yes it does grow, but during the day it will shrink.
Yes
Yes, it aligns your spine.
Memory foam pillows do indeed keep the spine in alignment while sleeping as being kept at the head does this exact thing to the rest of the body. It is quite a miraclious invention.
Yes! Think of it this way ur spine is the length of the whole upper body...your spine goes from neck to coccyx! Your thigh is only 1/2 or 1/4 of your spine.
The best sleeping position for a slightly herniated disk is on an individual's back. Sleeping on the back extends the vertebrae and relieves the pressure on the spine.
I believe that eating before going to bed tends to keep you awake rather than sleeping longer.
The longer you're been awake generally. When you wake up, your spine is relaxed and spread out but as the day goes on, gravity compacts you and your spine.
That means that you no longer have a curve in your spine (scoliosis) .. congrats. i hope mine goes away :*) but until then :'(
Yes, it can be harmful for a baby's spine to sleep in a swing for extended periods of time as it may not provide adequate support and could lead to potential spine misalignment or discomfort. It is recommended to limit the time a baby spends in a swing for sleeping.
Yes. Sleeping with a proper therapeutic/memory foam pillow can help to align your spine during sleep. Having the spine properly alligned can help prevent neck and back injury.
In space there is little or no gravity. Therefore you body does not have the pressure of gravity pressing down on it. After sustained periods of time, the muscles around your spine strengthen in the new position. When you return to earth you spine can be longer than when you left.
Positioning can cause nerves to be pinched in your cervical spine of the neck; usually your c3-c5 vertebrae. Too many pillows under your head or sleeping with your arms above or under your body will do this as well.
