Wedge Ramp Pillow.

A trapezoidal wedge ramp pillow for gastroesophageal reflux prevention, postoperative recovery, elderly bed support, and pregnancy lift — a firm, angled cushion that elevates the upper body or legs to the correct therapeutic position without requiring the user to stack or rearrange standard pillows. 66×74×18 cm. Includes non-woven storage bag.

01 Acid Reflux Prevention — The Angle That Keeps Stomach Acid Down

Elevating the upper body at the correct angle reduces the pressure that allows stomach acid to travel upward during sleep — the positional intervention that gastroenterologists recommend for GERD and gastroesophageal reflux, and the reason a firm, consistent wedge works where a stack of soft pillows collapses and fails. A pillow stack that flattens after 20 minutes provides no therapeutic benefit; a firm trapezoidal wedge holds its angle and its height throughout the night.

02 Postoperative Recovery — Correct Positioning Without Effort

After surgery, maintaining the correct body position is essential for healing and comfort — the wedge holds the upper body or legs at the prescribed elevation throughout the night without the user needing to adjust, restack, or reposition, making recovery rest genuinely restorative rather than a constant effort. For chest, abdominal, or lower-limb procedures where elevation is part of the recovery protocol, a wedge that holds its shape removes the compliance problem that a soft pillow stack creates.

03 Pregnancy Lift — Relief for the Third Trimester

In late pregnancy, lying flat becomes increasingly uncomfortable as the weight of the abdomen compresses the lower back and restricts circulation — the wedge provides the lift and support that redistributes pressure, reduces lower back strain, and makes sleeping through the night possible again. Used under the upper body for reflux (common in the third trimester) or under the knees for lower back relief, it addresses the two most common sleep disruptions of late pregnancy without requiring the user to manage multiple pillows.

04 66×74×18 cm — Full-Body Support at the Right Height

At 66×74×18 cm, the wedge is large enough to support the full width of the torso and firm enough to maintain its shape and angle throughout the night — the dimensions that make it a genuine therapeutic aid rather than a decorative cushion that flattens under body weight within an hour. The 18 cm elevation height is the clinical standard recommended for upper-body positional therapy; lower wedges provide insufficient angle for effective reflux prevention.

For acid reflux and GERD: place the wedge with the high end at the head of the bed and lie with the upper back resting on the slope — the angle elevates the head and chest above the stomach, using gravity to keep stomach acid below the oesophagus during sleep. The pillow should support from the lower back upward, not just the head and neck, to maintain the full-body angle that makes positional reflux therapy effective.
For postoperative recovery: position the wedge as directed by the surgical team or physiotherapist — for upper-body procedures, the high end supports the head and chest; for lower-limb procedures, the wedge is placed under the knees or lower legs to elevate them above heart level, reducing swelling and improving venous return. Follow medical guidance on the prescribed elevation angle and duration.
For pregnancy: use under the upper body to relieve pregnancy reflux, or under the knees with the high end supporting the thighs to reduce lower back compression when lying on your back in the later trimesters. Many users in late pregnancy find combining the wedge under the upper body with a separate pillow between the knees provides the most complete relief.
For elderly bed support: the wedge reduces the effort required to sit up from lying, as the elevated starting position means the transition to sitting requires less core strength — a meaningful practical benefit for elderly users who find getting in and out of bed difficult. Place permanently at the head of the bed as a standard sleeping position rather than removing it each night.

If you are using the wedge for a medically directed purpose (post-surgery, GERD treatment, or pregnancy-related positioning), confirm the correct angle and placement with your doctor, physiotherapist, or midwife before use. The therapeutic benefit depends on correct positioning — a wedge used at the wrong angle provides less benefit than one positioned correctly.

Use a removable, washable pillow cover over the wedge — the wedge itself is not machine washable, so a cover is the practical way to keep the sleeping surface hygienic for daily use. A standard king-size pillowcase fits many wedge pillows of this size; alternatively, a purpose-made wedge pillow cover with a zip is the cleanest option.
Spot-clean the wedge surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent if the cover is not in use or if liquid reaches the foam — allow to dry fully in a ventilated area before use. Do not saturate the foam with water as this can damage the internal structure and create conditions for mould.
Air the wedge periodically by leaving it uncovered in a ventilated room — foam retains body heat and moisture during use, and regular airing prevents odour build-up over time. Once a week or fortnight is sufficient for normal use.
Store in the included non-woven storage bag when not in use — the bag protects the foam surface from dust and keeps the wedge clean during travel or when stored between uses. The bag is not a compression bag; do not compress the foam for extended periods as this can cause permanent deformation.

