The Best Sleeping Position for Neck Pain

https://www.familyhealthchiropractic.com

Sleeping position plays a major role in the development of neck pain. Hi. I’m Dr. Daniel and in this video I want to share with you a few tips on sleeping positions to help with neck pain.

Sleeping position can certainly irritate the nerves of the spine leading to pain and inflammation. So how -you sleep can certainly impact how you feel throughout the day.

First, never sleep on your stomach because this stresses the lower back, causes the neck to be turned 45 degrees to one side, and puts significant stress on the organs of your body.

The best sleeping position is going to be on your side or on your back.

If you’re sleeping on your side, then make sure that your hips and neck are in a neutral position.

This can be done by using a pillow between your knees and making sure that the pillow you use for your head is neither too tick or too think. Your nose should be mid-line with the rest of your spine.

If you’re going to be sleeping on your back, then again, make sure your pillow is not too thick that it’s raising your head or causing forward head posture.

Also make sure it’s not so thin that your head sinks into the mattress causing extension of your mid or low back.

In some cases, it may be more comfortable if you can slightly angle your mid back and head up.

You can do this by taking a few pillows and stacking them underneath you… or if you invest in a mattress that can elevate.

So there you go… make sure you follow these guidelines if you want to avoid neck or back pain caused by sleeping positions.
