- It is proven that good night’s sleep is important for numerous health benefits. But what is the best sleep position to get a good night’s rest? The best position is to sleep on your back, according to a new study.
- It prevents neck and back pain, reduces acid reflux and minimizes wrinkles.
- Side—sleeping, however, tends to constrict the shoulder and neck muscles due to the weight of the head on the arm all night.
- Side—sleeping also might worsen facial wrinkles and increase breast sagging over time.
- The worst position to sleep in is on your stomach.
- Stomach—sleeping makes it difficult to maintain a neutral position with your spine. It puts pressure on joints and muscles, which can irritate nerves and lead to pain, numbness and tingling.
