After shoulder surgery, Sam Jacobsak spent weeks awake — unable to lie on his back, his side, or even sit comfortably in a recliner. His sling wasn't built for sleep. No pillow on the market was. So he turned to his physical therapist, Mike Scaduto, and together they set out to build what didn't exist: a sleep-positioning system that actually protects the shoulder during recovery.
What started as a hand-cut, hot-glued prototype is now a patented medical device recommended by 300+ surgeons and physical therapists, named Forbes' #1 pillow for shoulder recovery, and trusted by 25,000 patients across the country.

Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship to Canada, the UK, and Australia. International orders typically arrive within 7–14 business days. Duties and taxes may apply depending on your country. Free shipping is available on all US orders.
What's included in this bundle?
The Shoulder Sleeper Pillow, 3 single-serving packets of XR® Pre-Op Carbohydrate Loading, a 3-week supply (42 servings) of XR® Therapeutic Musculoskeletal Recovery Supplement, and a 23oz shaker bottle.
Do I need to select a size and side for the pillow?
Yes — select Small/Medium (5'0"–5'10") or Large/XL (5'11"+) based on your height, and Left or Right based on your surgical shoulder.
What is the Pre-Op Carbohydrate Loading and when do I take it?
It is an anesthesia-approved maltodextrin complex carbohydrate and electrolyte drink that replaces traditional pre-surgical fasting. Take it the evening before surgery and again the morning of your procedure 2–4 hours before your scheduled time. Mix with water only to maintain clear-fluid status per anesthesia requirements.
When do I start taking the Recovery Supplement?
Begin taking 2 packets daily one week before your surgery date to prime your body's nutritional reserves ahead of the procedure. Continue at 2 packets daily post-operatively for the full 3-week program duration.
How is XR® different from a regular protein powder?
XR® is specifically formulated for the surgical stress response — not general fitness. It contains clinically studied ingredients at optimal effective doses including a leucine-enriched essential amino acid complex, myHMB® to prevent muscle breakdown during immobilization, and a full micronutrient panel for wound healing and bone repair. It is also NSF Certified for Sport®, lactose-free, vegan-friendly, Kosher, and free from added sugars — a standard most recovery supplements don't meet.
Why do I need both a pillow and nutrition support?
Surgery impacts your body on two levels — physically, through the stress on your shoulder and surrounding tissue, and nutritionally, through the catabolic response that breaks down muscle and depletes healing resources. The pillow protects your shoulder externally while you sleep. The nutrition protocol supports the internal healing process. Addressing both gives your body the best possible environment to recover quickly and fully.
Is XR® third-party tested?
Yes — XR® is NSF Certified for Sport®, the most rigorous independent third-party supplement certification available, recognized by USADA, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and more. It verifies no banned substances, accurate label claims, no unsafe contaminant levels, and GMP-certified manufacturing.
Is it suitable for patients with dietary restrictions?
Yes — XR® is lactose-free, vegan-friendly, Kosher, and free from added sugars, artificial flavors, and dyes. At 70 calories per serving it is appropriate for patients managing caloric intake during a reduced-activity recovery period.
Is the pillow cover washable?
Yes — the hypoallergenic bamboo-blend cover is fully removable and machine washable.
When should I order?
At least one to two weeks before your surgery date so your pillow is set up and your nutrition protocol can begin one week before the procedure as recommended.
Is this bundle HSA/FSA eligible?
Yes, the full bundle is HSA/FSA eligible.
Is this a final sale item?
The XR® Nutrition products are final sale once opened. The Shoulder Sleeper Pillow may be returned within 30 days through our Loop Returns Portal — refund amounts are based on cover condition and packaging at the time of return and are finalized upon inspection. International sales are final.
