Your sleep setup might be the hidden reason you wake up stiff or sore. Here are 3 simple ways to protect your spine while you sleep:

1️⃣ Use a supportive mattress – Look for one that keeps your spine aligned (not too soft, not too firm).
2️⃣ Sleep in a spine-friendly position – Sleeping on your back with a pillow under your knees or on your side with a pillow between your knees helps reduce strain.
3️⃣ Watch your pillow height – Your pillow should keep your neck aligned with your spine—not pushed forward or tilted.

Your spine works hard all day—give it the rest it deserves at night.
