Finding the right position to sleep well is not always easy. Although everyone has their own answer and especially their preference to the question, certain sleeping positions will make it easier to fall asleep and limit back pain. First of all, you have to choose a position where the body will experience the least tension.
What Sleeping Position Should You Adopt To Avoid Back Pain?
Sleeping on your back will allow your spine and neck to be well aligned, but you need to have a good medicated mattress or pillow. However, in bed, this position can promote snoring or sleep apnea for those concerned.
Be careful with the position on the stomach which will force us to turn our head to the side and therefore not to respect a good alignment with the spine. In addition, the pressure inflicted on the chest will prevent you from breathing at your best.
On the side, the pressure on your body will be reduced. However, it is important not to have a position that is too high with the legs bent and use medicated mattress because the spine may not be in its natural alignment and cause tension, especially in the lower back.

Why Should You Not Neglect Your Pillow?
Also think about the quality of your pillow to fill the gap between your neck and shoulders. A soft pillow should be preferred, so that it fits the shape of the head and neck perfectly and thus avoids pain.
If you tend to sleep on your side, prefer a pillow or medicated mattress that is thick enough. For example, our square or rectangular latex model.
If you sleep on your stomach, choose a thin pillow to prevent your neck from twisting back unnecessarily. In this case, we offer you our butterfly model in memory foam. It is neither too soft nor too firm, and will allow you to slide your arm under and bring your forearm out to the sides. Its specially designed design guarantees you optimal rest for your cervicals.
Note that the replacement of a pillow occurs more often than that of a mattress. It is therefore advisable to replace it every 1 to 2 years depending on its level of wear and its range.
What Is The Importance Of The Duvet?
Indeed, it will allow you to regulate your body temperature at the level of the skin. The contact must be both gentle but also warm enough to prevent you from feeling a cold effect that could tense your muscles while you sleep.
Depending on your sleeping habits, you should know if you are more comfortable with a so-called "mid-season" duvet which will have a weight of 300g, or with a "winter" model with a larger weight of 400g, and which by definition will keep you warmer.
