Has anyone tried inclined bed therapy

I've read a few things about and it seems like an easy thing to try. I think it is recommended to raise the head of the bed 6 inches. Was wondering if anyone has tried this and what they thought of it. I think it might help with my husband's snoring so i would do it just for that, but if it could help me too, that would be even better. Thanks for any information.

We raised our bed a few inches about 6 months ago. Hard to say if it is working or not, but have to try everything :-)

My husband and I have talked about this too, but we haven't tried it yet. I'm interested to know if it's worked for anyone else. Thanks for posting the question!

I have tried this and it works GREAT!!! My PT in Rehab. Therapy has tried many diff. things with my Vertigo problem and this was a Huge Success!!

I sleep at a 45* angle (per her instructions), takes a little getting used to at first but it's worth it!!! I had a sleep study done for various Dx.'s and found I snore liks a champ...lol! Not anymore!!
Give it a try with pillows(at least 3) first and see how it does 4 you!!

Best Wishes!!!

i have had horrible headaches for years, raised the head of bed 8 months ago and they have reduced drastically. i tried the inclined pillow but would end up at the bottom of it curled up like a puppy, cute but not comfy, haha it is certainly worth a shot!
