Lower back pain can take over your entire life. Not only is it uncomfortable throughout the day, but it can get in the way of normal, healthy activities, like work, excercise, and your social life. If you experience it, you’re not alone. According to the American Physical Therapy Association, 25% of Americans report back pain in the last 3 months at any given time.

Back pain has many possible causes, whether that’s sitting hunched over a desk all day (guilty as charged) or a muscle strain. We recommend speaking to a doctor to rule out underlying issues. However, one of the things that could be causing your pain is the way you sleep at night. If you wake up with a sore lower back, your sleep position may play a part.
