Mattress Forum

I sleep on my side, and my chiropractor is trying to convince me to sleep in a more upright position.  (Technicallly, I suppose I had been sleeping more on my stomach.)  So I'm really trying to sleep lying on my side, but that is hard on my shoulder.  So the chiropractor says that I should be rolled slightly to the back of my shoulder (if that makes any sense), but that's getting closer and closer to just sleeping on my back! 

So here's my question:  do y'all think that a super-soft topper of some kind could reduce pressure on my shoulder enough to lie directly on it?    Or is that a bad idea?  Maybe I need to keep practicing my sleep position.  Sheesh--who'd guess I'd have to practice *sleeping*!!

Thanks for any advice!
