massage table
has anyone tried sleeping on a massage table with their head in the cradle headrest in order to advance the tongue using gravity? i was on a massage table today and i put my head in the cradle headrest, and i realized how my tongue naturally advances towards the floor. i can't sleep on my stomach in bed because of a back and neck injury -- i can't turn my head left or right. i wonder if anyone has tried sleeping on a massage table? thanks, eric.

I does sound a little uncomfortable?

Wouldn't have thought of trying to sleep on a massage table. They are very comfortable for a massage, but I like to move around in bed at night and never sleep on my stomach. You could probably modify a pillow to achieve the same essential position and accomodate a mask.

I would not have thought to sleep on one -- although the idea doesn't sound appealing to me.

Love having a massage but don't think I could sleep like that at night. Wish it would work, though. I HATE, HATE my chin strap. Is making my neck quite painful. So one thing is helped but it harms another!!!

That is a brilliant idea, Eric! I NEVER would have thought of it! And I think that Mary is on to something. Maybe you could modify a memory foam pillow or use one of those C shaped neck pillows?
