Abstract: A pillow and method of using the same is presented for providing comfortable lateral, fore and aft support for an individual's head and neck while the individual rests in a seated, prone or supine position. The pillow is elongated and generally cylindrical so that it can be adapted to completely encircle the individual's neck. The pillow is comprised of elastically deformable materials can be secured around the individual's neck in a generally helical pattern, overlapping the ends of the pillow. The pillow is then tightened or loosened to adjust for fit and comfort. In another embodiment, the pillow is secured around the individual's neck by tying the ends around each other. The amount of head and neck support can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of times that the pillow encircles the individual's neck.
