A support apparatus for a head of a user placed in a wash basin maintains the neck of the user in a neutral position, thereby minimizing head or neck injuries. The support apparatus includes a base member with a cushion member to receive the head of the user and a support arm to contact a side wall of the wash basin, a leg member with a shaft rotatably mounted to the base member, the leg member able to adjust so the distance between the base member and the leg member is sufficient to enable the bottom portion of the leg member to be in contact with a drain of the wash basin, and a locking mechanism slidably mounted to the shaft to secure the leg member to the base member.
