A Latex Topper for a Too Firm Simmons Beautyrest Mattress to Relieve Sciatica Pain.

Margaret writes:

 

Hi Pete, 

What is the best latex topper--which firmness--for sciatica pain? 

I have a Simmons Beautyrest firm mattress which is way too firm for comfort. 

I want a topper to soften up the bed for my pressure points but still provide the necessary firmness to keep my spine aligned. 

I tried a memory foam topper on this same Simmons mattress and it sank in and was awful. 

Which latex foam mattress topper do you recommend? Firm or medium and Talalay or Dunlop?
Thanks, Margaret

Hi Margaret,

The EverEden 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper does the optimum job pressure point relief and comfort, for most people...(average or above average in weight).

If you are very heavy or very light in weight, then the recommendation will change to accommodate that.

Here is the link. You can order on-line.

Thank you for your response, Pete.

I wanted to add that I am an overweight female--about 5 foot, 7 inches and 180 lbs.  

With my sciatica, I really want to avoid a sinking feeling in the topper.  

Are you saying that the soft or even medium topper provides the support (and spring back) needed to keep one's spine aligned?  

If I were to get the more dense Dunlop topper, would you recommend a medium 2" to accomplish spinal support?

Would that provide pressure point comfort?  Maybe 3" is better?

Thanks, Margaret

 

 

Hi Margaret,

You don't need added support. Your mattress is providing that.

You need comfort.

It's seems to be natural for people to assume that if x amount of something is good, then more is bound to be better.

This is not true. 

The 3" tends to create a greater depth of softness, which seems to work only for those who are exerting less pressure. 

The 3" is better for a petite female in the 5' 100 lb. range.

For everyone else, the heavier parts of your body sink too far, which throws off the natural alignment of your spine.

Latex is nothing like memory foam. 

You don't sink through it. It cushions and contours to you, maintaining your proper alignment.

You are suspended by it. A floating, zero-gravity feel is the best description.

 

Thanks, Pete

Replacing Our Old Mattress with a Simmons Beautyrest.

Anne writes:

 

Hi Peter, 

I am hoping you can give me some advice.  

We have been sleeping on an older mattress, with the latex topper we purchased from you, several months ago.  

The topper made a nice difference, but we are still not really satisfied with our mattress.  

So, I am wondering what "traditional" mattress brand you recommend?  

From searching on your website, it seems that would be a Simmons Beautyrest.  

Thank you, Anne

 

 

Hi Anne,

For adults, we recommend the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove Luxury Firm....with the latex topper you already have.

Here is a link to that mattress:

Back Pain Relief, Simmons Beautyrest Gibson Grove and Latex Mattress Topper.

Hi Pete,

I am considering the Simmons Beautyrest Legend as an equivalent to the Simmons Beautyrest Black.  

They had the luxury firm pillowtop on display at the store. 

My husband weighs about 180 pounds, and I weigh about 145, and we both like to sleep on our side and on our backs. 

Any suggestions on which model of the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum you would recommend in our case? 

My husband doesn't like a mattress that is too soft, as he struggles with back pain.

Can you also tell me more about what the delivery process is like? 

(Would they set up mattress and haul away the old one, or just bring the mattress inside
the house and leave it there, etc).

Thank you, Vanessa 

Hi Vanessa,

For the record, the Legend is nothing more than the Platinum Beautyrest with a couple of extra bells
and whistles that don't amount to much. In no way does the Legend compare to the Black models.
Because the Legend is an exclusive for the store, they overprice it and try to justify the jacked up 
price by lying about the quality. 
The mattress we recommend for your sizes, is the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove in 
Luxury Firm. Add to that, an EverEden 2" soft Talalay latex mattress topper to go on it.
The latex provides pressure point relief and muscle relaxation without sacrificing the firm support 
of the mattress. 
The latex topper is much more resilient than the pillowtops, which lose their shape and comfort 
quickly.
Because the latex is so resilient, it will absorb most of your body weight and in turn, extend the life
 of the mattress by double that which it would normally have. What's more, the support from the 
mattress will relieve your back pain.
Here are the links to those products.

