Advice on sleeping on your side, stomach and back
http://www.thegoosecompany.co.za/Goose-Down-Pillows.html
Side Sleeper: When lying on one's side, your feather pillow should
support the head and neck such that the spine maintains a straight and
natural horizontal line. Weight should be evenly distributed so as not
to create unnatural bending or pressure. The width of your shoulders
should determines the firmness of your pillow. Placing a pillow
between the legs (from the knees to the ankles) reduces twisting of
the spine.
Stomach Sleeper: The pillow should be relatively flat, or the head
should rest directly on the mattress, so that the head and neck are
not turned unnaturally to either side. Place a relatively flat pillow
under the stomach and hips to help the spine keep its natural
alignment. Avoid a saggy mattress.
Back Sleeper : Your pillow should support the natural curvature of
the spine, with enough support under the head, neck, and shoulders.
Avoid a pillow that is too firm. Go with a medium firmness if you keep
the pillow more directly under your neck or a slightly softer pillow
if you sleep with the pillow closer to the top of your head. Placing
a pillow underneath the knees straightens the back.
Goose Down Pillow
To touch, feel and sleep on a goose down pillow is something everybody
should experience! As most physiotherapists would tell you, feather
and down pillows are preferable to synthetic ones as they mould better
to the shape of the neck.
