Easing tension, stress and aches

The buckwheat hulls used in these pillows have been hand-roasted to insure their quality and longevity. Try microwave or freeze the smaller sizes pillows for soothing warmth or refreshing coolness to help easing tension, stress, or aches and provide targeted relief whenever needed.

Discover the timeless benefits of buckwheat hull support and wake up feeling truly refreshed.
