How long does it take you to find your perfect sleeping position when you tuck in at night? While there isn’t a universal recommended sleeping position as everyone’s needs are different, there are certain positions that we give you more relief if you are experiencing pain or have a medical condition.
According to a national survey conducted by Tempur-Pedic of more than 2,000 people, 57% people start their night on their side, 17% on their back and 11% begin on their stomach. Various sleep studies have also found that adults change their sleeping position at night between 3 and 36 times at night, with the average being 12 times. Also, as we age, we change position during the night less often.
