Dealing with back pain and want a mattress that can provide the comfort and support you need? With so many different mattress options out there, it can be really hard to find out what kind of mattress is right for you.
When it comes to back pain, here are the different mattresses that can address your problem.
Medium to Firm Mattresses
If you are dealing with lower back pain, look for Calgary mattresses that provide medium to firm support. This will provide you the support your lower back needs. Without proper support, you may fall into a bad posture while you are sleeping. This can exacerbate your lower back pain.

If you sleep on your sides and have lower back pain, you can go with a mattress that isn’t as firm and is more in the medium area. You can even go into mattresses that are a little plusher than medium. For lower back pain, memory foam can work well because it conforms to your body and will distribute your body’s weight evenly.
For Upper-Back Pain
What if you have mid and upper back pain? You can still stick to medium to firm mattresses. But some people may actually benefit from sticking to mattresses that are in the firmer range. The firm mattress helps stabilize your upper back and maintain proper posture.
Hybrid Mattresses
For the material, you should go with mattresses that are hybrid. Hybrid mattresses consist of memory foam as well as coils. They provide more pressure relief than memory foam mattresses.
They tend to provide more support than memory foam or spring mattresses. This is why it’s perfect for people that have upper back problems. You want to keep your upper back in a stable and comfortable position to decrease the pain.
