Pillow for neck pain?!


Question: Pillow for neck pain.?
3 times in 5yrs I have woken up with a neck pain that gets gradually worse and I have been bed-ridden for up to 3 days. I think it is the way I sleep. I would like to know what pillow is good for keeping your neck straight whilst in bed. There are so many to choose from I have no idea, HELP!Health Question & Answer


Answers:
The pillow might help but inversion therapy will work better for spinal alignment. Inversion therapy uses the effects of gravity to weight down your spine and stretch it out. As this happens your spine is allowed to decompress and as that happens it relieves the pinched nerves in your spine. Inversion therapy causes your muscles of your core (the hips, thighs, buttocks, back muscles and most importantly the stomach muscles) to stretch out. As they stretch the knots and spasms leave and when these muscles are all relaxed they loosen their grip on your lower back muscles, your spine and most importantly your neck and pelvis, allowing them to go back into natural alignment. As they align this will cause your sciatica to vanish. It's like if your car is out of alignment it pulls to one side and screws up the tires, it's the same with your back. Inversion therapy will help align your spine much quicker than some pillow while you're laying on your back. Hope this helps.Health Question & Answer
