A Mattress for My Teenage Daughter with Chronic Lower Back Pain.

Celia writes: 

Hi TME,

I am trying to find a mattress for my daughter who suffers with chronic lower back pain, resulting from sports. 

Because of the back problems she has learned to sleep in most any position that relieves her pain, although she use to prefer sleeping on her side. 


She weighs only about 125 lbs.

I’d like to keep the cost under $1000.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Celia 


Hi Celia,

The key to relieving her back pain is in keeping her spine in its natural alignment.

A pocketed coil/latex hybrid mattress will do that for her.


It’s important to avoid any mattress that’s upholstered with memory foam, as memory foam allows the body to sink, which will throw off her body’s alignment.


The best mattress for the least amount of money, which should fall within your price point, is the Eco-Terra Hybrid Latex Mattress.

For her weight, I would normally recommend getting that mattress in Medium.

But since she has sustained some damage to her spine, the Medium Firm is the better option.


If she needs a softer sleeping surface, the mattress can be altered to accommodate her cheaply enough without sacrificing the underlying firm support her back requires.

Let me know if she needs to soften it after she’s tried it for a few nights.

There are several options.


Here’s a link to that mattress:

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks, TME
