When you decide it’s the best time to buy a mattress, come test out our best memory foam mattress, and experience these benefits!
Relief from Pressure Point Pain
Early latex mattresses were designed for hospital use, as they offer plenty of support for patients without the worry of excessive pressure on any particular point on the body. This helped to reduce the number and seriousness of bed sores. In a similar way, for home use, access to the best memory foam mattress means less movement at night, less pain in the morning, and a better overall night’s sleep.
Better Spinal Alignment and Back Support
Because the best memory foam mattress shapes to your body, providing better overall support and spreading your body weight over the bed’s surface while it contours to your body, you get far better back support and spinal alignment than with a traditional coil mattress. Spring-style mattresses tend to apply pressure to hips, shoulders, and heels, and this can result in serious back pain. By helping to keep your body in a more natural position on a memory foam mattress, you wake up feeling refreshed and no longer in pain.
Any Position Will Do
No matter what position you like to sleep in, on your side, on your back, on your stomach, or anywhere in between, the best memory foam mattress will simply reshape itself as it contours to your body to continue providing you with the ultimate in support and comfort.
Say No to Dust Mites
The average innerspring mattress can have anywhere from 100K to 10 million dust mites hiding in and on it. Yep, that’s who you might be sleeping with every night. Memory foam offers these allergy-causing critters virtually nowhere to hide. When you add a hypoallergenic mattress cover and routine vacuuming, you can finally get the upper hand by eliminating the bulk of these nippy little buggers.
The Same to Allergies
Not only are the best memory foam mattresses great at eliminating bugs from your nightly sleep, the dense nature of the foam helps to cut down on the mold, mildew, and pet dander that tends to work its way into a standard mattress. Also, many of today’s foam mattresses are made from materials that are known to be low in VOCs, which means they don’t emit any noxious fumes that could cause problems for those with allergies or are sensitive to chemical smells.
The best time to buy a mattress is after your standard mattress is between 5 and 7 years old. This is typically the average lifespan of a standard innerspring mattress; the best memory foam mattress is likely to last up to ten years or more without any signs of sagging such as you might expect to see in an innerspring mattress.
