83 years old petite mom with scoliosis and sleep apnea.

Hi Pete,

I would be so grateful for your help with a mattress for my mother. 

She'll be 83 years old tomorrow, is petite...5'2" and 120lbs. 

Mom has severe scoliosis and sleep apnea. 

She hasn't had a good night's sleep in years and has hip pain daily. 

Most nights she sleeps in a recliner.

 

An adjustable base is a must. Is there a mattress you would recommend for her? 

She talking about all latex.

But after reading some of your posts, I'm not convinced that's best for her scoliosis. 

 

Fingers are crossed you have the magic solution she's been seeking!

Thanks, Susan

 

Hi Susan,

Let me start with what you think you know.

Your mothers head needs to be elevated.

Her spine requires that she sleeps with her spine in its best alignment.

As soon as you raise the head of an adjustable bed, you can forget about proper spinal alignment.

Here’s the best way to solve the breathing problem without exacerbating her back and hip pain.

These bed risers could very well be all you need to buy.

If she is still uncomfortable after you get those installed, get back to me about a mattress.

A Queen Size Mattress for Degenerative Disc Disease for $1000.

Jennifer writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I’ve been looking for a mattress and I’ve come to the same realization that you write about on here about mattresses and the mattress industry. 

I have narcolepsy with cataplexy, sleep apnea, RLS, degenerative disc disease.

I also have seizures in my sleep. 

I do sleep hot and always have. 

I am 47 5’6 and 224lbs and I sleep on my back mostly but sometimes my side as well as my stomach. 

I am on SSI and can’t afford anything over $1000.

I sleep on a queen size mattress with my granddaughter who is a very hot sleeper, wets the bed occasionally. 

What would you recommend for me to buy?

Thank you, Jennifer

 

Hi Jennifer,

The best mattresses at a reasonable price are these Wolf Hybrid models.

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

 

There’s no memory foam in these mattresses, so they don’t sleep hot.

The Adara is a bit firmer...better for Back and stomach sleeping and for your size.

The Tulah has a bit more surface comfort...better for side sleeping.

 

Both are very well made.

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

A Mattress for degenerating discs, arthritis and scoliosis.

Allison writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I am interested in purchasing a new mattress at the end of this month.  Is the number toll free for US residents?  

I am just starting my research … I have degenerating discs, arthritis and scoliosis.  

It sounds horrible but I am working with posture related exercises.

My PT says that as I transform my posture, my mattress won't matter so much. 

I sort of disagree with that. My Simmons Beautyrest Shakespeare luxury plush mattress only lasted about five years.

I now wake up in pain. It is not yet 7 years old. Yes, I have been suffering with this mattress for two years, saving up for a new one.

What are your suggestions?

Thanks, Allison

 

 

Hi Allison,

My phone is not toll free, as most people have unlimited calling phone plans. But, I can call you when the time comes.

 

While holding yourself with proper posture will certainly help, you have irreparable back damage. 

The right mattress will provide you proper support and comfort.

This will allow you to sleep and wake with minimal to no pain...depending on the severity of your back damage.

 

Before making a recommendation, I need to know your height and weight...and that of whomever may be sharing the bed with you.

Thanks, Pete

 

Hi Pete

I am just under 5' 7" and weigh 155.  My husband is just under 6 feet and about 170     

I am 59. He is 63, with constant hip pain due to a rod he had inserted due hip fracture from a skiing accident.  

The mattress we have doesn’t bother him at all!  

I have mild sleep apnea and use a machine, primarily to avoid him from poking me and waking me up. 

I start out on my back, but eventually end up on my side.

After my initial deep sleep cycle, back pain has been waking me up. 

I then move to the guest room where the mattress is newer.

I work at home but have learned not to sit all day. I have exercises from egoscue to improve aligning the spine     

My scoliosis is labeled functional, vs. congenital. It is improving at the top and is less rotating in the low Back .   

I have a few low back bulging discs but they don’t hurt any longer.   

I no longer need medication but do take supplements and over the counter pain meds.

I will most definitely be purchasing a mattress and topper the end of this month.  

Our limitations are that we cannot set it up so I cannot do door delivery only. 

I just noticed you are in the US, so calling you is not a problem. For some reason I thought you were in Canada. 
I have every intention of buying from you but I would like to be able to research what you suggest.

Can I buy just the mattress and use my current boxspring?

Do I need a new mattress protector? I already have one.

My last mattress set was a Beautyrest Recharge Shakespeare LXP.  

