睡眠姿势秘诀:你的睡眠方式可能会影响你的健康

Share:

根据睡眠科学家凯特·莱德勒博士的说法,你的睡眠方式会影响你的健康和睡眠质量。她解释说,有些人可能没有首选的睡眠姿势,而另一些人则有,而且这种情况可能会随着时间的推移而改变。

以某些姿势睡觉可能会导致或恶化健康问题。例如,正面睡觉可能会由于脊柱错位而导致颈部、臀部或背部疼痛。这个姿势还会导致颈部紧张,因为头部通常向一侧移动。此外,仰睡会加剧睡眠呼吸暂停,这种情况会导致睡眠期间的呼吸困难。

莱德勒博士建议,那些因侧睡而感到肩部疼痛的人可以使用放在膝盖之间的特殊枕头,以保持身体对齐并减轻肩部压力。对于颈部疼痛的人来说,扁平的枕头可能有助于保持颈部、脊柱和臀部的对齐。

整晚在肚子上睡觉会导致颈部疼痛,并可能导致胃部问题,例如胃酸倒流。患有慢性疼痛的人在努力寻找舒适的姿势时可能会睡得不安。这种躁动会减少他们获得的深度恢复性睡眠量,从而导致睡眠不佳和疼痛敏感度增加。

孕妇可能会发现左侧睡觉更舒服,因为这样可以缓解紧张情绪和压力。还建议胃酸倒流患者使用此姿势。

但是,莱德勒博士强调,对睡眠姿势没有严格的规定。重要的是不要为此感到压力,因为这会导致睡眠不佳。她还指出,在床垫、羽绒被和枕头方面,没有放之四海而皆准的解决方案,因为每个人的体型和偏好都不同。她建议在购买床垫之前先试用一下,以确保它合身。