Eclipse Medicoil Mattress with a Latex Topper For a Very Big Man.

Juan writes:

 

Hi Peter, 

We Purchased a mattress from you in 2012.

It was an Eclipse Medicoil Mattress with a latex topper.

Is there any chance that you still offer this mattress? We want to upgrade to a king size.

I'm a very big man, 6' 1" and weigh 430 lbs. with herniated discs.

My wife is 160 lbs., and loves the feel of this firm mattress and soft latex topper.

Thanks, Juan 

 

Good Morning Juan,

That mattress, you have, is no longer being made.

I’m happy to hear that it served you well.

 

What I can offer you, today, it a very high quality mattress...like the one we sleep on at home. 

It's made by Natura of Canada...their Greenspring mattress in Firm.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/natura-greenspring-pocketed-coil-mattresses/

Natura of Canada Greenspring Pocketed Coil and Latex Mattresses | The Mattress Expert The Liberta Firm Mattress delivers improved well being and scrumptious comfort with eco-friendly flair. A layer of NaturaWool™ maintains temperature control and gently buffers pressure points to diminish nighttime tossing and turning. themattressexpert.com

The components of this mattress are of the highest quality.

The coil count is very high and the steel from which the coils are made, are twice tempered for greater durability.

The primary upholstery material is firm Talalay Latex.

You will still need a softer latex topper to go on it for surface comfort.

I suggest the PureBliss 2” Plush Talalay Latex Topper.

Serta I-Comfort Mattress is Causing Pressure Point Pain.

Reba writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have a Serta I-comfort medium hybrid mattress, 3 months old.

I am a side sleeper, and I am having pressure point pain with this mattress. 

Would a good latex topper help or do I need to try another mattress?

Thanks, Reba

 

Hi Reba,

Anymore, a latex topper is necessary to use with any name brand mattress.

It overcomes the negative effects of the memory foam in the mattress.

It’s better to buy a mattress without memory foam.

If you are able to exchange your mattress without cost, send me a link to the website of the store from where you bought it. I’ll help you pick out something better.

However, most stores are a sea of mattresses, all upholstered with memory foam.

If you’re past your exchange time, then yes, a latex topper for what you have will help.

Here is a link where you can view and buy one. A 2” Plush Talalay Latex Topper is all you need.

https://themattressexpert.com/pure-latexbliss-toppers/

If you decide to order a latex topper, try it on top of your mattress first.

Then, after a couple of nights, flip the mattress over and add the topper.

You’ll find one side to be more comfortable than the other. Simply use it that way.

Quite often, it’s the flip side with the topper on it, that is preferred.

Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

A Latex Topper for a Simmons Beautyrest Zoui Plush Mattress?

Teresa writes:

 

Hi there: 

I asked you a question a few months ago and am planning to buy a latex topper for my son, but have a little more info and wonder what you would suggest.

My son, currently, owns Simmons Beautyrest Zoui Plush mattress. It is 3+ years old and he has it on a wooden slatted frame. 

He is 29 years old but has recurring back problems - mostly lower back and sometimes sciatica.

Are we wasting our money to just purchase a 3" latex topper to place on his current mattress? 

We cant really afford to spend a lot of money right now, but I want to do the right thing 

(I purchased a latex topper from you a couple of years ago to put on our Sleep number bed.

It has been comfortable for both my husband and I who have back troubles as well....)

Thank you for your help,

Teresa

 

 

Hi Teresa,

A plush Beautyrest is made plush by using a much thinner gauge wire to make the coils.

It wears out quickly and provides terrible support...not to mention the memory foam, which adds to the poor quality.

A latex topper won’t help in this case. He needs a mattress that provides adequate support.

We carry a mattress that ships ups, which keeps the cost down.

It’s an old fashioned two sided mattress, using the same type but much stronger coil unit than the Beautyrest.

The upholstery is natural plant based poly foam...and no memory foam.

He’ll be comfortable on the Brolynn Plush.

Firm Simmons Beautyrest Mattress and an EverEden Soft Latex Topper to Relieve Back Pain.

Dan writes:

 

Hello Pete,
I have read your advice regarding Simmons plush mattresses.
I have one of the dreaded Simmons Beautyrest Imperial "plush" mattresses. 

