Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow | CT Compact Technologies Wedge Pillow Overview
CT Compact Technologies’ Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow provides patented three-level support that will help you find the comfort your body craves. Most knee pillows for sleeping and ankle pillows for sleeping are too shallow and are built of mostly or wholly memory foam cushioning. The result is a narrow pillow that sinks under the weight of one’s knees and/or ankles. The goal of a knee pillow and ankle pillow is to keep these joints at hip width apart, according to Brian Rossiter, a posture coach who guides people to experience the ultimate in pain relief and peak performance on PostureExercisesMethod.com.
Use of CT Compact Technologies’ Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow might not only provide improved knee and ankle support but increased hip support. This combination might result in less trunk strain and rotation, as side sleepers will have these three joints lined up without one side pulling in front of the other, according to Brian Rossiter.
With a CT Compact Technologies’ Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow—perhaps the best leg pillow for side sleepers—you stand to enjoy improved joint alignment and posture and experience enhanced hip, knee and ankle function with reduced back strain and back pain. You might even benefit from less or eliminated soreness in your body, improved sleep and energy gains throughout the day.
Additionally, a CT Compact Technologies’ Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow features straps that can help keep your knee wedge pillow and ankle wedge pillow in place. What this means is you’ll not have to search for a lost side sleeping leg pillow underneath your bed sheets and covers in the wee hours of the morning.

Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow | CT Compact Technologies Wedge Pillow: Brian Rossiter's Personal Experience
WedgePillows.net creator Brian Rossiter creator bought one knee pillow and ankle pillow in the early 2020s but was disappointed in the fact that it was too shallow in height and was constructed entirely out of extremely squishy memory foam. The result was a side sleeper leg pillow that provided little actual support height, especially in the knees.
A few years later, Brian Rossiter came across CT Compact Technologies’ pillow for knees and ankles and, upon arrival, quickly appreciated its thoughtful, adjustable design as well as increased height. This product stands above practically all competitors in the market for side sleeping knee pillows thanks to its robust set of features, some of which might be the difference maker in your ability to use your knee pillow and ankle pillow at all—let alone through the night.
Still, this product isn’t perfect, especially for someone of Brian Rossiter’s height, 6 feet and 2 inches. For someone of his size, a pillow for knees and ankles offering 7 inches in the pillow’s sloped region would be ideal, as this is the distance of his knees and ankles when spaced at the optimal hip width apart. An additional DIY option with this product is to place an extra small piece of firm foam between the firm and memory foam pillow layers.
For many, however, CT Compact Technologies’ Knee Pillow & Ankle Pillow might be just the wedge pillow for knees and ankles you’ve been seeking or yearning for without ever knowing it.
Brian Rossiter, who suffered from chronic pain for a decade before embracing a daily routine of posture exercises (explore his Posture Exercises Method services), has invested in many wedge pillows since 2015 as part of his effort to optimize ergonomics to reduce the onset of posture deviations throughout the day.
