We're going to show you this little trick to adopt the most comfortable position for restful sleep.

You've tried everything, a new mattress , a good neck pillow , you've followed all our advice to help you fall asleep (bedroom temperature, etc.) and yet nothing works, you wake up feeling unrested and in pain?

2. The 5 benefits of a pillow between the legs

Discover the 5 benefits of sleeping with a Bdreams pillow between your knees:

• Proper spinal alignment:

Side sleepers, who make up 75% of the population, need proper support; otherwise, their spine can be bent or twisted. If they stay this way all night, it can cause joint strain. A pillow between the legs, placed at knee level, helps alleviate this tension by ensuring perfect spinal alignment. It is also recommended for people suffering from sciatica, lower back pain, or muscle stiffness.

• Improves blood circulation:

It improves blood circulation. Just like the trick of elevating your feet, the slight elevation the pillow creates between your legs will help facilitate blood flow through the vena cava, which is a major vein carrying blood to the heart and back.

• Distributes body weight evenly:

The pillow helps relieve pressure by keeping your knees aligned. This ensures that your hips and pelvic area are aligned.

• Reduces pressure on the hips:

Sleeping on your side also helps reduce pressure on your spine. The problem is that this position can put pressure on your hips, so a pillow is the best way to relieve this pressure.

• Limits the risk of sleep apnea:

Side sleeping is also helpful for those with breathing disorders, such as sleep apnea. In this sleeping position, the pillow will help your airway become less restricted. Keeping your spine aligned reduces neck and back pain, which in turn reduces the risk of sleep apnea.

3. Which pillow should I choose?

When choosing your pillow, you should choose a fairly thick pillow, at least 10 cm thick, but not too thick. It should fit perfectly between your legs. You can opt for rectangular pillows, like our Ergonomic, which will easily fit under your knees.

Finally, our Memory Foam pillow is made of viscoelastic foam and adapts perfectly to the shape of your legs, enveloping them in softness and comfort.
