Thank you for your question regarding the arc4life cervical linear traction neck pillow. Arc4life does not recommend that you wash this pillow. It will break down the fibers- leading to a a loss of cervical support in the pillow and a breakdown of the fibers.
If in the event you do wash the pillow, **you have to very good about drying the pillow afterwards**. This is not very easy and most home dryers cannot handle this. Washing the pillow in the washing machine is NOT recommended.
A simple spot/surface wash with water and ivory soap/any detergent is a better idea. Just let the pillow air dry afterwards. You can also simply take a wet (wrung out) wash cloth and wipe down the pillow, then let it air dry. Also protect the pillow with a zippered dust cover, and wash the dust cover regularly. Hope this helps.
