You hardly ever hear anyone talking seriously about HOW to sleep it's always just how long you should sleep, great video.
Thank you :)
No, thank YOU!
The two most famous physical therapist on the Internet!
in their opinion, of course :) love from bosnia
LOVE IT!
In your opinion of course Elite!
So catchy
I need yall
I still remember when I used to sleep in any position ....with any pillow.. on any mattress and wake up feeling great. Ahh what a memory
Youth lol
Holy shit same
fuck getting old sucks so goddmamn much.
All you need is a MEMORY foam. Will send you right BACK!
@@BahramKheradmand which one do you have? If it's a topper how thick?
Close to 5 years ago (and still going) you guys improved my life with pillow between the knees side sleeping. Thanks!
330am this saved me. Omg I already feel the difference. I can go back to sleep now
Hope you slept well :)
If only it were that easy for me 😢
We love Liz! She is such a good sport! This was a great episode. Thank you Bob and Brad.!
Liz is Great! You are welcome :)
I did not like the sexual comment about her hair really not called for.
They touched on a very important subject which is almost ignored by most, its not just the length of your sleep but also the quality of your sleep. Wish every one a restful sleep and thank you very much Docs.
I use your advice making a canal between 2 pillows for my shoulder to go in and it works GREAT! Thank you Bob & Brad : ))
Liz is great she is such a good model for your videos this was a really great video on how to keep the neck and back free of pain while sleeping I will definitely be trying all of your techniques thanks again bob and brad for your expertise 👍😊
I've been having the most terrible neck pain for the last 7 days. I heard you guy's are the best so I'm hoping to get some help here! With no hesitation I've subscribed!!
Did your neck pain get better?
You are two most important people on the internet
Love you two ❤❤
You guys (and Liz) are a hoot. I've been suffering from fibromyalgia for years. I appreciate your advice. You have a new fan Thanks.
Thanks with your help re: sciatica management. You’ve been a lot of help!
Glad that we could help :)
Thanks Bob & Brad! It's great how you all have an inspiring quote at the beginning too!
Thanks Guys! And a special thanks to Liz. What a good Sport she is!
She is great! :)
Thank you very much. This information has been so helpful. You're two great therapists. If you don't mind me you're the human version of Earnie and Bert, in this case you agree to each other, lol. I experienced an excruciating pain on my back and your video with your simple explanation helped me ease it. Love u.
Tonight I slept on the side on your guidance and it felt super good. Never slept that well before. I always slept on my back and it caused tension headaches, a dry throat and mouth and back pain. But none of that today. I'll become a side sleeper, now. Thank you, Bob and Brad.
Thank you guys I feel wonderful and I am falling asleep doing all the steps that you said to do. I’m back is hurting due to Covid.
Thank you, guys + Lis ! Lis with her beautiful smile...🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭
You’ve really helped me with your videos thought I had a herniated disc but it’s a muscle spasm in my lower back
Thank you humble bob and brad! you have been relieving a lot of people's pain! :)
I'm late to the party here, but I'm watching to make sure that my back sleeping with my rather severe back issues is on target. I've been using pillows to elevate my legs because I get a yearly MRI for my migraines, and they put a wedge like this there years ago, and I thought I heard angels sing, it was so immediately comfortable. LOL I then started doing it at home. Untreated childhood scoliosis is bad news in the late 50s after a 10 lb. baby in my late 30s. That's my spinal headline, with a cervical bulging disc and a lumbar herniated disc, and more of those come. I've watched y'all on and off and subbed today. Thank you!
I have been switching from stomach to side sleeping because of back, hip, and jaw pain, and it’s been difficult to adjust but has helped the pain a bit.
LOVE YOU GUYS! You two HACE really been a BLESSING to me THANKS SO SO MUCH!🐦🦋
Pumping out such a wide variety of practical videos
A pillow wedge under the head, as you said, works well for those of us with asthma & other breathing issues, and also helps those of us with GERD & heartburn in general.
Thanks for your videos - I'm learning a lot & will check more out to help my aches & pains. I work as a care aide and, at 51, I want to be able to keep at my job for at least another 9 years or so, which I will if I follow your tips & those of my doctor. 🤗🙂
Than you Liz for all the up and down demo's
Great ideas. I have sciatic pain and all these recommendations will work. Believe me I've found out the hard way! Problem is I fall asleep on my side but roll over during the night sometimes flat on my back....not good!!
