Sleep Posture Matters for Children, Too
Poor sleep posture doesn’t just affect adults. In children, it can interfere with physical and neurological development.
Potential Risks for Children:
Spinal problems, including scoliosis
Sleep-disordered breathing
Chronic muscle pain
Behavioral and cognitive issues from poor rest
Ensure Your Child Has:
A supportive, age-appropriate mattress
A suitable pillow for their size and sleep habits
Consistent and healthy sleep routines
Habits That Promote Healthier Sleep Posture
Small adjustments can make a big impact over time. Try these habits for better, healthier sleep:
Keep your head, neck, and spine aligned
Choose a low-profile pillow that doesn’t elevate your head too much
Sleep on your side with slightly bent knees
Avoid falling asleep on couches or in awkward, inclined positions
