Natural Buckwheat Hull pillow relieves headaches, neck pain, back pain, snoring, and improves sleep. Guaranteed. (NOTE FROM JACKI: I personally use this pillow and found it a "God-send" for my chronic headaches. Prior to getting MCS, I used a foam chiropractic pillow, but can no longer use them because of the outgassing of the foam. I tried an organic wool/cotton pillow, but it didn't give any neck support and I woke up every night with a headache. Since getting the buckwheat hull pillow, I tolerate it very well and no longer wake up with a headache every night!)
