Water pillow

A water pillow is a type of pillow that contains a sealed water chamber, usually beneath a layer of fiber or foam fill, which allows the user to adjust firmness by adding or removing water. These pillows are designed to provide customizable support and are used by some individuals seeking relief from neck discomfort and sleep disturbances.[1]

History

The concept may have originated when a hot water bottle was placed under a pillow with the intent to ease neck pain during sleep, eventually being branded as a water pillow in 1995.[2]
