Getting a good night sleep is often difficult, especially for those who struggle with joint pain. There are three main sleeping positions that most of us adapt to- side, stomach, and back, - some positions are better than others depending on the status of your health. Changing the way you sleep can be difficult, but Dr. James Huggins Jr. of Carolina Chiropractic Center is here to suggest tips for waking up pain-free.
Sleeping on one’s side can increase back pain and leave a person feeling stiff and uncomfortable in the hips and low back. For additional spine support, utilize a body pillow or place a pillow between the legs. This will keep the body in alignment and alleviate pressure off the hips. Sleeping on your back is the best position for keeping pain at bay. Placing a pillow under the lower back will also provide added support.
