Choose a pillow based on your sleep position:
-
Side sleepers: Medium to firm, thicker pillow
-
Back sleepers: Medium support, not too high
-
Stomach sleepers: Very thin pillow (or none)
Memory foam or ergonomic pillows can also help maintain natural curvature.
🩺 When to Take It Seriously
If you experience:
-
Persistent neck pain
-
Numbness or tingling in arms
-
Ongoing headaches
It’s worth consulting a healthcare professional.
🌙 The Bottom Line
Sometimes the thing you rest your head on every night could be quietly causing discomfort.
Sleep should restore your body — not strain it.
If you wake up sore more often than refreshed…
It might be time to rethink what you’re sleeping with.
