π Happy International Sleep Day! π€
Did you know that quality sleep is essential for recovery, performance, and overall well-being? As chiropractors, we see firsthand how spinal health, posture, and muscle tension affect your sleep. Poor alignment and stress can lead to restless nights, while proper care can help you wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free!
Here are 5 chiropractic-approved tips for better sleep:
β
Sleep in a neutral position β Back or side sleeping is best! Avoid stomach sleeping, which strains your spine and neck.
β
Support your spine β Use a pillow that keeps your neck aligned and a mattress that supports your body type.
β
Unwind before bed β Reduce screen time, stretch gently, and try deep breathing to relax your nervous system.
β
Stay active, but not too late β Regular movement (like running, cycling, or swimming) helps improve sleep, but avoid intense workouts right before bedtime.
β
Check your posture daily β Poor posture during the day leads to tension that affects your sleep. Chiropractic care can help keep your spine in top shape!
