I would suggest, that you sleep on floor without pillows for somedays.

if you have shoulder pain that suggests you are going too far into the matress and crunching up your blades to me ,i dont think the positiion as such will clear anything up until you buy a new matress tbh although try sleeping on your front/side so that your shoulders arent taking the force may help

I used to get that - I try to fall asleep flat on my back. Make sure your pillows aren't supporting your neck and head too high because that can also put a strain on your back and shoulders. Try and use a squishy pillow if you can :)

You can fall asleep in a certain way but you will naturally form positions while you sleep. A pillow under the knee while semi-foetal is very comfortable, but I often wake with my hand behind my head and a 'frozen' shoulder at times! (Ouch).. PS check that your mattress is the right one for you as the older they get the less support they give.

I am very prone to aches and pains but have discovered that sleeping in the recovery position is good. Sleeping on your side will make shoulders and hips hurt eventually.
