Who am I? A side sleeper and sleep positions.

I am a side sleeper. My right side is best. I face my wife this way and seem to fall asleep here first and go back to it throughout the night. I also sleep on my left side, and what I call left side-stomach and right side-stomach. My last best sleep position is right side-back.

Body position is important in finding comfort. These are mine. Four positions plus a one! What are yours?

  1. Sleep postures can improve pain if you know what you are doing. In my practice I suggest some sleep on their stomach to relieve low back pain. This advice is not for everyone to be sure, but those I recommend this for, find really good relief. Usually the position is not directly on one's belly but kind of side and stomach combined. One side will usually feel a bit better than when lying on the other side. Lie on the stomach/ side position that feels best but do it for short periods of time when you first begin this posture. Go easy. Try it when you first go to bed or just before you get up in the morning. This is similar to a type of therapy we do in the clinic called McKenzie therapy but that another story.
