A memory foam mattress, also known as an orthopedic mattress, is designed to provide more support and comfort for people who suffer from back pain, arthritis, and similar conditions.

Having a memory foam mattress can help you avoid irritating your back and help you get a good night’s sleep. In this article we will see 6 benefits of an orthopedic mattress.

column support

A memory foam mattress by its very nature is much more adept at supporting the natural shape of the body than a traditional mattress. The human spine is shaped like a double S. Back problems can be caused by not having a correct sleep profile due to a weak or unsupportive mattress. This is especially likely if the mattress has been used for longer than it should.

Good for orthopedic complaint patients

The nature of memory foam is such that this material will gently mold around the shape of your body providing cushion and support for any sore areas rather than drag and agitation.

Better product life

An orthopedic mattress will often be backed by a substantial warranty period. Ten and twenty year warranties are not uncommon. This is a manufacturer’s guarantee that you are confident in the quality of your product. With a pocket sprung mattress, you’re lucky if the mattress stays in good condition for at least ten years.

Better sleep quality

If you are comfortable and well supported in bed, then you will sleep better than in a bed that cannot provide these things. Some people even describe the effect of sleeping on a memory foam mattress like sleeping on air.

anti-roll effect

Memory foam is excellent for locating support around the immediate source of weight only, that is, it locates support around one person’s body, without creating a depression that extends into the other person, causing them to roll towards you.

Reasonable price

Although the initial cost of a memory foam mattress is higher than a traditional pocket sprung mattress, the mattress pays for itself quickly. You will do this because over the life of an orthopedic mattress, the time to replace a pocket spring mattress will come at least once or twice. That’s not to mention the fact that you’d be buying a higher quality mattress from the start anyway.
