As your body changes, so do your sleep needs, and your usual sleeping position might not be the best option anymore. Here are a few physio-approved tips to help you rest more comfortably and safely:

✔️ Sleep on your left side – This improves blood flow to your baby and reduces pressure on vital organs.
✔️ Use a pillow between your knees – It helps keep your hips and pelvis aligned.
✔️ Support your bump – Place a small pillow or rolled-up towel under your belly for extra support.
✔️ Avoid sleeping on your back – Especially in later stages, this can put pressure on major blood vessels and lead to dizziness or discomfort.

Getting good rest is essential for you and your baby; small changes can make a big difference!

Thinking about switching up your pillow? 🛏️

Memory foam pillows are designed to contour to the natural curves of your head and neck, promoting proper cervical spine alignment during sleep. This helps reduce strain on muscles and joints, including those around your jaw, neck, and shoulders.

By evenly distributing pressure, memory foam can relieve tension in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and reduce muscle fatigue that often contributes to headaches and stiffness.

A memory foam pillow can support recovery and improve overall sleep quality for anyone managing TMJ dysfunction, neck pain, or poor sleep posture.

Let’s talk sleeping positions 💤

We all have a favourite way to fall asleep, but not all positions are created equal. Some can ease tension and support recovery, while others might worsen jaw, neck, or back pain.

In this series, we’re breaking down the pros and cons of the most common sleeping positions—and which one is best for your body.

So stay tuned and try not to fall asleep😉

Most people don’t realize how crucial soft palate muscles are for Eustacian tube function. Two of these muscles are responsible for opening the Eustachian tube, which is important for maintaining the pressure between the middle ear and atmosphere.

Symptoms of dysfunction include a sensation of being off balance, blocked ear sensation (aural fullness), tinnitus and even ear pain.

Our team has been diving deep into hands-on assessments to understand this complex system better, allowing us to develop targeted, highly effective treatments for patients with ear-related issues. This level of precision sets our approach apart! 👏

What an incredible two days! 💥

From jaw pain to tinnitus, migraines, eustachian tube dysfunction, and headaches — we dove deep into the complex and fascinating world of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

🧠 31 brilliant physiotherapists from London to Durban joined us for a jam-packed weekend of learning, connection, and clinical growth.

What a privilege to share this knowledge with such a passionate group. The TMJ may be small, but its impact is massive — and we’re just getting started. 💪
