  • Your body also repairs itself while you sleep. The healing of wounds and bone and muscle injuries takes longer than usual when the quality of your sleep is poor. Read more…

The Best and Worst Sleeping Positions

September 13th, 2009 Amit Sahrawat No comments
  • Sleeping on Your Back
    Sleeping on your back is great position for sleeping because you can sleep in a position that support your head and neck and lower back area. To combat any type of lower back stiffness or discomfort, sleep with a few pillows or a wedge, such as a knee elevator, under your knees for optimal comfort. If you use a cervical support neck pillow, such as the cervical traction neck pillow, you can allow your head and neck to be in the correct position where there is least stress placed on your cervical spine.
