I second the previous post about sleeping with a pillow in between the legs. Another one is to sleep on his back with a couple pillows under his legs. Even though your back is fine, it may be the mattress. A firmer mattress is better for for people experiencing back pain.
Your back may be fine but his may not be. Go to webmd.com and look at the sleep section.
Tell him to try sleeping on his side with a pillow between his knees. This works well for me.
Something else to consider...if he is sleeping with a lot of pillows under his head, perhaps that is part of the problem. That will affect the back. Something else that may help is sleeping with a pillow between his knees.
