I researched the best pillow for headache relief as my physiotherapist advised me to change my pillow because of frequent morning headaches and neck tension. I have been experiencing headaches quite often lately, especially when I wake up. I went through reviews from trusted sources like Healthline, Good Housekeeping, Sleep Foundation, and Reddit threads, and after comparing many options these two kept coming up as the top choices:

**Saatva Latex Pillow**

**Coop Home Goods Original Adjustable Pillow**

However, I am having trouble deciding which one would be better for me and I would love to get your expert advice. I am hoping maybe some chiropractors or people who have dealt with similar headaches can also share their advice.  
I usually sleep on my side but sometimes switch to my back, so I’m not sure which one would be more suitable for me. Which one would you personally recommend for someone who often wakes up with headaches?  
Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
