Goodman Ope of the few facts known about sleep is that everyone changes position many times during the night, but those who have the habit of sleeping on their stomach should try to overcome it. When sleep- ing on y o u r back or on one side no great s t r u c t u r- al change takes place in the spine; however, when sleeping on your stom ach you enust turn your face to the side in order to breathe. Through habit the face is usually turned in the same di- rection every night. This position twists the vertebrae and if the habit is continued they may have a tendency to stay in this posi tion and out of alignment with those vertebrae below. X-rays have shown this to be true in rnflny cases. Stiff or painful neck, soreness in shoulders, peculiar sensations in the arms, and some times organic and functional dis turbances may result from such a misalignment. Chiropractic adjustments will correct the jiosition of the verte bra and by watching sleeping hab its the trouble is not likely to re occur. Cottage Grove Clinic (Chiropractic) 145 Pae.
