Sleep problems can make life difficult. Many people don’t realize that poor spinal alignment might be the reason they toss and turn at night. At Nicali Sports Medicine, we help patients understand how their spine health affects sleep quality. And more importantly we show them how to fix it.
The Sleep-Spine Connection
Your spine position during sleep affects your entire body. When you sleep with poor alignment, your muscles stay tense all night. This tension prevents the deep, restful sleep your body needs to recover. Think of it like trying to relax in an uncomfortable chair – it’s just not going to work well.
Common Sleep Issues
Many patients come to us with familiar problems. They wake up with stiff necks, have lower back pain in the morning, or just can’t find a comfortable sleep position. Sometimes, they’ve tried different mattresses and pillows, but the problems continue. This usually means there’s a deeper issue with their spinal alignment.
How We Help
Our approach starts simple. We look at how you sleep and what might be causing problems. Then, we work on fixing any alignment issues through gentle adjustments. We also look at your sleeping setup – your mattress, pillows, and sleep position – to make sure everything supports good spine health.
Better Sleep Habits
Good sleep starts before bedtime. We teach patients easy stretches and relaxation techniques they can do at home. Small changes in how you prepare for sleep can make a big difference in how well you rest.
