Over 300 million people worldwide wake up with stiff back or back pain every day. Millions of others cannot sleep well every night, leading to reduced concentration while driving and lowered productivity at work. Back pain and insomnia are the single leading cause of disability, affecting individuals from all professions. Back pain has accounted for 264 million lost workdays per annum in the Americas alone—accounting for two days per worker.
Back pain is also a contributor to the lack of sleep. Nearly 59% of respondents of a survey said that back pain caused them to have problems falling asleep, wake up early or use medication to help them get to sleep.
What causes back pain?
The main reason for back pain is the modern lifestyle. As our lives become increasingly sedentary, we end up sitting a lot, which puts a lot of pressure on our spine and lower back—leading to back pain. Deconditioning of back muscles is caused by bad posture and jobs that require long hours of sitting. This deconditioning and strain leads to fatigue on spinal discs, giving rise to back pain.
Another often overlooked reason for back pain is our bed. As we spend up to a third of our lives in bed, we often ignore the fact that the root cause of our chronic back pain could be our bed.
What’s in a bed? The perfect recipe for a good night’s rest
You’d be surprised to know that your bedroom is the most significant contributing factor for good sleep. A comfortable room and bed with a good mattress can help you sleep better and wake up refreshed. Every item on your bed contributes to good sleep. Overlooking any one of these items can cause you to toss, turn and not be able to sleep enough every night. Here’s what you need to check for:
- Pillows
Pillows keep your upper body in alignment while sleeping and counterbalance pressure points in the body. A good pillow should adjust to your body and alleviate pressure points. Additionally, your pillow must not exude heat and give you a cooling sensation while sleeping.
- Bed linen
Your bedsheet and your pillow cover act as a jacket while you sleep. They provide warmth, insulation and comfort and ensure that you do not toss and turn too much at night.
- Mattress
This is the most crucial component of your bed. Your mattress will support your entire body and relieve any pressure points that may cause discomfort, back pain or unwanted pressure on one area of the body. A good mattress will offer the perfect balance of comfort, support and cooling while maintaining a natural spinal alignment and body posture. Your mattress will ensure that you sleep undisturbed through the night and wake up refreshed and without back pain.
