Sealy Memory Foam Mattress Causing Back Pain.

Erika writes:

Hi Pete, 
I've been reading your blog. My husband and I need a new mattress. 
Our current mattress is a Sealy memory foam that has lasted at best 3 years and now sags terribly. 
We are done with memory foam. However, we went and tested a Simmons Legend and it felt great, but I'm worried about the memory foam. 
My husband is 6'0 and 170 lbs, and I'm 5'6" and 145 lbs. 
He has back and neck pain from sitting at a desk job all day, and I have an SI joint injury that causes hip and back pain. 
We are both back and side sleepers. I often end up having to sleep sitting up to alleviate back pain. 
Do we need an adjustable base along with a new mattress? 
Thank you for your help, Erika

 
Hi Erika,
Not many people know that a desk job can cause back pain.
The pain comes from discs wearing...according to my orthopedic surgeon.
I have the same problem, and for the same reason.

The individually pocketed coils of the Simmons Beautyrest provide the push back support that your all foam mattress does not provide.
The contouring support of the individually pocketed coil unit maintains the natural alignment of the spine...which relieves a lot of that kind of back pain.

However, if you research Simmons Beautyrest for their durability, the reviews are horrible. 
Those coils are not made of tempered steel, and the upholstery is all memory foam, which you already know doesn’t last very long.

To add insult to injury, The Legend model, being an exclusive, it is way overpriced because exclusives can’t be shopped.

So, let me recommend something that works, works well, and last a very long time.
The mattress we use, at home, uses the same pre-compressed individually pocketed coil unit as in the Simmons Beautyrest.
The difference is, the steel from which the coils are made is double tempered.
The upholstery is natural Talalay Latex.
There is memory foam in any of these mattresses.
The brand is Natura of Canada, their Greenspring line.
It will relieve your husband’s back pain and last you a good decade or two.
The most comfortable of the 5 models in that line is The Plush EuroTop.
Here is a link to those mattresses.

Greenspring Liberty Plush Euro Top. Experience deeper, more restorative sleep with the Liberty Plush Euro Mattress. Lush helpings of natural ingredients come together with a foam encased coil unit to gratify your hunger for luxury, affordability and eco-integrity.

The quality is infinitely better than anything Simmons makes.

An adjustable bed base provides very little therapeutic value.
It's really nothing more than an expensive toy...good if you hang out in your bedroom...but not for sleeping or relieving back pain.


ALSO IMPORTANT:
I suggest using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will greatly extend the life and loft of the upholstery materials inside. Ours sleep cool and make NO Noise.
