I always get asked what the best position to sleep in is.
As always, I come with options!

 Two options: for optimal spine and muscle support and oxygen flow for better breathing.

1.      Sleep on your back with a pillow under your knees, a 2-3 inch towel roll under your neck or a thin pillow under your head…sometimes a combo of the two. This all depends on how you feel and what makes you most comfortable. 

2.     Sleep on your side with a pillow between your knees, make sure the pillow under your head is high enough to keep a 90-degree angle at the neck and shoulder junction.

 
PRO TIP: Sleep on your back, place the pillow or a 3-4 inch folded towel behind the shoulder blades. This allows spinal decompression and muscle release/stretch of the upper back and neck regions.  Do this up-to 20 minutes before falling asleep and again once you wake up. This is amazing for relaxation + posture!

***BONUS***
The follow up questions are always about pillows + mattresses! 

Support for spine and muscles are always my number one priority as this is what will allow for more restful sleep, better breathing, true comfort and relaxation. With that said, a firm mattress is always my recommendation; no pillow top or memory foam (as comfortable as they may seem), they do not offer the support the body needs.

My go-to pillow is the Therapeutica Pillow. It offers you support and structure in the upper back and neck muscles and is measured to fit your body build. This pillow allows for side and back sleeping, supports proper posture, spinal curvature, and muscle relaxation. Think of it as an orthotic for your neck and back.
