Five good reasons to sleep with a pillow between your knees
Would you like to benefit your back, hips, circulation and breathing while you sleep? Then sleep with a firm pillow between your knees. It helps straighten out your body – while also aiding muscle recovery. Here are five good reasons to choose the Fossflakes KneeAnkle for the job.
The pillow is just 24 x 68 cm in size, so it doesn’t take up much space. But the KneeAnkle support pillow from Fossflakes can make a huge difference for you and your body. Just take a look:
#1 Improves spine and hip alignment
When you sleep on your side, you put unnecessary pressure on your hips and shoulders. With the KneeAnkle in place between your knees, you keep your spine straight and your hips parallel, relieving pressure on your pelvis. And some people even find they fall asleep faster.
#2 Reduces lower back strain
If you often wake up with a sore lower back – or are generally plagued by lower back pain – it could be because you sleep on your stomach. Instead, try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your legs. This will help to reduce strain on your lower back.
#3 Relieves muscle cramps
Whether you enjoyed an intense workout at the gym or slept in an awkward position, you risk waking up with painful muscle cramps. But did you know that if your muscles are given the opportunity to stretch out, you can wave goodbye to muscle cramps? The KneeAnkle helps your body rest in a better position and your muscles achieve optimal relief.
#4 Improves circulation
Tingling or pricking sensations in the legs and swollen ankles in the morning can be signs of poor circulation, and elevating your legs during the night can help. Place a firm pillow such as the KneeAnkle under your knees or legs when lying on your back and feel the difference.
#5 Opens up the airways
Do you sleep with someone who snores? Sleeping on their back may be the cause. Gift the snorer (or yourself) with a KneeAnkle, which forces the body onto its side and opens up the airways by keeping the body in better balance during sleep.