The set was $999 less the $400 credit for returning a five year old rhapsody that didn’t work   

I can’t imagine there would be much on the warranty now  since it is 6 1/2 years old. 

Plus, they add all kinds of fees which wash out the credit so I do want to cut the cord with that store.   

I do not know if my mattress is “firm” or not.  

It is a pillow top which I can see was not a good choice.

I have always heard firm was best but I’ve always been afraid of a too firm mattress not being comfortable.

A word about my spine.  

It may be irreversible but I feel better than I did five years ago and I’m five years older.  

I just bought a Herman Miller chair, which helps. 
Thanks, Allison 

 

 

Hi Allison,

A new mattress on an old boxspring will automatically void the mattress’ warranty.

So yes, a new boxspring is needed. And as you can see, it isn’t much more in price.

Also, when you buy the set, I’ll include a new frame, which the delivery guys will assemble for you.

 

It’s stains that will, also, void the mattress’ warranty.

Those you can get, simply from perspiration.

A mattress protector is a good idea.

If yours is made by Protect-a-Bed and has a terry cloth top, those tend to sleep hot.

The one we carry is made of organic cotton and does not sleep hot.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/xcart5/Organic-Mattress-Protector.html

But if you’re happy with the one you have, that’s fine.
*
Your Beautyrest is Plush, not Firm.
The support is inadequate for someone with disc damage.

Let me simplify this for you.
There are, essentially, two parts to your body...the inside and the outside.
The same is, basically, true of a mattress.
The inside of the mattress needs to be firm to support the inside of your body, the spine.
The outside of the mattress needs to be plush to cushion and comfort the outside of your body.
This combination is what every body needs to sleep well.

Your mattress is too soft on the inside.

What I recommend for you is similarly made to the Simmons Beautyrest.
Both use a pre-compressed individually pocketed coil unit.
This is ideal for maintaining the spine’s natural alignment...which key to relieving chronic back pain.
The Natura of Canada Greenspring mattresses use the same coil system.
But, the coils are much stronger and there are more of them.
What’s more, the upholstery material is far superior...remaining like new for many years.
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush is what we sleep on at home.
We, my wife and I, are both heavier than the two of you.
I have many back problems...herniated, bulging and degenerative discs.
I sleep and wake without pain.
Our mattress is now 4 years old and still in like new condition.
This is the mattress I recommend for you.
Shown here:
https://themattressexpert.com/liberty-ultra-plush/

This mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set up and removal of your old mattress.
Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

I also suggest you get, what is called, bed risers.
They are available on line, but less expensive at Big Lots.
Placed under the back legs of your bed frame, it provides a tilt that will make breathing easier. Once in place, you should be able to sleep without a cpap machine...and without getting poked. They are usually sold in sets of four, for only a few dollars.
*
As far as the mattress is concerned, you could go with a Simmons Beautyrest/Latex Topper combination.
That would be the Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove Luxury Firm Mattress 
Shown here:
https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/simmons/beautyrest-recharge-world-class/

And, a Pure Bliss 2” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper.
Shown here:
https://themattressexpert.com/pure-latexbliss-toppers/

This mattress also comes with white glove delivery, set up and removal.
The topper arrives via UPS.
Again, delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

The previously mentioned Natura mattress is already upholstered with Natural Talalay Latex.

It does not require the purchase of a separate latex topper.

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Protect and maximize your mattress investment. Use a waterproof mattress protector.

Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress to Relieve Fibromyalgia, Neck and Back Pain.

Susan writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have educated myself tremendously reading your website and blogs! 

Thank you so much for providing such a valuable service and helping so many people!

My 10 yr old Serta perfect sleeper pillowtop is seriously bowed in the middle. 

At about year seven, I added a feather topper which helped tremendously. Then it flattened and I added a second one.  Doesn't help. 

The toppers just sink into the big valley too. My back and neck hurt so bad that even a good neck pillow and chiropractic adjustments aren't helping. 

Only major pain pills help some.

I feel even a good talalay latex topper won't help the bed at this point. 

So.... I believe I need a new set.  I now know never to buy a pillowtop or memory foam mattress but I still need your help, please.

I am a 64 year old female, 5'3" tall, weigh 215 lbs and sleep alone. My neck and back were severely injured in an auto accident many years ago.  

Now, I have moderate-severe fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, sleep apnea, reflux and asthma. 

I'm a side sleeper and my hips, shoulders, knees and elbows are painful to touch and need major softness. 

My budget is $2000-2500 for a queen size set.

What do you recommend for me?

Thanks, Susan

 

 

Hi Susan,

The mattress I'm recommending is the same mattress we sleep on, at home.

