Trouble sleeping is frustrating, especially when your back, neck, or shoulders feel uncomfortable.

Here are practical tips for sleep problems. If discomfort persists, talk to a healthcare provider.

Practical Tips for Sleeping Better and Comfortably

Common sleep problems

Do you notice several times a week that you're not sleeping well, and feel the effects during the day? A healthcare provider can tell you whether you're dealing with a sleep problem.

Do you recognize any of these symptoms?

  • Difficulty falling asleep
  • Tossing and turning a lot during the night
  • Physical complaints such as pain in your back, neck, or shoulders

Tips for a good night's sleep

Every person and every sleep problem is different. There is plenty of advice out there, and what works varies from person to person. If you've been sleeping poorly for a while, it can take time to settle into a good sleep routine again. If the problem continues, consider talking to a healthcare provider.

These are our tips:

  • Start with the basics: your pillow, mattress, bedding and sleep environment all affect how you sleep. Adjusting one or more of them can improve your chances of a better night.
  • Look for the cause: Ask yourself when your sleep got worse and what you've noticed since. Maybe your mind races at night, or your body feels uncomfortable. Understanding the cause helps you choose what to change.
  • Limit screen time: You've probably heard the advice to avoid screens before bed. Have you tried blue light glasses, or switching your devices to night mode?
  • Wind down your evening routine: The hours before bed are full of habits, like watching TV, brushing your teeth or exercising. Try adding activities that help you unwind, such as reading, journaling, listening to relaxing music or meditating.
