A Simmons Beautyrest Mattress and Latex Topper to Relieve Sciatica and Back Pain.

Paul writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My wife carries all her stress in her neck and shoulders. 
She holds all her tension in that area and gets headaches and muscle tension in those areas. 
She is 5'3" and around 120-125 lbs
I have sciatic issues. When I first got out of the military, I could barely walk.. SI joint issues and lower back issues. 
I stay active focus on back exercises and stretches for sciatica, but I still have sore back and hip issues. 
I have neck issues but not as bad as my wife. I like a cool bed and don't really like being hot. 
I have disc degeneration in L4 and L5 but it's been a while since a flare up.. 
I am 5'8" 210 lbs. I've lost 15#, lately, and plan on another 20#
I have PTSD and TBI so I don't always sleep the greatest. 
But, I slept on a Simmons Beautyrest at a Holiday inn Express and had an awesome sleep on that bed. 
But, I've also read the reviews on those mattresses and they don't last very long. 
That's when I saw your review. 
Thanks, Paul
 
 
Good Morning Paul,
The reason why you sleep so well on a Simmons Beautyrest mattress is due to the pre-compressed, individually pocketed coil system.
They use a 9” coil, compressed into a 7” pocket, so the coils are always pushing back against your spine.
The coils move independently from one another, providing contouring support that automatically adjusts to the shape of your body and maintains the natural alignment of your spine.
Worn discs pinch nerves, which is what causes your sciatica.
Having the vertebrae properly aligned is what keeps the nerves from being pinched.
 
The thing about the Simmons Beautyrest that causes them to perform so poorly is the memory foam upholstery. But that is easily overcome with a latex topper.
Latex is the best upholstery material and has been for the last 100 years.
Adding a layer of latex insulates you from the memory foam and provides longevity to a mattress that was, otherwise, designed to last only a short time.
 
The mattress to buy is the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove Luxury Firm.
Shown here:
0005101_simmons-beautyrest-platinum-gibson-grove-luxury-firm_300

 
The EverEden Pure, All Natural 2” Soft Talalay Latex Topper is what you’ll add to it.
Shown here:
EverEden Topper_side-straps2

 
Used together, the mattress will remain like new for many years.
And, that latex topper provides extraordinary surface comfort.
 
The other problems, your wife’s stress induced neck and shoulder pain, and your PTSD,
are not mattress related issues.
However, there is a way for you to address both of those problems.
Sit your wife in front of you and massage her neck and shoulders regularly.
 
Women, it seems to me, are easily stressed...fretting over all sorts of things.
And if PTSD can be soothed by petting an animal, logic dictates that massaging a woman’s body would enhance that effect.
Killing two birds with one stone, so to speak.
 
We do carry a pillow that is most helpful for relieving chronic neck pain.
I must admit that it works better on neck pain caused by some sort of physical problem.
Stress is more mental.
If you’d like to try that, here’s a link to that pillow.
 

The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes removal of your old mattress.
The topper and pillow ship UPS.
Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Is a Simmons Beautyrest Black Mattress and Adjustable Bed Base right for me?

Christie writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I just recently bought a Simmons Beautyrest Black mattress from one of those large chain stores. 
After sleeping on it for four days, I have been tossing and turning at night and now have a stiff neck. 
The bed I received seems considerably squishy in my heaviest area and much softer than the one I laid on in the store.
The store labels it as a plush mattress. 
I really liked that this model had a medium firm support and comfort at the same time without having to buy a pillow-top mattress.  
It feels like the one that was delivered to my house is different (possibly used). 
Would the manufacturer or retailer actually do that, hence the voided warranty if it has any marks or stains. 
There wasn't even any odor once it arrived like my salesperson said there would be. 
I am a 34 year old female and weigh about 170 lbs. 
This bed comes with a 100 day satisfaction guaranteed or I can swap it out for another mattress at no cost. 
Not sure if I made the right decision. I don't want to spend $2,000 plus on a mattress that isn't right for me. 
Do you have any suggestions of what mattress I should swap to if I go that route?
Will the adjustable bed base ruin my mattress by adjusting it up and down all the time. 
Should I have just bought the regular box spring and saved myself some money?   
Much appreciated, Christie
 
 
Hi Christie,
The Simmons Black is a great product...for support.
Mistakes you made were two: the luxury plush model over the luxury firm model...and, the adjustable bed base.
 
