What is NEST?
The NEST is a single continuous memory foam bolster with a flexible internal spine. You bend it into the shape you need to support your operative arm, and it holds that position throughout the night instead of shifting out of place.
Removable foam blocks support the forearm and elbow, keeping the shoulder out of extension. A pocket at each end keeps your phone or medication within reach and doubles as a handle for adjusting it.
It works with any post-operative sling, sets up on your own bed or on the couch, and provides support without sacrificing comfort.
WHY DOES SLEEPING HURT AFTER SHOULDER SURGERY?
The problem is positioning. When you're upright, gravity helps keep the ball of your shoulder centered in its socket. When you lie flat, you lose that help, and the ball drifts upward, pinching the tissue that was injured or just repaired. At the same time, your elbow tends to fall back behind your body, which puts more pressure on the front of the shoulder.
That's why many patients feel fine during the day, then wake a few hours into the night in significant pain. Surgeons often recommend sleeping in a recliner or on a wedge pillow, but neither is ideal. Recliners are expensive and impractical for a few weeks of recovery. Wedges don't support the arm and let you slide down the bed, which makes the problem worse.
NEST solves the positioning problem. It keeps you reclined in your own bed while holding your arm in a safe, supported position, so your shoulder stays comfortable and you can sleep through the night.