The times where I slept on my stomach and had no back pain now 14 and I can't even get up in the morning because of the pain this has helped a lot though thx
Thank you so much! I'm recovering from a fractured pelvis and its caused horrendous back pain. Why didn't my PT tell me about this? I just ordered a wedge leg pillow on Amazon. Looking forward to sleeping comfortably in 2 days. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Great episode. I had know idea sleeping was so complicated.💤😊
Everyone can sleep but not everyone can sleep without pain!
The first thing with sleeping can be complicated as you have to be able to get to sleep. I am watching this in February 2021. I don't think I have slept since 2019. If you get my drift. 2020 was a useless year. Who slept? Yes you can sleep in the chair if you get five seconds that you weren't under high stress for what was going on in the world...
@@gailremp8389 Turn off the TV for heaven's sake. I sleep like a baby every night - but I pay zero attention to the media! If it's not a problem I can in any way solve, I don't worry myself with it.
You really deserve the subscription 😄 the nicest video that I could hear about this problem 😁
I keep following yr videos as they really are so practical
I gotta say it- I love love LOVE the jingle ! Makes me crack up every time.
Oh, and I am learning about how to fix symptoms from a disc problem in the neck. Thanks for informative content.
Great video, educational and entertaining. Thanks
Omg! First like & comment!! Love your channel!!
WOOHOO! :)
-discussing sleeping on the stomach and prior to headaches Bom mentions sleeping on back, meant stomach. We were measured for pillows and it was wonderful.
So glad I found your channel 😊💕
Enjoy your work..cheers mates from Thailand.
Oh boy you two are legends
Hi Bob & Brad, I'm enjoying your videos, I was just diagnosed with DDD the other day. I enjoy working out in the yard splitting fire wood with my splitter. What precautions and what can I do or should do about doing this ? By the way I am 60 years old. Thank you for your help, that you can provide.
I use a pillow under my elbow when sleeping on the side. Adds stability to the torso (no twisting) and my chest is not squeezed as much.
These guys are super fantastic !
you two are so cute together! wishing you a happy future!
I'm in pain, and I love you guys
Boy, I need more pillows! Love your helpful videos!
Thanks for this. I've got nerve pain in my neck and pain in my shoulders and back. I dread going to bed because I know when I wake up I'm going to be so sore and in pain. I'm in the process of getting a mattress topper. My sleep number is unhelpful. But I know I need another pillow. But the sheet and pillow case trick I am definitely going to try it. I have like 10 pillows and have been on a quest to find the perfect pillow. I'm 35 and have yet to find the miracle pillow or bed. Lol. I enjoy your videos.
My Pillow.
I’ve had every pillow type going probably. Water, memory foam, Dunlopillow, orthopaedic etc, etc, etc. The only one that seems to help is a soft feather pillow. But it has to be ethically sourced.
You all are awesome! I sleep on my side too.
Thank you :)
Ok, so I suffer from sciatica off and on and prefer sleeping on my side or stomach but now I have a sore shoulder with numbness down into my wrist and fingers. Just watched your video on never sleep on your side or stomach. So now what do I do. Y'all are the best 2 physical therapist on the internet, in my opinion Bob.
Great info!! Ty!!👍
You are welcome :)
Thank you guys!
So true at times I wake up and I feel like I was folded in an envelope all night, so crushed as you demonstrated
Thanks good info I'm doing this kind of position also while sleeping
Great video again ! Thanks B &B 😁
Love these two, relaxed and quite informative…..shold sawders
Great Channel, thank you for sharing!!
Fun and informative
Bob and Brad thank you.
Thanks guys! Very insightful!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have a weighted blanket. It’s fab.
This was posted a such a perfect time for me. Strained my neck and now about to go to sleep. Thanks for the video!
Hope this helps :)
Hey guys. Very informative. Bob, you look just like my friend Dave!
oh my god I love these guys.
I will try that better than I usually do.
Before raining, typically I get stubborn or weird sciatica which is a little different from one that is from fatigue or some certain activities.
11:56 - At this moment they made me joyous.
My step-dad was a chiropractor who had a manipulation table on which you could lie face down with your head in a middle-of-range position,I.e., head facing straight down. A cushion on each side of the face supported the head. Pretty relaxing to lie down on, if someone wasn’t cracking on your spine. I know I’d drool sleeping like that
Thank you omg i feel better
In our O_pinion of course.. love you guys!!
