Q&A: What is THE ULTIMATE SLEEPING POSTURE?
Question by chasvanblom: What is THE ULTIMATE SLEEPING POSTURE?
What is THE ULTIMATE SLEEPING POSTURE?
I snore like a Banshee wolf! if I sleep lying flat on my back.
In aim to cure this breathing condition, I place my pillows underneath my knees instead of behind my head. This not only keeps me lying on my back as I sleep, keeping my head level with my shoulders helps control my snoring.
I’m wondering what this “raised-knee” position might create in my posture.
I hope it is not causing any (maybe a CIRCULATORY-issue to my legs?) while I sleep.
Should I try some other posture to control my snoring? – Sleeping on my sides CREATES a breathing problem, which makes me snore!
Lying on my stomach is no good because I get sore shoulders lying in this position.
Thanks for suggestions / ideas I can try.

They actually have pillows that are created to be used under the knees for people with certain back issues (for example, I have no curve in my lower back, so those help when I lay on my back, though I do sleep on my side) I would suggest a small (not very high) pillow to support the weight of the head, otherwise, after a few nights you might find that you wake with a tight neck or shoulders from strain on the neck.