All of Simmons' plush models are such a continual problem, that I list none of them on my website. 
An adjustable bed base is a great thing to have if you use your bedroom to hang out in.
For sleeping, it's a waste of money, unless you have a specific breathing problem that requires it.
But even then, there are less expensive ways to deal with those problems.
And, if you do get an adjustable bed base, the mattress will wear out quicker in the area just under your butt.
When you raise the head, the bulk of your body weight shifts to that point in the mattress.
 
(The best mattress for that kind of base is all latex, which is durable enough to take the punishment...and, an all natural latex mattress is plenty comfy.)
 
I would have suggested that you return that mattress and bed base.
Opt for the same mattress in luxury firm with a standard boxspring.
Add to that, an EverEden Pure, All Natural 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper.
Shown here:
Latex Mattress topper

 
Comfort exchanges are a sucker's bet...for lack of a more gentle way to put it.
The manufacturers do not participate in this scam.
So, when you deal with a retailer that offers it, you could easily wind up with something someone else had sent back.
There are a couple of ways to know. 
One sure fire way is to inspect the bag the mattress comes in. If it's been taped closed, you know that mattress is not new.
When they are bagged at the factory, the plastic is heat sealed on all four sides.
In your case, the red flag is that the mattress is softer than the floor sample. 
When the delivered mattress is, in fact, new...it's always firmer than the floor sample.
 
The stain clause is written in stone, in every manufacturer's warranty. Perspiration stains are evidence of an unprotected mattress. 
Moisture that seeps into the mattress will break down the upholstery layers. It's important to use a waterproof mattress protector. 
 
The latex topper, I recommended for use on the firmer mattress, will provide better and much longer lasting surface comfort.
The firmer mattress will provide you with better support.
 
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Hip and Sciatica Pain on Memory Foam Mattresses. Natura of Canada Greenspring Relieves Pain.

Bruce writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My wife has M/S and pain sciatica Pain. We are on our 4th bed shopping experience. 
She gets also gets neck pain. she is a side sleeper. 
We have tried sleep number, tempurpedic, and a bamboo memory foam. We are now looking at a Sealy memory gel bed. 
Would you recommend this. We have an adjustable bed and the salesman told my wife to try to sleep in the zero gravity position at night. 
She tried that last night, and it didn't work out well.
I weigh 215 and 6 foot in height she is 5 feet 7 and had a titanium rod put in her hip after she broke it. 
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Bruce
 
Hi Bruce,
Memory foam is a temperature sensitive material. As it warms from your body's heat, it sinks. The underlying foam, that supports it, is stiff and hard.
Besides fighting that rod in her hip, it throws off the alignment of her spine, which isn't helping her sciatica any.
Memory foam is the absolute worst material ever invented for use in or as a mattress. Even your Sleep Number air mattress had memory foam inside.
Not to mention that an air mattress provides lousy support, all on it's own.
 
Have you noticed how hard memory foam sold...heavily advertised, and pushed by salespeople? 
You must have thought they had your best interest at heart. Why else would you continue to buy a product that doesn't work?!
You must not have, up till now, realized, that it's the memory foam causing her so much pain, or you wouldn't still be considering buying it again. 
 
You, your wife, your neighbor and his wife, the butcher around the corner and the secretary at your office, all have one thing in common....the human body.
Everyone's body is essentially the same, and just a little different. 
Good basic support and comfort is easy to address. It's in fitting all the small differences, that is the challenge. 
However, the same basic rules apply to all, to some degree. 
What every body needs is firm support and comfortable sleeping surface that allows for a greater depth of sleep.
I believe that all those memory foam salespeople have promised that to you...and you can see how poorly their advice has worked.
The purpose of memory foam is to make the sale. It's comfortable enough, initially...but not worth a damn before too long.
 
