摘要

A therapeutic pillow covering (100) for covering either a prefabricated conventional or therapeutic pillow (200) having a central depression region (210), or for encasing pillow fill having a plurality of compartments (12, 14, 16) for holding a prefabricated pillow insert (22, 28) or a hot or cold pack (26). The compartments (12, 14, 16) each have an opening (13, 15, 17) for insertion and removable of the inserts (22, 26, 28). The pillow covering (100) has a center compartment (14) located about in the center of the pillow cover; two oppositely disposed side wing compartments (12) located on opposite ends of the pillow cover (100); and two oppositely disposed hot/cold pack compartments (16) parallel to the center compartment (11) and on opposite sides of the center compartment (14). The compartments (12, 14, 16) may be affixed either to the interior of the cover (100) or to the exterior of the cover (100). The cover (100) may have boxed off corners (20). The opening (13, 15, 17) may be closed using a fastener such as Velcro, snaps, or a zipper.
