Doc, I have a question. I have a hard time really choosing the right pillow for a straight neck, but I can’t remember if you had a video that recommended not use any pillow at all. I have a pretty very good firm memory mattress, but I have just chosen to not use any pillow at all because I couldn’t find the right height. It’s either I’m going to wake up with neck pain or I use a flat pillow which I don’t know that’s good for a straight neck . So what I’ve done is, I don’t sleep with a pillow at all. However, when I wake up in the middle of the night and wanting to sleep on my side, then I grab my pillow, put it on my head and I have another pillow that I put in between my legs just to align my spine. Thoughts?..

I literally fell asleep last night looking at my cellphone in that horrible position. I woke up at 3am. My neck felt awful. Your KZread video popped up on my feed & I watched. I immediately changed my pillow like you instructed and woke up this morning to that great clicking that happens when your spine is realigning. My posture was also better- you’re a genius! Thank you! 😊

This is great advice but note that if you get headaches / migraines from a tense neck it can trigger a headache. I tried it and since it re-aligns and strengthens the neck, it also tightens the neck. The neck tightening triggered a nasty headache for me. To avoid it take your headache medicine and a hot shower where you focus the massager on your neck to loosen it. Then ice it and sleep. Fixing your posture just manage the potential headaches until it adjusts fully.

People really don't pay much attention to their posture I happen to be one of them. And now I'm 30 with a hunched back and neck and it looks horrible it's really easy to make your neck hunched if you keep the same position for over an hour and it's extremely dangerous. Now I just can't go to the way I was before I'll try doing this at night and see what will happen thanks for the video.

It can, but it depends on the firmness of your mattress. A pillow under your knees can help create a mild flattening of the lumbar curve which may help with APT.
