One of the recommendations my CCI PT made was to our pillows under my arms when I’m sitting. This is helpful when I’m in the car, using my phone or table, reading a book, even just watching tv.
Finding the right pillow(s) has been a bit challenging. Until I came across gaming pillows.
Below are some options. I’ll add more if I find them, but these are the two main ones I’ve found so far.
EXO-Scuf – I bought this one. It has a thick cover and an inflatable insert (which began to deflate in the first couple hours so we put it in a tub of water and found a small hole. Once patched, it stayed inflated.)
The Valari – these seems to be a very well made gaming pillow with a strong supportive insert and machine washable cover (which you can change out as well). I wish I’d gone with this one first. At $79, it seemed pricey but it seems worth the extra $40.
The Pillow Pad – I found this at a discount store and bought a couple of them. It’s been great for holding my phone or tablet on my lap. I set it on top of my gaming pillow, which makes it so I can keep my neck properly aligned.
If you know of any great products or tools for CCI, please share with me!
