If you’ve recently undergone a mastectomy or are preparing for one, you’re likely seeking products to aid your recovery. Mastectomy pillows offer the support and comfort you need during this crucial healing period.
What is the Sleep Again Pillow System?
Designed by breast cancer survivors, the Sleep Again Pillow System is tailored for post-mastectomy comfort. It helps ensure restful recovery by offering support in back-sleeping positions. This system is also ideal for individuals with sleep apnea, back pain, or those needing an elevated sleeping position.
The Sleep Again Pillow System includes:
- Two contour side pillows for back and hip support.
- Upper body wedge for inclined positioning.
- Leg support wedge to elevate the legs gently.
- Removable, washable slipcovers for all pillows.
This comprehensive system allows users to sleep comfortably, promoting healing and relaxation. It’s also HSA and FSA eligible, adding convenience for those with these accounts.
