Sealy Pocket Spring Back Pillow: Review and Giveaway
It’s not much of a secret I spend a lot of time in bed and one thing I notice when I stressed and sleeping badly, is I suffer more pain, especially in my neck.
As such I know a good pillow is something everyone needs in their life.
This is something Sealy are very aware of and they have come up with a range of pillows to make sure, no matter what your night-time issues are they have something to support you.
Sealy.
Sealy is a company who are all about night time. In fact, they have been in the industry for over 100 years. They are based in the heart of Cumbria and use the most advanced technology to offer you the best nights sleep.
They offer a range of mattress in a whole range of different types. From pocket sprung to memory form, Posturepedic and more.
To complement their mattresses, they have also have a range of beds and headboard which offer a focal point for the room.
Sealy Pocket Spring Back Pillow.
I was kindly sent one of their cushions to try out.
I personally decided to go for Pocket Spring Back. This pillow, in particular, includes 28 pocket springs, to help offer a flexible support system.
Worried about having pocket springs in your pillow and it being uncomfortable? Well, please don’t. They have been specifically surrounded by soft hollow fibre; which helps offer a supportive, comfortable design.
What’s more, the design of the pillow has been designed to try and help keep you cool as you sleep.
As you might have got from the name, this cushion is designed to spring back into shape when you get up in the morning. Offering ongoing support, as the night’s pass.
If that wasn’t enough then this pillow is also hypoallergenic and made to be comfortable and soft due to the covering of DuPont™ Cotrano® fibres.
What Do I Think?
I will be honest as always. It takes a little getting used to after all this isn’t your average pillow. So please don’t try it once and give up.
Once you get used to it you will be glad you gave it just one more try.
Personally, after that starting period, I’ve found it to be much more comfortable to sleep on, with it holding my neck a lot more supportively than a normal pillow.
Personally I am really impressed with the Sealy Pocket Spring Back Cushion and while I realise this pillow won’t work for everyone, please do look into the features for all of the pillows in their range as you are bound to find one which works perfectly.
If you want to have a look at the Sealy collection, head over to their website.

The breathing technique 478 is good for relaxation whic aids sleep.
Don’t play with you phone just before bed. Avoid caffeine late in the afternoon
Have a routine and go to bed at the same time. For me reading doesn’t help as it keeps me awake!
Empty your mind of all worries
Have a relaxing bath and avoid social media
Make sure everything is dark and no screens for an hour before bed
Have a duvet suitable for the season, 4.5 in summer and 13.5 tog in winter
Lately something relaxing to watch, like a nature or space documentary to have happy dreams!
Banish light and embrace darkness but leave some space the early sun
A good mattress and a good wind down routine
Temperature is very important to me, so make sure you are opening windows, or have a quiet fan in the room for when it gets too hot.
I use lavender drops on my pillow Zzzzz
To make sure the bedroom has plenty of fresh air
Make sure to establish a good sleep routine. For me that means a bath and some bedtime yoga followed by reading a book until I’m ready to sleep.
A bath, a cup of chamomile tea and no screens before bed.
Don’t use your phone or tablets an hour before bed. instead read a book.

sit in front of the TV watching a program you have no interest in and you will doze off to be woken by the end credits
No phone an hour before bed!
A cup of hot chocolate just before bed.

A really good pillow, some pillow spray and a fan or something on low in the far corner of the room (if you live in a noisy location like me) ??

