Incline Therapy

MedCline wedge gently elevates your upper body to the doctor-recommended incline of 15-20° to keep stomach acid at bay and away from the delicate lining of your esophagus.

Patented Arm Pocket

Unique MedCline arm-pocket allows you to sleep comfortably and reduce pressure on your shoulder, promoting pain-free sleep.

Side-Sleeping Comfort

MedCline systems encourage a healthy left or right side-sleeping position, reducing discomfort and creating full body support and alignment with the therapeutic body pillow.

Can MedCline help my snoring/sleep apnea?

Side sleeping is often recommended to help decrease snoring and assist with positional sleep apnea. The patented arm pocket of the MedCline Relief System allows you to sleep comfortably on your side by removing pressure from your downside arm and shoulder and the Therapeutic Body Pillow provides side-sleeping support so that you are unable to roll to your back.

We have heard from several customers who successfully use MedCline in conjunction with CPAP therapy. Since the stuffing of the Body Pillow is adjustable, you can create a "nest" for your mask by moving the stuffing around. Instead of putting tennis balls on your pajama shirt, try MedCline! 

Can MedCline help my shoulder injury?

Our MedCline Shoulder Relief System was designed specifically for those with shoulder pain at night. While similar to the MedCline Reflux Relief System, including the patented arm pocket, the Shoulder Relief System has a lower overall degree of elevation as compared to the Reflux Relief System. The Shoulder Relief System props you up just high enough to take the pressure off your downside arm and shoulder without the angle needed for reflux relief. If you have GERD and shoulder pain, we highly recommend ourReflux Relief System as it should relieve both issues for you. If you have any questions about what solution will be best for you, feel free to give us a call at 800-610-1607.

When will I start feeling relief?

While some customers find comfort and relief with MedCline on night one, most customer need time to adjust to the new sleeping position. If you have any questions while you adjust to MedCline, please give our team of Sleep Specialists a call at 800-610-1607. We are here to help!
