THE PRACTICE
Latest Clinic News:
Feeling fatigued throughout the day? It may be due to poor spinal posture the night before.
Proper sleeping ergonomics is vital to the overall health of a person. In fact, it sets precedence for their entire day. Sleep ergonomics refers to the posture and position during sleeping. The healthiest position for the average person is on their side with knees drawn into their chest, with a pillow between their legs. Arms should be crossed in a braced position with a pillow between then.
If a person must sleep on their back, there should be a pillow placed under the knees in order to maintain the natural curves of the spine. A small rolled pillow may also be helpful when placed under the low back. The worst position for spinal integrity is stomach sleeping. Stomach sleeping puts strain on the cervical strain which in turn compresses nerves, creates muscles imbalances and pain. If this type of sleeping posture is all that works for you, place a pillow under the abdomen with no head pillow.
Pregnant women should not sleep on their backs or on their stomachs. This creates increased stress on the body creating breathing difficulties, digestive problems, hemorrhoids, and decreased BP from pressure on the vasculature.
As far as mattresses and pillows are concerned, memory foam is best. Mattresses should be flipped every few months and replaced every 5 to 7 years. Pillows should be small and enough to keep the cervical spine in a neutral position in order to support the head, neck and shoulders. The pillows should be hypoallergenic.
By performing these few tasks, people should notice an increased quality of sleep due to limiting strain on the spine and musculature, creating less nerve interference.