The foam is designed to hold its shape and elevation height under normal body weight for extended periods. Some initial compression is normal in the first few weeks of use as the foam settles — this does not affect the therapeutic angle significantly. If the wedge loses its firmness and the elevation height reduces materially over time, it has reached the end of its useful life and should be replaced.

GERD and acid reflux sufferers: the primary clinical use case — positional therapy is the first-line non-pharmacological intervention for nighttime reflux, and a firm wedge that maintains its angle is the only reliable way to achieve the consistent upper-body elevation that makes it effective. For anyone who wakes with heartburn, a sour taste, or a sore throat from nighttime acid exposure, this is the device that addresses the cause rather than the symptom.
Postoperative patients: anyone recovering from chest, abdominal, cardiac, or lower-limb surgery who has been advised to sleep at an elevated angle or with limbs raised — the wedge removes the compliance difficulty of maintaining a prescribed position through a full night of sleep.
Pregnant women (second and third trimester): sleep disruption from reflux, back pain, and positional discomfort is near-universal in the later trimesters — the wedge addresses all three with a single positioned support rather than a collection of standard pillows that shift and flatten during the night.
Elderly users: for anyone who finds getting in and out of bed difficult, or who benefits from sleeping in a slightly more upright position for breathing or comfort reasons — the wedge provides a permanent, consistent elevation without any nightly adjustment required.
Snoring and sleep apnoea: upper-body elevation reduces the tendency for the airway to collapse during sleep in back-sleepers, which is the positional factor that worsens snoring and mild obstructive sleep apnoea — not a treatment, but a positional intervention that many users find materially reduces snoring frequency and intensity.
As a gift: a considered, practical gift for a family member recovering from surgery, a pregnant friend approaching the third trimester, or an elderly relative who has mentioned sleep or reflux difficulties — the kind of purchase that makes an immediate, tangible difference to sleep quality.

The Wedge Ramp Pillow is a positioning aid, not a medical device. For medically directed use (post-surgery, GERD treatment, pregnancy positioning), use in conjunction with the guidance of your healthcare provider rather than as a standalone treatment.

Reduced nighttime acid reflux: elevating the upper body at 30–40 degrees uses gravity to keep gastric contents below the lower oesophageal sphincter — the mechanism that reduces the frequency and severity of acid reflux episodes during sleep without requiring medication. Clinical studies consistently show positional therapy reduces nocturnal reflux symptoms in GERD patients.
Improved airway patency: sleeping at an angle reduces the gravitational tendency for the tongue and soft palate to fall backward and partially obstruct the airway — the positional factor that contributes to snoring and mild sleep apnoea in back-sleepers. Upper-body elevation is one of the standard behavioural interventions for positional snoring.
Reduced lower back strain: elevating the upper body slightly changes the spinal angle during sleep, reducing the compressive load on the lumbar discs that accumulates when lying completely flat — particularly beneficial for users with lumbar disc issues or lower back pain that worsens overnight.
Improved venous return from lower limbs: when used under the knees or lower legs, the wedge elevates the feet above heart level, promoting venous return from the lower extremities — the intervention that reduces overnight leg swelling, heaviness, and the aching associated with venous insufficiency or prolonged standing during the day.
Better sleep continuity: the cumulative effect of reduced reflux episodes, improved airway, and lower discomfort is fewer nighttime awakenings and a more restorative sleep pattern — the outcome that most users notice first, before attributing it to any specific mechanism.

The health benefits listed are general positional therapy effects associated with upper-body elevation during sleep. They are not medical claims and do not constitute medical advice. If you have a diagnosed condition such as GERD, sleep apnoea, or venous insufficiency, discuss positional therapy with your doctor or specialist as part of a broader treatment plan.

Elevate. Rest. Recover.
