Practice Good Posture - Even When Sleeping Most know good posture is important, but it doesn't apply
just to sitting and standing. The muscles and ligaments of your back relax and heal
themselves while you sleep. In order to protect your back, good posture is important
while sleeping.
Regardless of your sleeping position, try to keep your ears, shoulders, and hips aligned:
-
If you sleep on your back, a small pillow under the back of your knees will reduce
stress on your spine and support the natural curve in your lower back. The pillow
for your head should support your head, the natural curve of your neck, and your shoulders.
-
Sleeping on your stomach can create stress on the back because the spine can be put
out of position. Placing a flat pillow under the stomach and pelvis area can help
to keep the spine in better alignment. If you sleep on your stomach, a pillow for
your head should be flat, or sleep without a pillow.
-
If you sleep on your side, a firm pillow between your knees will prevent your upper
leg from pulling your spine out of alignment and reduce stress on your hips and lower
back. Pull your knees up slightly toward your chest. The pillow for your head should
keep your spine straight. A rolled towel or small pillow under your waist may also
help support your spine.
-
Insert pillows into gaps between your body and the mattress.
-
When turning in bed, remember not to twist or bend at the waist but to move your entire
body as one unit. Keep your belly pulled in and tightened, and bend your knees toward
the chest when you roll.
-
Keep your ears, shoulders, and hips aligned when turning as well as when sleeping.
What is the Best Sleep Position?
Sleeping on our back allows our spine to rest in a neutral position,
preventing neck and back pain. Also, as the face is not pressed against
the pillow, it avoids over wrinkling. However, this position is prone to
more snoring.
Sleeping on our stomach prevents snoring but makes it difficult to
maintain a neutral spine position. It puts pressure on our joints and
muscles, leading to numbness, neck and back pain, etc.
Sleeping on our side keeps the spine elongated and prevents neck and
back pain. Sleeping especially on the left side decreases acid reflux,
improves blood circulation, digestion, etc. However, side sleeping
presses our face against the pillow and increases the chances of
wrinkling. Some people even curl up tightly while sleeping on one side.
This restricts breathing.
Therefore, since all positions have advantages and disadvantages, there is no
best position. But if sleeping in a specific position is causing
problems, you can switch to other positions for better results.
