A cervical pillow is disclosed comprising a headrest portion, a cervical neck roll portion, and opposing lateral side portions. The headrest portion and the cervical neck roll portion comfortably supports the user\s head area while providing proper cervical support to the user\s neck area. The opposing lateral side portions provide side support for the user\s head, maintaining the user\s head in a straight and anatomically correct position while the user\s head is at rest in the cervical pillow. The cervical pillow has air bladders in the headrest, cervical, and lateral support portions for adjusting the amount of pressure against the head and cervical areas of the user. The cervical pillow has resilient cushion inserts between the air bladders and the surfaces that make contact with the user. The cushion inserts are held into place with a fabric material covering the cervical pillow assembly.
