Getting enough sleep is essential to help a person to maintain their optimal health and well-being. When it comes to health, sleep is as vital as regular exercise and eating a balanced diet. We spend about a third of every day in bed. Whether that time is spent blissfully slumbering, tossing, and turning, it depends a lot on our mattress.
Sleeping on the wrong mattress can cause or worsen lower back pain. Lack of support from a mattress reinforces poor sleeping posture, strains muscles, and does not help keep the spine in alignment, all of which contribute to lower back pain.
Choosing the right mattress can be difficult these days with the vast variety of mattresses on the market. Finding the right mattress isn't about searching for the highest-tech brand or spending the most money. A much more expensive mattress doesn't necessarily mean it's better. Instead of focusing on price and brand name, think about what you want in a mattress.
Hare some practical guidelines on how to choose the right mattress for both back support and sleep comfort:
Know when it’s time to get a new mattress
If you've been having trouble sleeping, the problem might not be your mattress type, but age itself. It's really important for people to realize that mattresses have a certain lifespan. Keeping your mattress too long, and the foam and other materials inside it will start to break down, compromising its ability to support your body, keeping your mattress for 10 years more or less. After that, it's time to go mattress shopping again.
Use your personal preference
Any mattress that helps someone sleep without pain and stiffness is the best mattress for that individual. There is no single mattress style or type that works for all people. If you're on too soft of a mattress, you'll start to sink down to the bottom, but on too hard of a mattress you have too much pressure on the sacrum, on the shoulders, and on the back of the head. A firm mattress with a softer pillow top will give your spine that "just-right" balance of support and cushioning.
Try to understand the physical components of the mattress
Choosing the number of coils, type of padding, and mattress depth should be determined by individual preferences. The coils or inner springs of a mattress provide support. Different mattresses vary in their number and arrangement of coils. Padding on top of the mattress comes in many different thicknesses. Mattress depths typically range anywhere from 7 to 18 inches deep.
