How to Choose a Mattress for Back/Neck Pain and All Sleepers?



Waking up with a stiff neck or aching back can derail your entire day. If you're one of the millions struggling with chronic pain, a supportive mattress is more than a luxury – it's a necessity. But with countless options available, how do you choose the right one for back and neck pain, especially when you have diverse sleeping habits? We'll cover the key things to think about when buying a good mattress and introduce you to the Best mattress brand in Australia - Newentor,  focused on better sleep and healthy life.

Why You Need to Replace a New Mattress?

Generally, a mattress's useful life is 3 to 5 years. So, if you're having back or neck pain, it could be telling you it's time to get a new mattress that's right for you. Back and neck pain often stem from poor spinal alignment during sleep. A mattress that's too soft allows your spine to sag, while one that's too firm can create pressure points. The ideal mattress provides a balance of support and cushioning, maintaining the natural curvature of your spine.  

How to Choose a Mattress that Most Suitable for You?

Material and Construction:

  • Memory Foam: Conforms to your body, offering excellent pressure relief.  
  • Innerspring: Offers traditional support and bounce.    
  • Hybrid: Combines the support of innerspring coils with the comfort of foam.

Sleep Position:

  • Side Sleepers: Need a softer mattress to cushion shoulders and hips.
  • Back Sleepers: Require medium-firm support to maintain spinal alignment.   
  • Stomach Sleepers: Benefit from a firmer mattress to prevent excessive arching of the back.   
  • Combination Sleepers: A medium-firm hybrid mattress can provide adaptable support.   

Support and Firmness:

Firmness is subjective, but generally, medium-firm offers the best support for back pain. Consider hybrid mattresses with individually wrapped coils for targeted support. Memory foam can also provide excellent contouring.

Pressure Relief:

Pressure points can exacerbate pain, and memory foam mattresses excel at distributing weight and relieving pressure. Please look for mattresses with zoned support, which provides varying levels of firmness to different areas of your body.