So, getting what you need isn't difficult. There are tons of mattresses that will provide you firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface. 
What you have difficulty finding, is a mattress with quality components, so that it will stay that way for a respectable period of time. 
In all facets of life, it is unreasonable to expect a different result from repeating the same behavior. 
If you like the way things are going, keep doing what you're doing. If not, you have to make a change.
In this case, the change is away from memory foam to latex. 
Latex is natural rubber and has been the best material available anywhere on the planet, for use in or as a mattress, for the past 100 years. 
This isn't just an opinion. It's a proven, undisputed fact. 
 
Your skeletal system needs firm support to maintain its alignment  
When you have back problems, you are more sensitive to the changes a mattress goes through as it wears. 
For you, a person without back problems, you are not affected by those changes. 
For your wife, the smallest changes can result in that nerve in her lower back being pinch by the vertebrae...sending that pain around her hip and down her leg. (Sciatica)
 
When the padding on top of the mattress sinks in, as your memory foam does, her hip hits the hard foam under it and the result is the pain for her.
There aren't a lot of choices for you on most showroom floors, when you're looking for this "right" mattress. The great majority of them won't do the job.
An individually pocketed coil unit provides contouring support...support designed to maintain the natural alignment of your spine. 
 
The best type of mattress that provides this type of support, is The Natura of Canada Greenspring.
The coils are more numerous and stronger than most others of its kind.
What's more the upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex, which provides cushioning, but won't allow you or her to sink.
Latex is both, comfortable and resilient. It holds you up and provides the feeling of "Floating".
What's more, latex is the longest lasting upholstery material available...remaining like new for many years.
Of the 4 models in their line, the Ultra Plush is the most comfortable, and the one I recommend for the two of you.
These mattresses have NO Memory Foam.
That mattress, shown on this link:
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
 

Also, that adjustable bed base isn't helpful for anything other sitting up to watch TV. 
It has little to no therapeutic value. When sleeping, it needs to be flat, in order for her spine to maintain its proper alignment.
This will also relieve the pressure at her hip.
 
To relieve chronic neck pain, there is no better pillow than the Pure Bliss Latex/Down.
There's no down in it. It's 100% finely chopped latex.
It's the finely chopped latex that allows you to form the mattress around your head and neck anyway you want...which is what relieves the pain.
In this, it behaves like a down pillow...which why they call it Latex/Down.
Unlike a down pillow that flattens out within a week, latex lasts for years.
Here is a link to that pillow.
Pure Talalay Bliss Latex Down Pillow

 

The pillow arrives via UPS.
The mattress comes with White Glove Delivery, which includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of your old mattress.
Both are delivered free and there's no sales tax.
 
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Question about Latex Foam Mattress Toppers.

Kay writes:
 
Hello Peter,
I found your website and I have a question about latex foam mattress toppers
Can a topper help with neck, shoulder and hip pain? 
I'm a retired police officer this lots of injuries through the years.
What do you suggest?
Thank you, Kay


Hi Kay,
Only latex foam toppers provide long term solutions.
More specifically, The EverEden Pure, All Natural 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper does the best job of relieving pain from pressure points.
This latex is made by Latex International in Connecticut....finished and sold by EverEden in Massachusetts.
Here is a link where you can buy one.

Neck pain is best addressed with a pillow.
I've been using a pillow that was introduced a few years ago. 
It has worked wonders on relieving my chronic neck pain, which I had suffered with for years.
Here is a link to that pillow....the Latex/Down model...also made by Latex International.

Neck and Shoulder Pain from an Old Latex Mattress.

Hi Pete,
 
My wife and I have had a high quality latex mattress for 16 years now. It has truly been a
great mattress.
Every year or two we either rotate or flip it and it does not appear to show any signs of
failing. My wife sleeps mostly on her side and I sleep mostly on my stomach or back.
She sleeps great, but for a year or so now, I wake up with neck and shoulder pain. I
noticed that when I travel and sleep on an innerspring mattress with a pillow top I wake
up feeling much better. 
We don't think the latex mattress is failing, and my wife still loves it, so replacing it may
not solve the problem.
Do you have any insights or recommendations?        
Thanks, Chris
 
Hi Chris,
The news is all good, with a reasonably inexpensive and long term fix to your problem.
Latex takes a long time to wear. And how it wears is the best part. It generally
becomes firmer, which is why it isn't as comfortable as it once was. The good thing 
about that, is you still have plenty of support, which means you don't need a new mattress.
Simply add an EverEden 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper to your mattress.  You will be good to
go with a very comfortable sleeping surface that will last for years to come.
Follow this link.