I find low dose Amitriptyline, prescribed by my GP, does wonders!!
A good bedtime routine – although these days it seems to be called sleep hygiene. So, going to bed at the same time each night, half an hour before bedtime switching off the tv/computer/radio and not reading (all stimulate the brain) and following the same routine (brushing teeth, putting the cat out or whatever). It all signals to your brain (and body) that it is time to rest, although it can take a while to work if you haven’t had a good routine before so don’t expect it to work immediately you make the changes!
I don’t go to bed until I’m tired. That usually does the trick.
Spray some lavender scent around your bedroom 30/45 mins before bedtime. It’ll help you relax when you do go to bed.
My top tip is to regularly change your bedding. There is nothing better than fresh bedding.
I like a nice clean cool bed, with the window open for a slight breeze, a good pillow and a comfy mattress and a heavy duvet that I can stick my leg out of. I need a bit of space to spread out in and some quiet time away from the husband and kids. Needless to say I don’t sleep well.
I find reading a book helps me to drift off easily.
Also having the room a comfortable temperature is a good idea so not to wake up too hot or cold.
Making sure I’m well hydrated throughout the day and the room is quite cool help me sleep better and there’s nothing like fresh sheets for a confy nights sleep.
Reading a book puts me to sleep.
Switching everything off, don’t look at your phones and try and relax
I have relaxing music (nothing loud!) on sleep mode for a while when I first go to bed. I’m usually asleep before it turns itself off.
go to bed early!!!!
My top tip is choosing the right pillow. I used to get headaches all the time when I had the wrong pillow.
I take calms, because I need something to make me feel sleepy otherwise It’s 4 in the morning and i’m stuck wondering what i’m doing with my life.

Use earplugs! They cut out all the noises that could disrupt your sleep pattern.

Keep to a routine – however tired or awake you feel always try and go to bed and get up at the same time every night, and do the same things in the same order so they will trigger your body to think it’s bed time.

Make sure that your bedroom is dark and well ventilated
Read a little to wind down and then an eye mask to black everything out completely
Chamomile tea and a hot bath with lush bathbomb!
The most likely thing that works is reading something like a magazine that has enough text to make me sleepy. But not a book that is so good you can’t put down!!! I’ve been camping in my extra room over a year on a bunch of pillows, and would love another, as the 86-yr-old woman under me bashes the wall if I even sit on my bed to put on my pj’s. She’s made complaints about it, although she just says “noise,” they wouldn’t believe she can’t stand me getting into my bed or out of it. So I haven’t slept in my bed (or even sat on it). I have to make sure something helps me sleep beyond all the lumps and bumps of my makeshift bed on the floor. This pillow looks soo dreamy!
Nomally a warm shower and then I read a bool in bed until I feel sleepy. That normally does the job.
meditation music helps me all the time especially since I have trouble sleeping

Air the bedroom every day, even if it’s just for 15 minutes. I also grow sansevieria plant on my windowsill.

Would make lounging on the sofa so much more palatable
Relaxing before going to sleep.
A nice cool bedroom is essential for sleep for me – lower tog duvet and cool cotton sheets really help!

A little bit of soothing background music always works for me.
My top tip for a good nights sleep is listening to an audiobook and having a peaceful, cool room!
The trouble is I am SO fussy about my pillows! They have to be ‘just so’… neither too firm nor too soft and it’s not easy finding the right balance!
I know it goes against all the rules but I sleep better if I read on my kindle or my ipad for a while before trying to get to sleep.
Always switch phones, tablets off or keep them out of room before going to bed. Also keep window open for cool air.
I use pillow spray.

I play relaxing delta wave music. I have no idea how it works , but it does seem to help me nod of.
no electronics in the bedroom and black out curtains
Do not go on your phone before going to sleep and avoid having a TV in your room. That way your body associates your bedroom for sleeping
Proper ventilation! You should be warm under the duvet but the air temperature should be cool in order to get a proper night’s sleep
I don’t have any difficulty in sleeping but I have a very active job which wears me out, both physically and mentally. On days when I’m not so active, I do notice that it can take longer to drop off
I think having a cool bedroom really helps to get a good nights sleep. I do like the window open all year around. x
I do this too, most nights, except for in freezing weather as it affects my asthma. Fresh air definitely aids sleep, I think.

No chocolate / coffee or diet coke before bed!
Have a read of a book or Kindle, something to relax you, and try not to use devices before bed
Hello, my tips for a good sleep is to have black out blinds in your bedroom to make it as dark as possible for sleep.
I also live with chronic pain and I agree that sometimes the very thing you most want to do – lie down – can also be the most uncomfortable, even painful. My tip would be rest either a hot water bottle or a cool pack, whichever suits, on or under the bit that hurts the most. Try to relax and allow yourself to be distracted from your pain or discomfort – by a book some music on the radio for example. A great prize, fingers crossed, thank you.

