Optimizing Sleep Posture
Improving sleeping habits is another vital aspect of correcting forward head posture. A cervical pillow, specifically designed to support the natural curves of the head and neck, helps keep the neck in a neutral position during sleep, reducing forward flexion. Alternately, sleeping on the back with a rolled towel under the neck can achieve similar results. Although there isn’t definitive evidence favoring one type of pillow over another, personal comfort should guide the choice. Consistently implementing these adjustments in sleep posture contributes to overall efforts in maintaining the neck muscles in appropriate tones. [3]
