Not anymore than any other pillow I have tried. --- Supposedly, at the Sleep Number store there is a pillow designed to not sweat?
2055992
No, not that I've ever noticed, and I've been using it for several (6?) months now. I love this pillow.
2055993
No. I have no issues with this pillow making me sweat. I love this pillow so much i now travel with it!

I haven't tried the other one, but this one can make you feel bruised you if you lean against it too hard. I control the pressure by adjusting my posture. I have read of others using other pillows around it to support you so that your full weight isn't against just the shiatsu pillow. Because it's smaller than one of the "chair-sized" massagers, it's easy to make adjustments as needed.

Nope, no sweat that I've seen. My son and I both use them, and we think they're pretty great. :-)

It does not feel slick. It feels like fine cotton. You won't sweat. We've had several cool nights. I pulled it up on me and felt very comfortable. Take if from someone who has frequent night sweats.

Not really! It may for some people but for some reason not for me. Other reviewers made it sound like you were gonna be drenching in sweat! But I guess individual results may vary.

My neck and back have had multiple trauma's over the past 50 years. The Inversion traction I've been doing with the Ironman Gravity 1000 has made an undeniable improvement on my low back symptoms. However, to answer your question, it is less effective for symptoms related to the cervical spine. At the suggestion of a neurologist, I began aggressive cervical traction of for upper back using a head harness and a simple adapted system of heavy Body Bands (exercise bands) instead of the pulley system that came with the harness. After following the prescription of deep tractioning for about 20 minutes, twice a day, for 2 months, I was able to cancel the surgery that had been scheduled. I was then able to discontinue the traction regimen, and have been symptom free relative to neck/shoulder/sub scapular pain and radicular nerve symptoms in my arm and hand for over two years. I continue to use the inversion table to relieve low back symptoms.

I've found this pillow cooler, but note it's something like resting your head on a firm bean bag; it's not fluffy or soft. In fact it's a heavy pillow that would injure someone in a pillow fight. I still like and use mine, but its just a different experience.

I don't have night sweats but do use a Mediflow water pillow. It is especially nice in the summer as the water is cool and feels nice on hot summer nights.

Well its very pluffy, so you wont feel it at all. And its made out of cloth so it doesnt make any sound when you move your head around pillow. But there is one thing that I need to mention here. So both ends are held together with a cloth zippy thing, which is kinda bumpy. That might discomfort you, until you get used to it.

I only used it a few nights, but it was prescribed for me to RELIEVE neck pressure. I was used to a down pillow, very fluffy and soft. This was much firmer. And of course recessed for the neck and head.

It has helped my back (which I have had problems with for 40 years) and my ability to breath tremendously. I still have to use a neck pillow but it does seem to feel better since I've been elevating it. Remember, this is a high wedge and you do sleep at a pretty high angle.

I have no idea. I have never used it at times I would be sweating. Not sure that would work but I've not used it for that.

It doesn't get hot for me. Thanks to some crazy 40 hormones, I can get pretty hot, but this pillow has never contributed to that. ;)

I do not like my head elevated too much either. This pillow can be below 4 inches because you can control how much water you add into the pillow. I looked at my pillow and it is probably 4 inches but it 'gives' when you lay on it. It is not a hard, compacted surface when you lay on it. I really recommend this pillow. I have not had to visit my chiropractor after waking up with random neck ache pains that do not go away.

I am not sure,but only after a few night's sleeping on it,the memory foam trapped my body heat&caused me to sweat.I would return right away and go online and look for a talalay latex pillow with the specially designed holes through them,you will be glad you did,I am.

No it isnt waterproof. Feels more like a mattress cover. I don't sweat at all with it. Love the pillow too!!!

No, sorry I have only used the Real-Ease neck & shoulder Relaxer. It works very well for me.