The mattress is the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush.

The precompressed, double tempered, individually pocketed coils provide excellent support that will maintain the natural alignment of your spine.

The latex will provide extraordinary comfort that will ease your pain and remain like new for many years.

Here is a link to that mattress:

A Mattress for Scoliosis, Severe Back Pain and Sleep Apnea

Jessica writes:

 

Hi Pete

Last year, I underwent scoliosis correction surgery where they fused my whole thoracic spine (10 vertebrae). 

My scoliosis situation is a little different in the sense that most people with scoliosis only have one curve, as to where I had 3. 

Cervical/thoracic/lumbar. my lumbar was not corrected or fused but I do have DDD. 

I have severe pain and inflammation each day and I do not sleep through out the night on my current pillow top mattress which is pretty old.

I have read that you say, pillow tops do not hold up for very long...I purchased a memory foam topper for my bed but it feels like it rolls us to the middle of the bed.

Now I have the needs listed above but I also have to accommodate my husband who has sleep apnea.

Would you suggest something like a sleep number where we can each adjust to our own needs? 

How about an adjustable bed for my husband?

My needs fluctuate depending on the pain and inflammation level. 

Please help any advice on a mattress before I start the process of buying would be very helpful.

Thank you, Jessica

Hi Jessica,

Your situation is a bit complex. As such, it's incredibly important that you don't aggravate one condition while addressing another.

Your husband needs to be tilted, but your spinal condition requires you to remain flat.

So, lets start there.

We carry an adjustable bed base from Glideaway. This unit does everything any other adjustable base does, but also has a feature that none of the other adjustable bases have.

It'a their "Tilt" feature.

This tilt feature is unique. It tilts the bed while remaining flat. 

This allows for easier breathing for your husband, while providing the "unbent" support you spine issues require.

Here is a link to that line. I recommend the "Ascend" model as the better buy.

https://themattressexpert.com/mattress-foundations/glideaway-adjustable-bed-bases/

Glideaway Adjustable Bed Bases | The Mattress Expert themattressexpert.com The Elevation and Ascend models include a Tilt Feature, which allows your body to sleep elevated for easier breathing while remaining flat for side sleeping.

 

Your mattress needs to be firm to support your spine properly.

You also need a comfortable sleeping surface....and, you need these to remain like new and wear slowly over a long time.

That's the problem with today's pillowtops. They wear very quickly. 

The best quality mattress that will do everything you need it to do...and not wear out, is the Natura of Canada Greenspring Plush Eurotop.

That line, shown here:

Natura Greenspring Pocketed Coil Mattresses | The Mattress ... themattressexpert.com Greenspring Liberty Plush Euro Top. Experience deeper, more restorative sleep with the Liberty Plush Euro Mattress. Lush helpings of natural ingredients come together ...

 

This mattress will provide you with excellent support and comfort...and last for many years...using the highest quality components available.

The things you must avoid is memory foam and pillowtops. This mattress has neither.

 

Delivery is Free and there's NO SALES TAX

 

Protect your mattress from perspiration and other stains that will void the warranty of your new mattress.

Mattress for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain and Sleep Apnea on a tight budget.

Jamie writes:

Hello!

I saw that you have had many inquiries as to the best types of mattresses for those who are suffering from fibromyalgia and or other chronic pain illnesses. 

I'd like to reach out to you and ask you for some information. I suffer from fibromyalgia and reflect sympathetic dystrophy and back damage from a huge accident. 

My husband has back pain and has bad sleep apnea.

I am 5'6" side sleeper, and hubby is 5'11 back and side and weighs about 230. 

In our 30 years of marriage he has been tired the entire time he never feels restored or rested and what's sad is he works a very physically labor intensive job. 

We're on a very limited income with myself not being able to work and my poor sweet husband works 60 hour weeks or more, just to get by. 

So, when we moved recently, we downsized to save a little bit of money on our mattress.

We don't even have a box Spring or a bed frame, so basically we have a mattress on the floor, which is horrible, as you can imagine. 

When we moved, we had the option to buy a used mattress, which people have suggested for me. 

But, you don't know what you're getting you don't know if there's any bugs, and you don't know if it's bad or broken down.

Anyway, we are sleeping on an air mattress on the floor.

 

This feels like a million to one shot, but to me it was worth trying to just ask if you had any recommendations, advice or suggestions.

We would be so grateful for anything help, at all, you may be able to provide.

Jamie 

 

Hi Jamie,

Let's start from the bottom up.

