- If you are having hip pain while you sleep,
the mattress you sleep on can make an incredible difference.
We do have, and actually our giveaway is a mattress
that will help hip pain.
- Sleep ovation.
- Sleep ovation is right. - 700 tiny matches.
- And we counted every single one.
- Air channels, - Air channels
to keep you cool.
Yep.
And look at these nice coil springs
under each tiny mattress.
- Really comfortable. - Yep. Very nice.
So anyways, let's get on to the.
- Let's go to work.
- Okay.
All right.
If you got hip pain, this is gonna,
if this purple represents the painful side,
number one,
avoid sleeping on the hip. - Right.
- And then some people, you know, you're gonna roll over.
You cannot sleep
on the other side. - Absolutely.
- But if you can sleep like this, it's preferred.
And then make sure you have another pillow.
Put it between your knees and that'll make a big difference.
It's gonna take pressure off that hip.
It's much more comfortable.
You'll have a better night.
- [Bob] It feels better.
- Yep. Yep.
And I think most people will.
- [Brad] But I agree.
You gotta try it out.
Now if you happen to have the, say the sore hip
is here on the bottom cause that's the way you sleep.
- It's a habit.
And you know that's, that's the only way you can sleep.
The way to take pressure off that hip.
We got a couple options, is you take a pillow.
Now this is gonna depend on you as a person in
your body shape experiment.
You can put it here so that the pillow is above
the belt line of the hip and lie there.
And that takes pressure off of that hip.
- [Bob] Yep. And now the pressure along the spine.
- Yep.
- [Bob] The trunk.
- You may need to, we've had, actually, Mike
one of our people we work with
he had hip pain and he actually doubled it up like this.
Now I know if I did this myself, it's too thick.
That makes my back arch.
- Right.
- Oh, but let's try, You can get a throw pillow.
- A throw pillow.
- Yeah. I think that one is gonna, Yeah, that is better.
So you need to experiment with it.
Get the pressure off the hip.
Get yourself comfortable so you get a good night's sleep
and the hip feels good in the morning.
- Well, it's not bad.
- All right.
Now if you happen to have retroverted hips,
and I can demonstrate how you know that cause I have 'em.
If you stand up like this, look at my feet.
- [Bob] Your feet to turn out.
- [Brad] Yep. I'm very comfortable like this.
If I go like this,
- [Bob] That hurts.
- [Brad] It's not comfortable.
- [Bob] Yeah.
[Brad] This is normal for me.
So if that's normal for you and you walk kind of that way
then when you sleep, you're more
than likely going to wanna put a pillow between
- Legs of the hip is up.
- Yep. If the painful side is up here
put that there and that's gonna be more comfortable for you,
Or
- If,
it's down.
- If you're sleeping on the painful side
you can try putting the pillow.
- See how that turns the hip out?
- Yep.
That's going to and do that.
So this is, again, you try and see what you're more
comfortable for you.
Sleep with whoever, whichever
- [Brad] Experiment
- experiment,
you're gonna find one way that works
for you and you're gonna be more happy.
I'm happy!
- Mad scientist.
- Who?
- Mad scientist.
- Mad scientist, yeah, I am a mad scientist.
My wife says I'm mad at something.
(laughing)
- Always.
- Lastly but not least, is getting out
of bed in the morning.
You've slept all night,
you found the most comfortable position with the pillows,
as we mentioned,
and that is to do a little warmup and stretching.
Very simple.
Bring your feet up towards your butt like this.
I call that, what do I call?
- Hook line.
- Hook line. There we go.
And I do the windshield wipers,
both knees stay together gently.
And you just go right to left.
And this also loosens up that lower back.
Keep your shoulders flat
to the mattress or we're not doing a rolling body
thing. Just
- People really love this.
- Yeah.
It's one of those things, you do it gently
and as you might not start out stiff
but after a few repetitions you'll find you loosen
up and everything gets better and up you go.
- Voila
- Oh, start the day off right. We're hip to hip pain.
That's good.
- Remember to sign up for our giveaway.
- That's right.
The mattress is the giveaway and yeah
we do one, one a month, right?
- Yeah. It's amazing.
- Two this month.
- Two month, two in November.
- Yep.
- Say no more, Bob.
