Give Relief to Your Back With Memory Foam Mattresses hits the nail on the head with its title (except that you only need one memory foam mattress, not mattresses). Many people find relief from back pain by switching from a traditional mattress to a memory foam mattress.
A good night’s sleep can be tough for those with chronic back pain and even for those who have just overdone it a bit and have temporary back pain. Sometimes a bad mattresses can even be the cause of your back pain, as it was for me quite a few years back.
Memory foam is temperature sensitive and molds to the contours of your body to reduce pressure points and allow you to sleep comfortably with less need to toss and turn than on a traditional mattress. The word “memory” means that the foam “remembers” and goes back to its original shape when you move or roll over. Once you move, the memory foam slowly molds to your new position to cradle you in comfort.
The unnamed writer of the linked article above correctly points out that buying from a reputable retailer is of utmost importance when choosing a memory foam mattress. Look for a retailer with a money-back guarantee of at least 180 days and reviews from a third party like the Better Business Bureau and Shopping.com.
