| Lying
Posture
Good
reclining
posture
is
not
so
complicated,
thank
goodness.
There
are
two
recommended
sleeping
positions:
on
your
side
or
on
your
back.
Side.
When
sleeping
or
lying
on
your
side,
place
a
pillow
under
your
head
to
support
your
neck
and
to
keep
your
head
level
with
the
rest
of
your
spine.
Place
a
small
pillow
between
your
knees,
keep
your
knees
bent,
and
square
your
hips
so
they
are
perpendicular
to
the
mattress
-
this
eliminates
any
unnecessary
stress
on
your
spine.
Back.
When
sleeping
on
your
back,
place
a
soft
pillow
under
your
head
and
shoulders,
a
rolled-up
towel
under
your
neck,
and
a
pillow
under
your
knees
to
support
all
three
spinal
curves.

- When
getting
out
of
bed,
start
on
your
side,
swing
your
legs
to
the
floor,
and
raise
yourself
up
slowly.
Use
your
arms
to
support
your
weight.
- Never
sleep
on
your
stomach.
This
position
puts
too
much
stress
on
your
spine
because
it
does
not
allow
the
spine
to
retain
any
of
its
natural
curves.
- Invest
in
a
mattress
that
will
support
the
spine
and
help
maintain
the
same
shape
as
a
person
with
good
upright
posture.
Consult
with
your
chiropractic
physician
on
this
issue,
as
it
can
be
a
big
investment
and
you
want
what's
best
for
you.
|
These
simple
changes
will
set
you
up
for
a
good
night's
rest.
You
will
find
yourself
waking
with
more
energy
and
fewer
aches
and
pains.
Sleepwell!
