A cervical pillow having the visual appearance of a traditional pillow comprising: a pillow casing, including at least two side edges and at least one end edge spacing said side edges apart; a pillow-filling located within said pillow casing, said pillow-filling forming a head support region; and a cervical support member comprising a cylindrical shaped body having tapering ends, said cervical support member located within said pillow casing proximal an end edge of said pillow casing, and spaced apart from said side edges, thereby defining gaps, said pillow-filling and said cervical support member disposed within said pillow casing in a manner so as to provide for the cosmetic appearance of an elongated traditional pillow, said cervical support member forming a neck support region wherein said neck support region has a greater compression resiliency than said head support region thereby allowing said neck support region to resist against compression and remain a viable source for supporting a user's neck as said head support region compressively supports the user's head thereon, the pillow further comprising a member for maintaining the cylindrical shaped body proximal to an end edge, with the shape of the cylindrical shaped body concealed within the pillow.
