Sleeping posture is very important for brain function, physical recovery, prevention of neck pain and reducing the chances of developing poor posture.
Having the right sleeping posture for yourself can reduce the likely hood of progressing cervical kyphosis which is a hum in your neck and improve sleep apnea.
In this video, I will discuss how-to sleep and how not to sleep with your pillow.

Im always trying to find educational articles and videos for help with my chronic pain. I never found them until now! Thanks for showing what’s happening inside the body and giving good descriptions as to why something may not work!

I stopped my neck pain by sleeping with a travel neck pillow. I got a smaller one that wasn't to bulky and snaps closed so that when I turn over it stays around my neck. I still sleep on a regular pillow with it wraped around my neck. I think it works well because it fills the void around my neck giving me great support. I had pain on one side of my neck from behind my ear down to my shoulder and at the base of my head. I would awake to neck pain and headaches almost daily. I told my aunt one day and she recommended the travel neck pillow and I am so thankful. My neck pain has been gone ever since.

What kind of travel pillow.

@cherio70 10 ай бұрын

@@terrik8581 just a basic neck pillow that wraps around your neck and fastens with a snap or velcro so it stays put when you turn over...the brand I am using is bcozzy...google it. I actually bought a smaller one so there is not to much bulk around my neck....you want to still be able to lay your head down against a regular pillow while wearing the neck pillow. You are really just filling in the space around your neck for support. It will keep the curve in your neck when you sleep on your back also. Maintaining the curve in your neck helps with pain. You can also try wrapping a towel around your neck for stability but you will need to find a way to make it stay put while you are sleeping.

schlafen sie dann auf den rücken ? Danke

@cherio70 3 ай бұрын

@@MkVarietype Ich schlafe auf der Seite und auf dem Rücken. Ich beginne zuerst auf dem Rücken und wechsle dann auf die Seite. Das Schlafen auf dem Rücken ist gut für den Körper, da Sie in dieser Position weniger Druckpunkte haben. Sie müssen jedoch darauf achten, dass Ihre Knie, Ihr unterer Rücken und Ihr Nacken richtig gestützt werden. Es ist nicht gut, wenn Sie schnarchen oder an Schlafapnoe leiden.

Thank you for the video and good advice. I use a C-shaped travel pillow turned backwards (the wrong way round), so that the two ends form a hollow that (sort of) cradles the back of my head. I've slept on this cushion for many years, and also use it to sleep on my side, though I don't sleep right on my shoulder -- I have a small cushion that I wedge against my back, so that I sleep partly on my back, partly on my side.

I always make sure to inlcude my shoulders on the pillow so my neck wont be flexed. Flexed neck can make you snore. As a recovery nurse who deals with airway all the time, it is better to have the neck on neutral or slightly extended like you're sniffing the morning air, so your airway is "open", and less chances of tongue obstruction.

I can’t believe I actually used the rolled towel method instinctively to sleep when I have neck and shoulder aches. It just feels so good. Talking about side sleeping, it’s really ostracised by those influencers who are into anti-ageing. They discouraged side sleeping, which is so comfortable and natural (like foetal position in the womb). These influencers promote face up position but it’s really uncomfortable (at least for me).

Those curved pillows are great! I am a small lady and got one that adjusts to my neck height. I am blessed with a long neck, but since I am so small I still need a pillow that isn't tall. I sleep like a bear using this pillow and my neck pain (herniated disc) is getting much better. Now the pain is mostly stiffness and with stretching things are much better and I can train with weights at the gym again. The adjustable pillows are the best and I highly recommend them.

Then added snaps at the corners and the center (me being ocd about it lol). Tuck it in a small pillow case. Turn it over so snaps are on the mattress side. Good to go. I struggled with my pillow for years until I figured this out. Tootsie roll for my neck 😂
