Would it be helpful to sleep with an elevated pillow?

Sleeping with your upper body slightly elevated can help alleviate nighttime reflux symptoms.

잘 때 머리와 상체를 15~20도 정도 높게 유지하면 중력에 의해 위산이 역류하는 것을 물리적으로 막을 수 있습니다.

  • 방법: 베개만 높이면 목이 꺾여 불편하므로, 쿠션이나 받침대로 등부터 비스듬히 높이기
  • 도구: 시중에 판매되는 '역류 방지 베개/쿠션' 활용
  • 효과: 야간 속 쓰림, 아침 목 쉼 증상 완화
🛌 수면 환경

왼쪽으로 누워서 자는 것도 구조상 역류 방지에 도움이 됩니다.
