Improving back pain starts with the right mattress. Eating healthy and working out are a waste if you're spending 1/3 of your life sleeping in the wrong position . Here are some tips to choosing the best mattress for back pain relief.
Choosing the best mattress for back pain is not easy. With so many mattress companies out there it can be very confusing.
Medical grade mattresses are the best for upper and lower back pain. They typically cost over $2300 but are designed to minimize pressure points and correct your bodys alignment.
No big brand name company such as Sealy, Serta, Simmons, Sterns & Fosters offer a mattress designed for back support. That's why you'll never see a Serta in a hospital. It takes a high quality mattress to relieve back, shoulder and neck pain.
Coil mattresses just don't cut it anymore. Coils, no matter how many times they're wrapped up and topped in luxury fabric will ever relieve pressure points and correct your alignment. Metal springs pushing back at your body, all with equal pressure, results in hip and shoulder pressure points. Do your hips apply as much pressure as your ankles? Obviously not, so we should not be sleeping on springs. It's sad to say but the only reason spring mattresses are still being sold is because theyre inexpensive to make and require replacement every 5-10 years. To buy a coil systems is just 13$. Makes you wonder where they come up with the $1000+ price tags.
The best mattresses for bad backs are Memory foam and Air mattresses because they'll distribute your weight evenly. Memory foam and Air mattresses minimize pressure points so you wont be tossing and turning. They allow your body to relax in a proper aligned position so your muscles can relax and your body can heal throughout the night.
Companies such as SAT, Essentia, Tempur-Pedic and Select Comfort are all ideal for back pain relief. Their beds offer correct support, pressure relief and efficient blood circulation for your bad back. Ergonomic pillows are available by most of these companies which can also help alleviate upper back, shoulder and neck pain.
Don't forget, its all about pressure relief and spinal alignment. Good Luck!