We also carry a latex pillow that has been a Godsend for relieving chronic neck pain.
It's made of finely chopped latex that can be manipulated like a down pillow...without wearing 
out like a down pillow.
It's made by Pure Talalay Bliss, called "Latex/Down".
Here is the link to that.

Latex/Down Pillow for Relief of Chronic Neck Pain.

Hi Pete,
Thanks for the advice I did order the EverEden 2" Soft Vytex Dunlop latex topper. I am
extremely pleased with the comfort it provides. 
I do have another question, about pillows. I have neck pain issues. I have tried many
different pillows and never found one that works, I am a side sleeper and I like a firm
pillow but all of the foam pillows that I have tried I have found do not conform enough
to my head and neck. I was looking at your "Latex/Down" pillow, and all the things you 
have to say about it. 
Do you think it will work for me?
Thanks, Mike
Hi Mike,
The Pure Talalay Bliss "Latex/Down" pillow does what your other pillows didn't...contour
around your head and neck.
It provides the support necessary to maintain proper alignment, which does, in fact, 
relieve chronic neck pain. 
I have arthritis on the left side of my neck, which created constant pain I lived with
for years.
Within 2 nights of using that mattress, my pain went away and hasn't returned. And, 
it lasts for years....unlike most other types of pillows.
Here's the link to that pillow:

Pure Talalay Bliss Latex-Down Pillow to Relieve Chronic Neck Pain.

John writes:
 
Hi Pete,
You seem to know a lot about mattresses. I'm hoping you know something about pillows and can help me with my chronic neck pain.
I find it impossible to find one that lasts very long. 
After buying a new pillow, my pain subsides some, but then the pillow starts to flatten out and the pain returns full force.
Can you direct me to a pillow that will work and last?
Thanks, John
 
Hi John,
We are kindred sufferers. I have arthritis on one side of my neck and suffered with the pain it causes for many years.
Like you, I've tried countless types of pillows that help me feel better initially, but loses their resiliency much to quickly.
The best for short term use was the down (feather) pillows for relieving pain, but flattened out faster than any other type.
Even all latex pillows, which last for years, don't quite fit my neck and only help with the pain a little.
A few years ago, I was given a pillow by the Pure Talalay Bliss mattress people. 
It was a new design...made of finely chopped latex.
It behaves like a down pillow...allowing me to mold the mattress around my head and neck so that it fit perfectly, regardless of my sleeping position.
As I had hoped, the pain subsided to the point of disappearing. 
What's more, it's now a few years later and that very same pillow it still performing as well as it did when it was new.
Don't get me wrong. I still have arthritis and the pain comes and goes....usually due to changes in the weather.
But before using this Latex-Down pillow, (as it is called), the pain was constant...and now, it's rare.
We have been promoting it for a while and it sells well. But, the proof is not in how well I can sell it. The proof is in the re-orders.
That pillow works so on a variety of causes of neck pain, that people often order more for their loved ones.
Here is a link to that pillow, where you can order online. Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Simmons Beautyrest Black Desiree Luxury Firm and an EverEden 2" Soft Talalay Latex Mattress Topper.

Hi Pete,
I've spent the last couple of hrs reading  your website. 
I've been to the department stores and came close to purchasing from a mattress store--a Simmons Beautyrest. 
I think it was one from their Black series. 
With that said...
 
