If you wake up with a sore back every morning, chances are - the culprit is in that uncomfortable mattress that you've been sleeping on for the past decade! Barring any serious medical conditions like fibromyalagia, scoliosis, spinal injuries and chronic pain conditions - the most popular cause of the occasional back pain is your sleep surface.
Now most people have sleep partners, the bed that is causing you to wake up every morning with aches and pains likely has your spouse sleeping like a baby! For this reason going out and simply buying a new mattress isn't as easy a fix as it may seem. The memory foam mattress system has helped many couples resolve this issue. The visco-elastic material moulds and forms to the individual curves and shapes of the bodies. So where your body may call for more support in the lower back, and your partners body needs more support in the hips - you will find a happy compromise with memory foam.
The most popular brand of visco elastic sleep surfaces is Tempurpedic, they are accredited with bringing this material to the general population several decades ago. Because they are the most popular and best brand, they are also the most expensive as well. If you are not ready to make the investment of several thousand dollars, the most viable solution for you is to purchase a memory foam bed topper.
These foam bed toppers are quickly replacing the old fashioned egg crate foam mattress toppers. You can find them in discount stores like Costco for a fraction of the cost of a full bed set. As long as your current mattress is in good shape with no sink holes or sags, you can simply place the memory foam topper on top of your existing sleep surface and enjoy the benefits right away! These are not designed to be as durable and long lasting as full mattress sets, so you may find yourself replacing it every few years, but at the fraction of the cost - it is well worth the money!
Hey – great blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a really nice platform you are using. I’m currently using WordPress for a few of my blogs but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?