To support a large man, you will need quality products...most important is the quality of the mattress.

The products that support the mattress, you can buy cheaply enough...so lets start with the foundation.

A steel bed frame is optional and not a necessary item.

A good foundation, (boxspring), you can get at Sam's Club or Costco at the lowest price I've seen anywhere...about $100 in queen.

They are simply made, but very strong.

You will need a foundation so that his sleep apnea can be addressed....which we will do first.

At the head of the foundation, (or under the back legs of the frame, if you opt to buy one), you'll add bed risers...like the ones shown in this link.

https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=xBJ7bLQe&id=EC5DC47C535475AEAE46F58123517D57294DFD40&thid=OIP.xBJ7bLQegLbdBUO97COw9wEsEs&q=bed+risers&simid=608009028205479297&selectedIndex=8&qpvt=bed+risers&ajaxhist=0

bed risers - Bing www.bing.com Bing is a search engine that brings together the best of search and people in your social networks to help you spend less time searching and more time doing.

For a queen size, you should use 3...and you'll need 4 if the bed is a king.

Adding these to the head of the bed will give the mattress a tilt. You won't even notice to lay on, but he will breathe easier with them.

These are available on-line and at stores like Big Lots, Target and Walmart.

 

When it comes to the mattress, an individually pocketed coil unit will contour to the body and maintain the spine's natural alignment.

You'd be amazed at how well this relieves back pain.

There are many brands that off this type of coil unit, but it's also important to buy a mattress with NO Memory Foam in it.

Memory foam is the worst upholstery material available...specifically designed to require frequent replacing.

 

When you're on a tight budget, it's important that you don't waste the money you have. Memory foam is just that...a complete waste of money.

Unfortunately, most mattresses have memory foam in them...especially the name brands. So, you will need to avoid those.

 

My best mattress may not be in your budget, but will last a very long time...making it the least expensive when averaged over the many years you will have it.

That will be the Natura of Canada Greenspring Plush Eurotop mattress...shown here, at the top of the page:

Both mattresses are upholstered with natural latex. Latex is and has been thee best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Latex is extremely comfortable, sleeps cool, and lasts for decades.

Both mattresses are very comfortable and provide excellent support.

And, there's no memory foam in either of them.

Simmons Beautyrest Mattresses in Canada.

Debbie writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I am hoping you can help me find a mattress

A few yrs ago we stayed @ black bear casino and all my husband could talk about was their beds and how well he slept with no aches or pains.  

Since Father's Day is coming up, I thought I would give them a call..the lady I spoke with said the mattress was called a Simmons health smart beauty rest classic 650 super pillow top. 

I guess my question is are these still available and can you please tell me where I might find one.

My husband is kinda fluffy around the middle with severe sleep apnea.

For whatever reason this bed provided him with the best sleep he has had in many years.

I am hoping you can help me locate one of these mattresses or one very similar in Thunder Bay Ontario Canada.

Something locally or even close by in the USA would greatly be appreciated.  

Sincerely, Debbie

 

Hi Debbie,

You can find Simmons Beautyrest mattresses at any Simmons retailer in Canada.

Simmons Beautyrest mattresses are very comfortable, but not very durable.

The steel from which the coils are made, is not tempered. The upholstery is memory foam...neither wears well.

In Canada, there is a brand called, "Natura". Their Greenspring line is made like the Simmons Beautyrest...using the same type of coil system.

It's the individually pocketed coils of the Beautyrest that contour to your body and maintain the spine's natural alignment.

The Natura Greenspring supports in the same way.

The difference is that the coils are double tempered and far more durable.

Also, the upholstery is natural latex, which is much more resilient and durable than memory foam. 

Here is a link to that line, with the Liberty Plush Eurotop being the most comfortable in the line.

My wife and I are large people and it's what we sleep on at home.

Replace my Stearns & Foster Mattress or add a Latex Topper.

Jan writes:

Hello,
I talked to you earlier today. You were torn between recommending the Natura plush or ultra plush.  

I'm 5'7" 165,  husband is 6'2" 220. I have scoliosis and joint pain. My husband likes a softer mattress he has sleep apnea and I think we both snore a little.  

We both need relief on our pressure points. 
I am going to try a mattress topper with my Stearns and Foster coil mattress, you recommended the Talalay 2".   

Can you tell me what the difference is between the soft Dunlop and the Talalay. They both have IDL ratings of 14-19. Would the Dunlop not relieve pressure?  

