How to Sleep When You Have Acid Reflux?

Okay friend let’s be real for a second, trying to get a good night’s sleep when you have acid reflux feels like a joke sometimes. You finally lie down thinking you’ll drift off and then boom that burning in your chest starts creeping up. The worst right.

But before you give up on sleep entirely let’s talk about a few things that can actually help. Because yes you deserve rest and yes there are ways to make it easier.

One of the biggest things that changed the game for me was changing the way I sleep. Acid reflux and lying flat are just not friends. When you lie flat all that acid can easily flow back into your esophagus and cause that burning discomfort. But if you elevate your upper body even just a little it makes a huge difference.

That’s where the DaVinci Orthopedics Pillow comes in. It’s not just a regular pillow, it’s designed to gently elevate your upper body to the perfect angle so gravity can help keep acid where it belongs. It’s super comfy and supportive too so you’re not sacrificing comfort for function

I know a lot of people try to stack up pillows but let me tell you that never really works. It ends up hurting your neck or shifting in the middle of the night. The DaVinci pillow stays in place and supports your back neck and head in all the right ways. Plus it’s amazing if you also deal with neck pain or snoring.

Another tip is to be mindful of what you eat before bed. Try to avoid heavy greasy or spicy meals at least a few hours before lying down. I know that late night pizza craving is real but your sleep will thank you if you save it for lunchtime

Also try sleeping on your left side if you can. It might sound random but sleeping on your left can help reduce reflux symptoms compared to lying on your right. It has to do with how your stomach is positioned in your body, left side just works better

And last but definitely not least make your sleep space super cozy. Keep it dark, cool and quiet. The more relaxed your body is the easier it’ll be to fall and stay asleep….even with reflux

So if you’re tired of waking up feeling like a fire-breathing dragon try making a few of these changes. The right setup and especially the right pillow can make a world of difference. Trust me once you sleep with the DaVinci Orthopedics Pillow you won’t want to go back

Sweet dreams friend! No more burning, no more tossing just restful healing sleep!
