It’s the one question women always ask me, and it’s not what you might think. Everyone from viewers to friends, even my own staff here at the show, they all want to know: don’t you know a nice doctor to set me up with? Well, folks, it’s Valentine’s Day, and my gift to you is the most eligible doctors in America.
Dr. Dr. Hooman Melamed, spine surgeon. I believe sleep is the key to any relationship. I can show you how to wake up on the right side of the bed.
Please welcome Dr. Hooman Melamed. So, what is with all these pillows? You need this many to get to sleep?
Well, I think you spend about a third or a quarter of your life sleeping. So, I think it’s really important to get a good night’s sleep. And yes, the more pillows, the better sleeping, because it helps you realign your spine, protect your spine, get a good night’s sleep, relax the joint, so you wake up all fresh.
All right. I’ve got a question for all these wonderful women in the audience. Who wants to replace one of these pillows? Put your hands up. You’re closest. Come sit down. Come on over here. How are you? What, what’s your first name?
Alana.
Dr. Melamed.
Hi.
So, can you demonstrate on Alana how we do this?
So, yes. So, first, obviously, you got to protect the neck and the head when you’re sleeping. So, so I’m going to put this here. So, that’s where the your head and the neck goes. And then you, the shoulders are very critical. They’re going to protect also with the neck, and then around the hips and on your knees. So, we’re going to have you lie down here. So, put your head over here.
All right. Let’s see how this goes for you.
Put this around here, like making a little pillow casket here.
All right. Go ahead. Get comfortable. Don’t mind that you’re on the stage set. It’s okay. Here we are.
I’m going to put under your knees.
Oh my goodness. Like a princess here. The princess in the… So, how is that?
This is much nicer than how I usually…
Actually, try to go under on, bring the shoulders a little bit up here.
Oh, he’s a perfectionist surgeon. Okay, that’s a good thing in surgery, by the way.
Yeah. As a spine surgeon, it’s really important to protect your spine. So, the topics I discussed with them is sleeping, really, I mean, to protect your spine and your neck and obviously the rest of the joints. So, when you, when you sleep, you know, you, you wake up, you’re well, fresh, and the whole thing is aligned.
I like that. Alana, he’s rested. You will tire.
Yeah.
