According to my doctor, sleeping without a pillow is the _nature's way_ of sleeping. Sleeping without a pillow may cause the body to rotate this way or that in a rather awkward manner. But that is how our subconscious mind directs the body to 'unlock' the various 'compressed' parts in the body, and in the case of the t patient, possibly a compressed nerve in the spine.
I had been suffering from high-pitched sound until a compressed nerve in my spine was released.

so if you don't sleep with a pillow - I use a chiropractic-type pillow and it helps my bad neck enormously - do you use a rolled-up towel or something else under your the curve of your neck? Or just flat on the bed?

I use NOTHING. That is why I sometimes crawl with my face down on the bed with my neck resting on one side of my face for a while and then on another side of my face. As I said, the body _subconsciously_ rotates the body in such manner in order that certain 'compressed' parts in the body could be released. If you use the pillow, you have only one posture or the posture of lying with face either up or sideway. You want your body to do the crawling movement in various angles so that your spine could be released.

A lot of people got their t through a compressed nerve in the spine. But the ENT doctors have no clue about that. And they laugh at chiropractor, accupuncturists, while in reality they are afraid that their turf being invaded.

thank you, very interesting. i'll try this tonight
I don't quite understand the crawl, though. is the crawling a type of exercise you do when you're awake? or is it what your body does automatically when you sleep wihtout a pillow?
also, the crawl you describe below seems to be with your face down on the boe. isn't it hard on the back to sleep with face down?

well, i tried no pillow last night. it was a bit odd, but not painful for my neck. in the morning, at first I thought my T was the same as usual (high-pitched ringing/hiss mostly in right ear). but when I got up and around, it was worse than usual although not awful. i did have some unusual releases in my neck when I moved my neck around in the a.m. - could sense or hear them popping in my right ear!
interesting experiment. i'll try it again. but am still curious about the actual crawl you describe and the general aspect of sleeping on one's stomach.

An authentic chiropractic pillow is NO pillow. Once you take the pillow away, you immediately allow your body to flip over at will. Thus you find yourself sometimes sleeping on back and sometimes on your breast. But then again who says sleeping must be on one's back? Look at how the baby sleep; they sometimes sleep on their backs and sometimes on their tommies.
Throughout the entire evening, your body will be doing its own chiropractic by flipping over with all sorts of postures which you think are awkward but the body simply does what it wants to do, and it does so in order to unlock some positions which you might have unconsciously locked up due to careless motions such as seating in front of a pc with an incorrect head position over a prolonged period.
By taking away your pillow and allowing your body to flip-frog, you stand a good chance of relaxing a compressed nerve in your spine. A compressed nerve in the spine is one of the causes of tinnitus. Actually quite a few people get their tinnitus through a compressed nerve in the spine. But they are not aware of this. By sleeping without a pillow, your body makes an effort to un-compress this nerve that has been compressed without your realizing it. When you visit an inexperienced ENT or neurologist for your tinnitus, their focuses are on your cochlea and your nerve, and the spine is a bit too far away from their concern. Sleeping without a pillow might just save you a world of grief.

Okay, so i know absolutely nothing about this, but i started thinking about it and it makes sense to sleep without a pillow. the only thing i was worried about was that i might like die in my sleep, but i guess not, because someone up there tried it and they didn't die. I'm going to try it tonight, and I'll get back tomorrow with you about it. :] Sweet dreams.