Thank you so much
Hi guys, thanks for your videos. I have back pain , doing physical therapy, chiropractor , the whole nine yards!! I tried sleeping with my neck like you show here but I will get sinus headaches so I have to prop my head to avoid the headaches. Any suggestions ?? Thanks
Hey guys, this is Sharon from Germany. I am a physical therapist, too, and I just wanted to let you know that the quote in your intro is from a guy called
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Ich wollte euch das nur kurz schreiben, immerhin sieht sich das jemand aus Goethes Geburtsland an.
Keep up the good work ♥
Thank you for your feedback.
They are great 👍
Nice video
About the time I arrange all of the cushions and stuff, I feel the need to roll over.
I'm a left side sleeper but I know what you're talking about. 99.9% of my time is left side. By the time I got all the pillows and everything organized I'd probably fall out of the bed ha ha

I have the leg wedge. The slanted part is too long for me. I'm only 5' tall. So I turn it around and use it with the slant pointing away from me, toward the foot of the bed. Works well that way.
Oh my! I get it now. Sleeping on my stomach with my arms under the pillow and my head turned to the left gives me a sore neck and shoulders. But that's how I sleep! It's not a conscious choice.
thank you very much...
We love Liz
She is great!
What are the best all around general pillows you guys recommend? Thank you!
Aloha, love ypur show! Question- I always get my back messed up whenever I get a cold or flu and get in odd positions to breathe better while sleeping. I also have sleep apnea that the cpap mask doesn't help. (No masks fit right, and I have sensory integration issues, with possible autism. Dercum's Disease, Asthma, type 3c Diabetes, & I use a wheelchair.) I injured my sciatic joint plus lower back in a car accident. I have a pain pump between L1 & L2. ( It's going out this year. Don't know what to do. ) I also get chronic Lymphedema with mixed Dercum's Disease. Any ideas? Have you ever managed a compression pump at night or cold therapy? I have about 8 pillows. I was looking at the giant donut shaped pregnancy pillows. Any of these things ever help? What might help?
I'm also directing my adult daughter to your vlog. She is crazy into body building. She has no coach. She had been very frail while I was away in intensive care, & then the hospital back in 2013. She was 87 pounds and 5'5". She is now 5'7" and about 131 pounds. She was afraid of getting big like me and we had little support. She has an Asian build, and hypermobility. Please direct us where to find out more. Mahalo from Hilo. Take care, Kai
Hello thank you for the video! I have upper body back pain ? What position
is good to sleep?
Used this technique. Woke up naked. 10/10 highly recommended
wow this was really helpful
hi guys thank you
I sleep flat on my back with a little knee support to take the pull out of my lower back
You two guys are the best in my opinion too!
I love you guys ❤️❤️
Thank you :)
Excellent video, one of the best. Hoping for more in mattresses. Especially ones that aren't 30k lol
You'll love sleeping 😴.if you sleep with me 🤗❤️
Any tips for sleeping with hip bursites?
Great
I made my own wedge out of a old foam mattress to keep my feet elevated and out of anterior pelvic tilt, but sleeping flat on my back puts pressure on my neck so I can't sleep. I have taken the legs off at the bottom of my bed in hopes this will angle me more down and put less pressure on my neck, I'm hoping this is a good alternative to buying an expensive wedge for the back
Hi Bob and Brad. I have been struggling with pain in my neck with spasms in my neck. The pain often feels like shooting tingling and numbness and it starts at the base of my skull. It sometimes even feels like a squeezing sensation at the base of my skull. Sometimes I have arm pain with the neck pain. Could this be a pinched nerve?
Hello if i can do one exerciese without feeling with pain that i used to do such left my legs when i kick to heigh level have i to do it to keep my flexability or i have to stop i have henriated disc with no critical symptoms
Great ideas, but how do you keep all of these pillows in place?
Love u both!
Gald, I'm been sleeping correct way my whole life,
I find that with my weighted blanket - which I really like - I seem to sleep more deeply but also much longer in one position. Hoping to hear if sleeping a long time in one position is good or bad or indifferent.
If the goal is to keep a neutral spine while sleeping, with ears in line with the shoulders, would the ideal sleeping position include "not" using a head pillow at all (assuming you are also a back sleeper)? Really enjoy your videos. Thanks!
They said, slight curve, straight, slight curve. Head on a flat, non-elevated position causes strain to the neck.
Morning from beautiful sunny Cape Town. SA. Thank you for the tips. Do these positions apply for right hip pain too?
Hi, Liz!
