag each time you add or remove water.
