ABSTRACT:
A body support includes first and second resilient cushions. The first cushion has a substantially semicylindrical shape defined by a semicylindrical top surface, two substantially semicircular end surfaces, and a substantially rectangular bottom surface having first and second long sides and two short sides. The second cushion has a substantially semicylindrical shape defined by a semicylindrical top surface, two substantially semicircular end surfaces, and a substantially rectangular bottom surface having first and second long sides and two short sides. The first long side of the second cushion is hingedly connected to the second long side of the first cushion so that the first and second cushions can be rotated with respect to each other from an open position to a closed position. A zipper is used to secure the first and second cushions in the closed position. A method of providing support to a person's neck and head, and a method of providing support to a person's back are also disclosed. A body support comprised of three semicylindrically shaped cushions is also disclosed.
