When a pillow for your head isn’t enough, a full body bath pillow does the trick. If your tub is a bit shallower than you’d like or you just want the extra plush support for your entire bod, this pillow delivers, and then some. The pillow comes with a mesh bag for machine washing and it has a convenient hanger on top for drying.

If you buy a bath pillow on the softer side, chances are you’ll want to wash it more since it’s not as easy to just shake off and dry as a vinyl-coated pillow. This pillow from Kandoona is made with a super-soft, cozy material that won’t stick to you when wet. Plus, you can toss it right in the wash (with the included mesh bag) and then hang it up to dry.

This pillow from Bath Bliss is a steal at under $15. If you’re worried about having a moldy, gross pillow hanging around in your bathroom, this one made with antimicrobial material will ease your mind. The special material plus the quick-dry mesh should prevent any moldy issues—just don’t forget to hang it up to dry when you’re done.

Made from organic Tencel, a plant-based material, this bath pillow is soft and dries quickly. If you’re looking for a cushioned pillow, this one delivers at four inches in thickness. You can also toss this pillow in the washing machine, and it comes in a convenient hook to hang dry. One rave reviewer on Amazon said, “I’m only sad that I could have had one of these my whole life and am just now realizing how great baths could have been, but at least now they’re infinitely better.”

Some pillows feel great while they’re dry, but once they hit the water, it’s a different story. This full-body length bath pillow is made with several layers of material that keep it fluffy while submerged in the tub.

If your tub is on the shallow side like mine, chances are you need more cushioning and support to make it comfortable.

Sometimes you need support and cushion beyond just your head and neck. The extra-thick cushioning on this full-body bath pillow will help you feel like you’re being cradled in a cloud. Dreamy, right?

When you have back pain, even the most enjoyable things (like a bath) can feel, well not so enjoyable without the right support.
