Posture expert reveals there are only TWO sleep positions you should be using if you want to maintain a healthy back and spine

A posture expert has lifted the lid on the only two sleep positions he recommends for optimal spine support — insisting that you should never lay on your stomach. James Leinhardt, a sleep posture expert from Manchester, England, went viral on TikTok after sharing the only two sleep positions he recommends for optimal spine support The first position he recommended was the 'soldier,' which is lying flat on your back. 'If you're lying on your back, your spine is immediately supported by the mattress, and you've got the most even distribution of body weight,' he explained. 'If you're lying on your back, your spine is immediately supported by the mattress,' he explained The second he touted was 'dreamer,' a semi-fetal side-lying position with a pillow between your knees and ankles for added support Experts agree that sleeping on your back and side are the best positions, but many commenters insisted they can only doze off when they are on their stomachs 'Do you sleep in one of the magic two sleeping positions?'
