Sleeping Strategies to Avoid Back Pain by Reynaldo Perez D.C. | Sep 14, 2021 | Blog, Healthcare, Reynaldo Perez D.C.
Trying to get out of bed after a night of restless sleep is difficult. A sore back from the start can make a person irritable and upset as soon as they get up. Luckily, some solutions can be tried before rushing off to the doctor for medication. How we sleep at night affects our back, spine, and neck. Making necessary improvements to our sleeping arrangement will reduce back pain while keeping the neck and spine right where they are supposed to be.
The proper mattress is key Sure, some mattresses are costly, but a poor mattress will not give a person what they need in terms of back and neck support. According to the American Chiropractic Association, a mattress of medium firmness is the best bet for those wanting to get a good night’s sleep. Mattresses that are too firm will only support the shoulders and hips of the person as their spine bends into the mattress. A soft mattress makes the shoulders and hips sink as the spine again bends away from the mattress.
