How Chiropractic Can Improve Your Sleep

Health and Wellness

Summer is officially here, and that means we’re enjoying longer days. For some of us, it also means less sleep. If you find you are not enjoying the restful sleep you should be getting, chiropractic may be able to help. Not only will our team here at Williamsburg Chiropractic adjust you spine, allowing the body to naturally restore itself, but we can also help with several other topics including:

  • Stretching and exercises
  • Mattress and pillow choice
  • Sleep positions

Your Evening Routine Matters

If you are seeking help to improve your sleep schedule, know that your evening routine matters. We can help you establish a relaxing evening routine that includes stretching and relaxation methods that allow muscles to release tension so you can enjoy better sleep.

Adjust Your Sleep Position

Your sleep position impacts not only your sleep, but your body as a whole. For stomach sleepers (and we know you’re out there!), it is actually one of the worst positions for your body, as it does nothing to help the body naturally adjust itself. Sleeping on your stomach causes your joints, muscles, and back to be more restless. It can also strain parts all over your body. Try adjusting your sleep position to your side or back.

How Are Your Pillow and Mattress?

Some prefer a softer mattress while others favor something firmer. When it comes to back support, firm mattress are essential. Softer mattresses sag and allow your spine to shift as you sleep. They also strain the body. As one area sinks lower than the other, it allows the body to put strain on the areas that are around the sunken mattress. Most people don’t want to spend a lot of money on a mattress, but the investment is worth it.

Along with a good mattress, you also want a good pillow. As much as we’d all prefer to reach for the less expensive option or the soft fluffy pillow to rest our head, firmer is once again the better choice. A firm pillow allows your neck and head to remain in proper alignment while sleeping which keeps strain away.

Maintain Function!

Just as we regularly stress, having your body function properly will improve many areas of your life, including your ability to rest well. Regular chiropractic adjustments will help your body restore proper function and increase your energy. If you’d like to improve your sleeping patterns, contact us to see if chiropractic can help.

I have been going to Williamsburg Chiropractic for two months. It is clear that the doctors at this practice are dedicated to helping their patients feel the best that they can. I love that the intake process includes taking x-rays, as it provided me with a clear picture of my structural imbalances and helps me understand more deeply how the adjustments are helping to realign my spine. There are also incremental body scan check-ins which reveal the progress my nervous system is making as a result of the adjustments over time. The office is also very efficient with wait times. Highly recommend!

Williamsburg Chiropractic is a quality practice all around.The front desk staff are always kind and responsive, Dr. Hoffman & Dr. Thomas are informative and consistently demonstrate expertise in their field, and I've never had a single billing issue (even while using my medical insurance plan).I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Williamsburg Chiropractic if you're experiencing any pain or discomfort - no matter the severity - as they may be able to help!

I suffered from a pinched nerve from my neck running down my arm for 3 months. It stopped me from working out which I had been doing daily. Went to a physical therapist for 2 of the 3 months. Did acupuncture regularly. Visited a neurologist. I did not want to take any medication to get rid of the pain, but nothing was working. Until I found Williamsburg Chiropractic.After very thorough examination and 1 week of treatment, we had established the reason for my pinched nerve and the pain had reduced by 60%. 2 weeks after that the pain was completely gone and I am now back to my routine of lifting heavy weights. BIG BIG thank you to the amazing people at Williamsburg Chiropractic. I am forever grateful and VERY HIGHLY recommend them to anyone suffering from any sort of body aches.

I tweaked my back weightlifting, and it was pretty painful to say the least. Within one session with Dr. Hoffman, I was in significantly less pain, and in two sessions in two days I was near back to normal. If you're debating a holistic route to pain, this is a great place to start. They x-ray you so they know exactly what they're working with and are very patient with explaining everything going on with your body. Would recommend!
