    I also suffer with a slip disc. My doc advised me to sleep on my sides and not back. A simple exercise I had was to lie on my back, bend knee keeping the leg on the other thigh and move up down and doing the same for the opposite leg with upto 15-20 counts. Do it a couple of times I a day. It worked for me but nothing wrong to try and see if it works for u.

    Sleep on the floor with your legs bent at the knee, supporting your lower legs on a bench.
