Is It Better To Sleep On Your Back?

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a Yes or No answer! The answer is, Yes and No.

It's Up To Your Body

Generally speaking, lying on your back creates the most consistent support for your spine. Your muscles and tissues can relax evenly in all directions. Like a baby, or a kitten napping on its back, you can just lie flat and your musculoskeletal system will be all lined up for restful sleep.

Generally, yes. Then again, no.
