Same Award Winning Pillow, Cooler than Ever

With over 300,000 happy customers and thousands of 5-star reviews, the Groove Original is already one of the best-rated pillows for neck pain in the UK.

In 2026, we've created our new cooling memory foam pillow with a CoolTouch cover that is genuinely cold to the touch. Not gel, just superior airflow engineering.

By adding multiple air cooling technologies you can enjoy a fresher and cooler night’s sleep whilst aligning posture, reducing pain and encouraging deeper, longer sleep. Ideal for side sleepers and hot flashes. 

How Memory Foam Keeps You Cool

Unlike gel cooling pillows that simply absorb heat before warming up, the Groove® Air Cooling Pillow uses active airflow engineering to keep you cool all night long.

The same bamboo charcoal memory foam core you trust for neck and shoulder pain now features:

1. 40 ventilation channels providing 50% greater airflow than a standard memory foam pillow.

2. CoolTouch outer cover - OEKO-TEX certified fabric that is genuinely cold to the touch from the first moment.

3. Wide-weave mesh side panels - drawing cool air through the pillow as you sleep.

The result? A cooling memory foam pillow that stays cool.

Who Is It For?

Our cooling memory foam pillow is designed for back sleepers and side sleepers who:

Experience neck, shoulder or upper back pain and want pain relief from night one.

Anyone who runs hot at night or wakes up overheated.

Is going through perimenopause or menopause and experience hot flashes or night sweats.

Wants the pressure-relieving support of memory foam without the heat retention.

Common Questions

About Groove® Pillows

How is the Groove® Air Cooling Pillow different to the Original Groove® Pillow?
Both pillows share the same award-winning bamboo charcoal memory foam core, guaranteeing the neck and shoulder pain relief the Groove® is known for.

The Groove® Air adds three cooling upgrades: 40 ventilation channels, a CoolTouch outer cover, and wide-weave mesh side panels, delivering 50% more airflow. It's the same best cooling memory foam pillow for neck pain, redesigned for hot sleepers.
Does this cooling pillow work for chronic neck pain?
Yes, thanks to the same award-winning construction as our Original Pillow, the new cooling pillow offers the same neck pain benefits: reduced tension, alleviation of migraines and neutral head, neck and spine alignment.
Is this cooling pillow suitable for menopause and night sweats?
Yes. The Groove® Air Cooling Memory Foam Pillow is a popular choice for people experiencing menopause, hot flashes and night sweats. It helps with both the physical discomfort of sleeping hot and the neck tension that can worsen during midlife.

Many customers notice both issues onset around the same time, this pillow addresses both simultaneously.
Why choose a cooling memory foam pillow over a regular memory foam pillow?
Standard memory foam retains body heat, it's a well-known trade-off. The Groove® Air Cooling Pillow solves this with active ventilation built into the foam itself. You get the pressure relief and neck support memory foam is known for, without waking up overheated.

It's the best of both: a best cooling memory foam pillow that's also recommended by 850+ medical practitioners for neck pain relief.
How quickly does Groove deliver in the UK?
90% of Groove orders are dispatched same-day, Monday-Friday from our UK warehouse.

We offer 24 and 48 hour tracked delivery, meaning you could receive your parcel in as little as 24 hours.
Is the Groove® Air a gel cooling pillow or a memory foam cooling pillow?
The Groove® Air Cooling Pillow is a memory foam cooling pillow, not a gel cooling pillow. Rather than a gel layer that absorbs heat temporarily, the Groove® Air Cooling Pillow uses active air-channel technology: 40 ventilation channels built into the memory foam core continuously circulate air as you sleep.

    Back neck releif

    This is the only pillow that helps my bad neck. I have degenerative discs and spondolosis of the upper neck, so i need a good supportive pillow to sleep.

    I have used Groove pillows for the last few years, and just started using the new air cooling pillow. This pillow is a little softer in feel and texture, not as stiff as my last one, which gives it a more luxurious and comforting feel. This is my favourite pillow of all and cant recommend highly enough.

    Wouldn't be without it

    Absolutely love my new Groove pillow, I have the original pillow but also bought the new improved version - very cool and comfortable especially in the heat of summer. . No problems with stiff neck or shoulders since using Groove. Does the job perfectly, and Groove Pillows is an excellent company to deal with. Highest recommendation.

    It’s cool

    I already have one of the original Grove pillows so I know that they are comfortable and puts your neck in the grove to give a supported sleep position and also eases neck strain. As I am always hot I decided to try the air cooling pillow , it has a different type of cover which is cooling to the head and very comfortable. I would recommend trying this one as well, maybe one for the summer and one for the winter.

    Does exactly what it says. Would recommend.

    I’ve had mine for a couple of weeks now and I couldn’t recommend it enough. I’m all over the place as a sleeper and can rarely find the right spot and get comfortable. I’ve had blocky memoryfoam pillows before that have been hot, heavy and rigid but this is much more lightweight and adaptable while it retains structure for the support you need. I’m a front, back and side sleeper and the design of this really allows for all. 10/10 would recommend. Surprised I’ve not already bent it all out of shape.
