PAY ATTENTION TO
HOW YOU SLEEP
Keep an eye on how you’re sleeping on the
back to keep back pain at bay. Put pillows
beneath your head and shoulders. And then
place something under your knees which will
stabilize your body’s curves. You also want
to sleep on a mattress that is comfortable.
If you have back problems, be sure to sleep
in the proper position. You should sleep
with a cervical pillow beneath your neck.
This will allow your head to relax, while a
traditional pillow forces the head forward.
Sleeping on your stomach can exacerbate
back issues. This pushes your spine out of
its natural position. It is best to lie on your
back with a pillow supporting your knees
while you sleep. You can also roll up a towel
and put it behind your neck for support.
This will protect the curvature of your spine.
