This will provide support to your spine and minimize neck strain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, it\u2019s important to invest in a supportive mattress, as a too-soft mattress may not provide enough support for your back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RELATED: <\/span><\/i><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ouraring.com\/blog\/how-to-choose-the-best-bedding\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Choose the Best Bedding for a Better Night\u2019s Sleep<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Sleeping on Your Side<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Side sleepers should also choose the right pillow to ensure maximum neck support. As with sleeping on your back, you\u2019ll want to ensure your pillows are higher under your neck than under your head so your neck muscles can relax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideally, your pillow should be a height that keeps your ears stacked vertically over each other. If your pillow is too high or too low, your neck will bend, and you may develop pain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, it\u2019s a good idea to keep your chin in a neutral position \u2014 avoid tucking it, as this brings your neck out of alignment with the rest of your spine. For better alignment through your lower back and hips, try placing a pillow between your knees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">READ MORE: <\/span><\/i><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ouraring.com\/blog\/best-sleeping-position-for-lower-back-pain\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Best Sleeping Position for Lower Back Pain<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Worst Sleeping Position for Neck Pain<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-937081\" src=\"https:\/\/ouraring.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/00_Hero-16.png\" alt=\"Man lying on side in bed: Best sleeping position for neck pain\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bad news for stomach sleepers: this is the worst position for neck pain because it forces you to turn your head to one side or the other, preventing you from keeping your spine aligned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, sleeping on your stomach with too many pillows can cause you to overextend your neck and upper back, which can contribute to more neck pain.
