Adjustable cradle pillow systems

Abstract

An adjustable cradle pillow system providing support for a cervical region and spine alignment for a human user during at least one resting period thereby providing the human with a more comfortable and restful night's sleep. The adjustable cradle pillow may include: a primary pillow; a cradle pillow; and a slab pillow. Due to the three-piece construction (primary pillow, cradle pillow, and slab pillow) of the adjustable cradle pillow system, different filling densities of the primary pillow, cradle pillow, and slab pillow may be used thereby provide varying degree of firmness. The primary pillow, cradle pillow, and slab pillow of adjustable cradle pillow system in modular-related-combination comprise a cervical region support assembly. The cervical region support assembly provides support for a cervical region and spine alignment for a human user during resting periods.
