Abstract:
A sleep support system configured to support and position in flexion the knee region of one leg of a substantially supine individual comprising:a length and a width; a first leg support; a first rest plane disposed in the first leg support, the first rest plane adapted to provide support for the leg during sleep; a second leg support operatively associated with the first leg support; and a second rest plane disposed on the second leg support, the second rest plane adapted to provide support for the leg during sleep, the first rest plane and the second rest plane being oriented from about 75Â° to about 105Â° of each other; such that the first leg support and the second leg support define a general L-shape for establishing a proper S-curve shape of the human spine and said length is disposed substantially perpendicular to the length of said leg when the system is in use.