In all honesty I wish I knew – haven’t had a good nights sleep in years.

Wake up at a decent time in the morning and do a little yoga while you’re making tea, or a brew, a little excercise, sit outside a bit for sun, and read for half hour or just ten minutes before bed, but steer clear of electronics for the half hour before bed as they’ll keep your mind on ‘day’ mode! xx
Sprinkle your pillow with lavender oil to help relax you.
Sprinkle your pillow with some lavender oil – relaxing!
A daily brisk walk and reduce caffine in the evening. No screens at least an hour before bed.
Put your phone away. Im easily distracted by my phone, and definitely notice i fall to sleep sooner without it to hand.
Have a warm (not hot) bath and add some lavender oil to it. If you suffer from hayfever, try adding some Eucalyptus oil too.
This tip is only a recent occurrence. I prefer to sleep on my back, but since I hit my mid to late 30s, I tend to wake myself up snoring, I find if I sleep on my side this doesn’t happen. I never used to snore and I miss sleeping on my back 🙁
A good routine! Mine consists of having a warm drink and reading before I drift off to sleep as it helps my mind to relax
Letting go off all the days stresses and a good cuddle!
I dont actually sleep very well But I do find that A cup of Horlicks can help, A warm bath and lavender spray sometime helps I also find a heavy duvet helps a bit but no good in the summer.

Establish a good regular bedtime routine, just like when you have kids, I do the same things at the same time every night, so my body recognises it is time to get ready to sleep.

Putting down phones/laptop for an hour before going to sleep and reading instead.
My top tip for a good night’s sleep is to ensure that the temperature of your room is slightly on the cool side, but not overly so. Something like 18 Celsius.
A cool bedroom, a good quality mattress and pillow, and (my secret to finally being able to sleep) a weighted blanket
A cool room is better for sleep than a warm room.
I don’t drop off to sleep easily at all, the only way I have any chance of falling asleep is by reading until my eyes start to close.
a comfortable bed
I ask Alexa to pay spa music. It’s so relaxing and I drift off in no time at all
If you can’t get to sleep, don’t just lie in bed. Do something else, like reading, watching television, or listening to music, until you feel tired.
Earplugs to drown out the other half snoring ?
I make the room as dark as possible, with curtains and blinds, and I also wear an eye shade. I wear ear plugs because my husband snores. I prefer the pure wax ear plugs as I find the foam plugs dont work for me.
Fresh clean cool linen – and new pillows.
A good book and relaxing bath before bed. Some lavender scent always helps.
the best thing is to get up early in the morning and have a full active day

My top tip for getting plenty of sleep is dont have kids!!!
A warm shower, a cup of relaxing tea, some essential oils in my diffuser and a book are all part of my bedtime routine!
My tips for a good night sleep is to make sure all tvs, phones, laptops are switched off for at least half an hour before bed. It gives your mind a rest and time to relax. Also, make sure you have a notepad by the side of your bed. If you go to bed with something on your mind, it can prevent you falling asleep. That way, if you think of something, jot it down and deal with it in the morning.
My own tip is not to use things like mobile phones an hour before you go to sleep and read a book instead
Keep the room as dark as possible, no heating – window open even in winter, and an audiobook to relax to
A warm bath and a good book.
A comfortable, supportive pillow is a must. Once my pillow becomes too flat I find my sleep is really disturbed.
reading for a good 30 minutes before going to bed will help get you to sleep
Fresh sheets always help me to settle.
No tv in bedroom, good blackout curtains, earplugs and an eyemask, they all help.
a really good book and a nice hot mug of ovaltine
Always get up at the same time, even if you haven’t slept well, and then go to bed at a reasonable time that evening. Sticking to a regular routine really helps, if you can spend the last half hour before you go to bed pottering and winding down its even better. Once you’re in the swing of a routine you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel after several consecutive good nights, I promise you its like having a superpower.
Hi, my top tip is to avoid alcohol. It does help you drift off but stops you getting deeper sleep so you wake up tired. Thanks for the chance.
No screens for an hour before I go to bed
