# Putnams Memory Foam Bed Wedge

### Putnams Memory Foam Bed Wedge. NHS-Recommended Acid Reflux & Heartburn Pillow with Pressure-Relieving Memory Foam Top. Handmade in Devon

The Putnams Memory Foam Bed Wedge is a premium triangular wedge pillow designed to gently elevate the upper torso during sleep, providing natural, drug-free relief from acid reflux, heartburn, GERD and silent reflux. Built on a medium-soft supportive foam core with a 2.5cm pressure-relieving memory foam top layer, it combines the proven therapeutic benefits of an angled sleeping position with the added comfort of memory foam that gently moulds to your body's contours. Good Housekeeping Institute Approved 2026.

At 15cm (6") high within the NHS-recommended elevation range of 10–20cm for acid reflux, and available in six widths to suit every UK bed size, this is the most comfortable and versatile bed wedge in the Putnams range.

### How Does a Bed Wedge Help with Acid Reflux?

Acid reflux occurs when stomach acid flows back up into the oesophagus, causing the burning sensation commonly known as heartburn. Sleeping flat allows this to happen more easily. By elevating the head and chest at a gentle incline, a bed wedge uses gravity to keep stomach acid where it belongs, reducing the frequency and severity of reflux episodes overnight. A 2015 study published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology found that a 6" elevation significantly reduced reflux in patients, the precise height at which the Putnams bed wedge is made.
