Excruciating Back Pain on a Memory Foam Mattress.

Heather writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We have a memory foam mattress. 

I sleep on my side and the pain and numbness are unbearable. 

My leg and back pain are excruciating.

What type of topper do you recommend?

I am also sleeping hot.

Thanks, Heather

 

Hi Heather,

The bad news is that you bought one of the worst mattresses possible...and for all the reason you mentioned.

The good news is that there is an easy long term fix, that is reasonably inexpensive.

That fix is a Suite Sleep Organic 2" Soft Latex Mattress Topper.

Like the sun and the moon, night and day, the north pole and the equator...memory foam and latex foam are polar opposites....like comparing the worst to the best.

Latex is and has been thee best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Memory foam has proven itself to be the absolute worst material ever invented, since it was introduced about 20 years ago.

And, latex sleeps cool....while memory foam sleeps hot.

The Suite Sleep 2" Soft Organic Latex Topper is made of the highest quality latex on the market.

100% pure, all natural, organic latex...no fillers or chemicals.

Here is the link...you can order online.

I am looking for an old fashioned mattress with springs.

Hi Pete,

I am looking for an old fashioned mattress with springs. No fancy foam or gel. 

I have tried everything out there and am tired of taking mattresses to the dump. 

I sleep in hotels frequently, and occasionally come across a spring mattress that is quite comfortable. 

When I go to a mattress store, they say I can't buy that and try to sell you a foam mattress with a sales pitch.

 

I came across an article about the Therapedic Two Sided Cameo Plush. 

But the article is from 2013 and the link is no good.  

I have gone to Therapedic's website and cannot find the mattress there. Has this been discontinued? 

Can you recommend anything similar?

Thanks, Gregg

 

Hi Gregg,

The Therapedic Cameo was a great mattress.

My daughter got the first one ever made.

My wife and I sleep on it when we visit.

It has been discontinued for years.

 

We carry a similarly made, old fashioned two sided mattress from Wolf.

It’s just as you’re wanting…coils and polyurethane foam…like the materials used in that hotel mattress.

I recommend ordering that in plush for comfort.

Here is a link to that mattress.

What can I do about a sagging Tempurpedic mattress?

Hi Pete,

Hi Pete,

What can I do about a sagging Tempurpedic mattress?

This mattress is only 3 years old and sags terribly, after I've been in bed for an hour.

When I get out of bed, it looks fine.

When I complained, they asked me to measure the impression.

But without me being in the mattress, there's very little of an impression.

I've been told that my mattress is normal and they won't exchange it for a new one.

I'm still making monthly payments for this worthless pos!

I can't afford to replace it. Is there anything can I do?

Please HELP!

Georgina

 

Hi Georgina,

What you're experiencing is very common with any memory foam mattress.

They advertise it, and sales people talk about that junk, as if it were the best thing since sliced bread.

The reason?...profit!

It's all about "The Benjamins", to reiterate a recently coined phrase.

 

However, there is a workable, long-term solution to your problem.

The bad part of the mattress, the memory foam, is only on top of the mattress.

Supporting the memory foam, is firm high density polyurethane foam.

 

Step #1, flip the mattress over...putting the memory foam side down, where it can no longer hurt you.

The underside is very firm and may be too firm to sleep on comfortably.

Use whatever you have on hand, like a comforter, to soften it.

 

Step #2, add a Suite Sleep 3" Soft Organic Latex Topper.

This will provide you long term surface comfort that is, by far, higher in quality than memory foam.

Latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

It sleeps cool and won't allow you to sink. 

The best description of the feel it provides, is one of Floating.

Natural Talalay, All Latex Natura of Canada Mattress

Sue writes:

 

Hi Pete,

What would I get if I wanted an all foam mattress, but one with no memory foam.

I hate memory foam. It stinks, gives me a headache and sleeps hot.

I want firm support and a soft top that I won't sink through, like I do with memory foam.

Thanks, Sue

 

Hi Sue,

You'd get a Natural Talalay Latex Mattress from Natura.

The Bourdolay Plush model is the most popular, providing excellent support and comfort 

An all latex mattress is, also, good for reducing motion transfer.

And, an all latex mattress lasts a very long time....remaining like new for many years

NO “All Foam” Mattress is the right choice for a disc related back problem.

Judy writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We are looking at an all foam king size mattress that has 9” high density foam base layer plus 3” firm top layer of latex, 

and made with CertiPUR-US foam.

The mattress ticking is soft and breathable with sustainable fibers including Tencel and Repreve.  

It is a one sided mattress with a ten year warranty.  

I love a firm mattress due to some previous disc problems in my back.   

The mattress is made in USA by Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams. Have you had any experience with this mattress?

 

I have totally enjoyed your website, and learning all sorts of information about mattresses.

Thanks, Judy

 

 

Hi Judy,

I’ve never heard of that brand.

A moot point, really.

There is NO “All Foam” mattress that is the right choice for a disc related back problem.

None, not even the best of them, provide the necessary push back support against the spine needed to relieve that kind of back pain, long term.

A pre-compressed, individually pocketed unit does the best job of support.

The best we carry is the Natura of Canada Greenspring.
