A torso and lumbar support and position stabilizing pillow for a lateral recumbency position comprising a substantially planar base member, a main body and a lumbar support member, the main body having a top surface, a bottom surface, an outside surface and an inside surface. The main body is shaped such that the bottom surface is planar and attached to the base member, while the outside surface of the main body is also planar and perpendicular to the base member, with the inside surface of the main body being opposite the outside surface and disposed at an acute angle with respect to the base member. Optionally, the inside surface can be concave to accommodate the natural curve of the spine, allowing room for the protrusion of a person's shoulder and buttocks areas. In use, the pillow is placed in firm contact with a person's back and side to provide lumbar support when a person is lying in lateral recumbency, on their side. In addition to reducing muscle strain, the support pillow also reduces the amount of muscle tension and effort that must be put forth to maintain this position. This results in reduced fatigue.

Support lombaire et pour le torse et oreiller de stabilisation en position couché sur le côté, constitué d'une base principalement plane, d'un élément principal et d'un support lombaire. L'élément principal, constitué d'une surface supérieure, d'une surface inférieure, d'une surface extérieure et d'une surface intérieure, est façonné de sorte que la surface inférieure soit plane et se fixe à la base, tandis que la surface extérieure, également plane, est perpendiculaire à la base. Quant à la surface intérieure, elle est opposée à la surface extérieure et forme un angle aigu par rapport à la base. Pour ceux qui le désirent, la surface intérieure peut prendre une forme concave épousant la courbe naturelle de la colonne vertébrale, ce qui laisse de l'espace pour la protrusion créée par les épaules et les fesses. Cet oreiller se place directement sur le dos et le côté, assurant ainsi un support lombaire lorsque la personne est étendue sur le côté. Il réduit le claquage musculaire ainsi que la tension et l'effort musculaires nécessaires pour garder cette position et, par le fait même, il réduit la fatigue.
