The Perfect Fit Pillow checks a lot of boxes for me. My bedding is all organic latex, wool and cotton - but my old pillow was cheap memory foam that off-gassed for months.

It's adjustable - made without flame retardants or formaldehyde - low VOC
Our conversation was very interesting - focusing on pain and sleep:
- Pain is in the mind - which is why opiates, pain pills are soooo overly prescribed and abused.
- Chronic pain is the most common cause of long-term disability in the US
- Almost 100 of our pain is mis-attributed. We think it's one thing and it's almost always something else.
- Sleeping and sitting postures are screwing everyone up.
- Accelerated arthritis, break down etcetera with a kinked neck during sleep.
- US Pure Certified, Low Chem, Bamboo fiber pillow case
- Why you shouldn't spend a ton of money on a bed. Start with 4 lb high density memory foam topper - $200-300 - density and high quality is important
- What makes a good pillow?
Enjoy!