MY Concerns:
  1. rheumatoid arthritis -- specifically hands, feet
  2. constant low back pain
  3. neck --end of January I'm scheduled for a surgical procedure to un-pinch a nerve at the  base of my neck that is causing severe problems with my arm and hand. I may also end up with fused cervical vertebrae
  4. water bed -- for the last 30 years -- I've been sleeping on a full bladder type -- bag of heated water. It is becoming increasingly more difficult to get out of the bed.
     I'm concerned about what happens when I have the neck surgery and equally concerned about adjusting to a mattress
  5. about 50 lbs overweight
  6. side sleeper
  7. intend to put the mattress on a plywood platform. I will be using my waterbed frame. I have a  carpenter who will 'make' the platform for me.
  8. will purchase online.  I've been to the department stores and mattress retailers and that's not been a comforting experience
  9. Having read your site extensively, I understand you are clear and concise in your recommendations. I believe it is your policy to work with your customers to make sure you sell the best mattress fitted to the individual. 
  10. right now -- I've come up with the following as a possibility: Simmons Beautyrest Black Desiree Luxury Firm and an EverEden 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper.
Can you kindly advise? Thanks for your time.
Dora

Hi Dora,
The time you spent reading has paid off. 
The Simmons Beautyrest Black Desiree Luxury Firm and EverEden 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper is an excellent choice.
This sleep system combination provides good, firm contouring support and a comfortable sleeping surface that remains like new for many years.
For your neck, we have a Pure Bliss "Latex/Down" pillow. 
Made of 100% natural, finely chopped latex, it's easily manipulated to mold around your head and neck for proper alignment of the vertebra and for muscle relaxation that results in reduced neck pain.
Here are the links to all of these products.

A Two Sided Mattress, Latex Topper and Latex Pillow to Relieve Arthritis, Neck and Back Pain.

Susan writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I am a side sleeper with arthritis, neck and back pain. 
Lately, I have been waking up sore all over. I know it is time for a new mattress and do not like a very hard mattress.  
I read about your latex mattress but it is a little to pricey for me.  Do you have anything in queen for around $1000 to $1200 tops? 
I have not been using a boxspring but can if it is required. I'm 5'2" @ 170 lbs. Can you advise me? 
Thanks, Susan
 
Hi Susan,
A boxspring is not necessary, which will allow you to maximize your mattress purchase.
A mattress that is strong enough to support your size an still be reasonably comfortable is the Two Sided Brolynn plush.
Shown here:
Double Sided Brolyn-

This mattress has no memory foam.
Add to it, an EverEden Pure, All Natural, 2" soft Talalay Latex Topper, which will do a great job of cushioning your arthritis.
The latex is far more resilient than the other foams, so it will also extend the life of your mattress.

Together, they are within your budget and include delivery and there's no sales tax.
I might also suggest a new pillow.

A Motion Reducing Mattress for R.A., Fibromyalgia, Neck Pain.

Susan writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I need some mattress advice. I have RA, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia. I tend to have severe hip pain and knee pain during a flare-up. 
I can experience so much pain in bed that I spend the entire night changing position, trying to relieve the pain from contact with the mattress. 
My husband has neck pain from deterioration of cartilage.  The mattress we have now, is a Sealy Posturpedic Luxury Firm, two sided mattress. 
We've had it for quite a few years and have loved it. We rotated and flipped it for even wear. 
It was very firm, but now, every time you move, it bothers the other person and isn't as supportive. 
It is a queen, but we are moving up to a king. 
My husband is six feet tall and around 205 pounds. I am 5 ft. 3 in. and 165 pounds. 
We both like a firm bed and would appreciate a recommendation from you. 
Thanks, Susan
 
Hi Susan,
The interlocking coils of your Posturepedic provides a more rigid base support. Besides feeling each other move, it's also aggravating your RA and Fibro.
Switch to a Simmons Beautyrest, which has an individually pocketed coil unit. 
The coils move independently from one another, providing a more contouring support. 
This will ease your pressure point at the hip and offer some relief for you and eliminate the motion transfer that disturbs your husband.
For the additional surface softness, that your conditions require, add a 2" soft Talalay latex topper to the mattress. 
Latex, besides being extremely comfortable, is also the most resilient upholstery material available.
You'll end up with good firm support and excellent surface softness that won't break down the way a soft mattress will, under your husband's size.
I also have a latex/down pillow that works wonders on severe neck pain.
The mattress I'm recommending is the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove in Luxury Firm.
Here are links to that mattress, the Pure Bliss latex topper and the Pure Bliss pillow to relieve your husband's neck pain.
