Pain: The Sleep Thief

What is the best mattress for chronic back or lumbar pain??

     Pain and sleep go hand and hand. Chronic pain has become a very common problem in this generation. Pain affects your ability for a good nights rest. It can be the reason for waking up multiple times at night, resulting in sleep deprivation. Having arthritis, and rolling on your side all throughout the night, gets to be a relentless effort in the pursuit of comfort.


      The first step to stealing your sleep back is to figure out what the cause is. Pain may not be the only thing interfering with your sleep.
     Improving sleep in people with chronic pain, such as lower back pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and diabetic nerve pain can be helped with medication. Also, an important factor is how old is your mattress and pillows. Do they offer the proper support for your body?

What do Bedding Experts recommend for people with back, neck or body pain?

Firstly, we recommend consulting with a physician about any back related issues before thinking that a mattress will solve your back problems.

1.) Pillows: Let's start with your pillow. This is perhaps one of the most important to getting proper sleep alignment. If your neck is to forward as with a solid piece of foam or if your neck stays too hot due to poor circulation of air flowing through the pillow. It is best reccommended to purchase a pillow that is made from real quality memory foam, chunked not solid. New advancements in technology have added cool gel infused with the memory foam but don't be fooled with pillows that offer cool gel with only a thin film over it as it will not allow any air to flow or cool factor.

2.) Mattresses: Studies have proven firm or extra firm mattresses are not beneficial to relieving chronic pain in fact they keep your pain areas constantly inflammed as the muscles are not able to relax, the only exception is if you sleep on your back then a firmer mattress is good. Keep in mind if a mattress seems uncomfortable then it's not right for you. a more plush pressureless mattress allows your body to enter into a state of relaxation, a deeper sleep, therefore you have a better chance of letting the healing process take over. Pillowtops are too soft, but work well for plus size people that sleep on their side or stomach.

3.) Motion: Many folks steer away from adjustable bed bases simply because of the high cost. The average sale is around $7000 on the market to get quality. Barter Post Trade-Up Store in Rainsville AL has a different approach that is gaining popularity with over 18,000 fans on facebook. A special program has been put in place for the community to purchase motion beds at Wholesale Cost plus 10%, under this progam a queen adjustable bed base only cost's $620 then if you want massage add  $100 - Mattresses are sold the same way under this wholesale program for the community.
