What is the best position to sleep in? | CWDA030
In the 30th episode of Convos w/ Dr. Andy, Dr. Andy and I delve into the subject of sleep positions and their impact on restfulness. Patients often seek advice from medical professionals regarding pillows, mattresses, and sleep postures, particularly when they experience discomfort or spinal issues.
Dr. Andy underscores the significance of tailoring one's sleep position to their individual spine structure, emphasizing the importance of maintaining proper spinal curves like lordosis and kyphosis. The discussion also touches upon the relationship between sleep positions and neck pain, cautioning against sleeping on one's back with the head turned to the side.
Furthermore, advice is given against prolonged periods in a single sleep position, as it can lead to muscle imbalances and neck/shoulder tension. To enhance sleep quality, the importance of maintaining neutrality in the head and neck area is stressed, with practical solutions such as breathing techniques, stretching exercises, and adjusting pillow placement to foster a neutral spine alignment.
Ultimately, the main focus is on prioritizing quality sleep, with valuable insights and guidance provided for improved sleep positions and overall restfulness.