Only 2 years old, I am convinced that it is far too soft and the cause of my poor sleep and back pain. 

I wish I had returned it while I could have.
Since sleeping on a cheap futon recently and waking up refreshed and pain-free, I have decided to do something about my own bed.
However, I spent a lot of money on the Simmons plush, and I have very little budget for this problem.
Is it at all possible to firm it up? I realize that the problem lies in the thin gauge springs and doubt that anything can be done.
I have placed plywood under which has helped a tiny bit. 

I am thinking that I could flip it over so that the very thick (and too soft) pillow top would be on the bottom.
Would a firm latex topper placed on the now-flipped "bottom" help me out then? 

Or, is putting a firm topper on a weak-sprung mattress an unwise way to approach this dilemma?
Thank you for any advice you may provide, Dan

Hi Dan,

A human body requires some degree of firm support and some degree of a soft sleeping surface.

What you're proposing is just the opposite of what your body needs.

I'm afraid this "band-aid" approach will not have the desired effect.

Here are links to an affordable solution.

EverEden 2" Soft Latex Topper on a Too Firm Mattress to Relieve Shoulder Pain.

I'd always used hand me down mattresses and then finally splurged and bought a Simmons Beautyrest Firm mattress, a few months ago. 

It felt good on my back in the store, but I've become more of a side sleeper and this mattress has become unbearable painful on my shoulders. 

I tried a memory foam topper and it stunk, too hot and too annoying when rolling from sided to side, like quick sand. 

Anyways stumbled across mention of natural latex toppers, full mattresses just too expensive, which sound like what might help me.

Which latex topper do you recommend?

 

 

All you need is 2" of Soft Latex to make your mattress comfortable. The EverEden brand is pure, 
all natural latex...the best in quality.

Natural Talalay Latex Mattress Toppers Delivered to Canada.

Janet writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I've written to you before and you were kind enough to help me find a good mattress for my husband and I, here in Canada.

We took your advice and ended up with a luxury firm Simmons Beautyrest. 

The back pain we had been experiencing, totally disappeared, just as you said it would.

However, we are getting some pain from pressure points, shoulders and hips. 

After reading more of your blog, we see that you often recommend a soft talalay latex topper to relieve pressure points.

It sounds like the perfect solution. Can you tell me where I can find in Canada?

Thanks again for all of your help. Janet

 

Hi Janet,

The soft talalay latex mattress topper will, not only relieve your pressure points, it will also relax your muscles for deep night's sleep.

What's more, latex is extremely resilient...absorbing most or all of your body weight. 

The result is a mattress that will last a whole lot longer than it would without the latex topper.

That makes a latex mattress topper the only thing you can buy in this industry that more than pays for itself.

There's no need to go hunting for one. We deal with a company in Quebec, "Natura".

Their Talalay Latex comes from the same source as our others...Latex International, here in the states.

I understand that Canadians are often subject to suffering along with Chinese imports. Not the case here. 

Here is a link to those. I recommend the lesser expensive "Ultimate" model. 

 

UPS Delivery is free anywhere in Canada...and, there's none of that 13% sales tax.

Fibromyalgia, Memory Foam Mattress, Latex Topper.

Brian writes:

 

Hello, 

I was browsing your site, and decided to email you looking for a recommendation from you on a mattress, a topper, both, whatever.

Me: 6'1", 270 pounds, age 50 - shoulder problems only when lying down (!) that are starting to interrupt my sleep.

Wife: 5'7", 130 pounds, age 50 - has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and generally has trouble sleeping/waking up at night.  

We made the obvious mistake of getting a memory foam mattress from Bed In A Box, a few years ago. 

Any recommendation appreciated.

Thank you, Brian

 

Hi Brian,

Your bed consists of varying layers of foams.

At least one of them is a high density poly foam.

Rearrange what you have so that the memory foam is on the bottom and the firm poly foam is on the top.

Add to that, a 2" soft Talalay latex foam mattress topper.

Latex is far more resilient and more comfortable than memory foam.

Here is the link to the latex foam mattress toppers.

You will use this topper on your next mattress also.