Would Dunlop feel firm even though both have the same IDL?
Also, I forgot to ask you if we like our topper and decide we would like to replace our Stearns and Foster  mattress which mattress would you recommend that would work with the topper?
Thank you!
Jan

Hi Jan,

The Talalay process has a freezing step that the Dunlop process doesn't have. The particles are suspended in the Talalay and settle in the Dunlop.

The end result is a more supple feel for the Talalay and a more dense feel for the Dunlop.

For surface comfort and pressure point relief, the Soft Talalay is the best...2" is all you'll need.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/talalay-dunlop-latextoppers/

Latex Mattress Toppers - All Natural Talalay Latex Toppers ... themattressexpert.com Talalay Latex toppers are normally purchased as “Soft” for the purpose of softening a too firm mattress. However, both, the Vytex Dunlop & Talalay Latex Mattress ...

When you want to replace your mattress, with the idea of using the topper with the new mattress, I'd feel pretty comfortable with you choosing the Natura Greenspring Liberty in Plush.

As I told you over the phone, the latex is much more resilient that poly or memory foam, so the plush isn't likely to feel as soft as your husband would like.

Together...the plush and the topper will give him what he wants and also provide a little firmer support for your back.

These products are terrific for relieving pressure points and relaxing muscles for a deeper night's sleep. And the quality of latex means greater longevity than you can't get otherwise.

Latex Mattress Toppers - All Natural Talalay Latex Toppers ... themattressexpert.com Talalay Latex toppers are normally purchased as “Soft” for the purpose of softening a too firm mattress. However, both, the Vytex Dunlop & Talalay Latex Mattress ...

When you want to replace your mattress, with the idea of using the topper with the new mattress, I'd feel pretty comfortable with you choosing the Natura Greenspring Liberty in Plush.

As I told you over the phone, the latex is much more resilient that poly or memory foam, so the plush isn't likely to feel as soft as your husband would like.

Together...the plush and the topper will give him what he wants and also provide a little firmer support for your back.

These products are terrific for relieving pressure points and relaxing muscles for a deeper night's sleep. And the quality of latex means greater longevity than you can't get otherwise.

Severe Back Pain on a Sealy. Suggests Wolf Adrian Latex Hybrid Mattress for Support & Comfort.

Kathy writes:

Hi Pete,

My husband is 6" 216-225 & I am 5'3 195-210.

We both wake up with severe back pain and sides hurting... I know I need something to feel like I am being supported.

My husband and I are both side sleepers. I also have sleep apnea... I am thinking something firmer will support us more. Our mattress now says it is made by Sealy... It has latex foam 29%, spring unit, polyurethane foam 37%, polyester fiber 21%. Maybe this gives you an idea what we have now.. It is so uncomfortable.. With no support. I wake up with hands and arms numb, and with neck pain. It feel very soft so would a firmer topper help instead if the soft you suggested until we get a firmer mattress . I want a new mattress and sleep good in hotels, but I want what you suggest would be right. Do you deliver to Mississippi.

Hi Kathy,

You're right about what you need.

Unfortunately, a firm latex topper on a soft mattress is the opposite of what you need.

The support is supposed to be firm and the surface is supposed to be soft....not the other way around.

I realize it would be nice to get away with the cost of a topper for the time being, but you'd just be throwing good money after bad.

The least expensive way out of this, is with the Wolf Adrian mattress. The coil unit is very strong...strong enough to hold the two of you and provide excellent support.

It's already upholstered with latex, so it won't sag and latex resists body impressions.

The only reason for getting a latex topper, at that point, is if you wanted the surface to be softer.

What you have, can't be very old. You should be able to continue to use the boxspring from that mattress.

Hi Pete,

Sorry for so many questions.

I just need the mattress for 999? Not the mattress and foundation? Ours are about 3 years old... but we have had it in storage and moved several times. 

Do you delivery to Mississippi. Would you say this is as comfortable as a Hampton inn bed? 

Husband will divorce me if we buy another sorry mattress. Is this a two sided mattress and will last awhile?

Thanks, Kathy

 

Hi Kathy,

No divorce for you!

The mattress only is all you need. Your bxosprings are in like new condition.

This is a much higher quality mattress than what you have now. The coil unit is much stronger and only latex is used for the upholstery.

It has no poly foam to compress...which it does easily.

The Wolf Adrian is a very well made, one sided mattress, and will last you for many years.

Delivery to Mississippi, as well as the rest of the continental US, is free and there's no sales tax.

What you are sacrificing is a white glove delivery. It will arrive via FedEx. You will have to bring it in, unpack it and put it on your boxsprings.

If you can handle that, this mattress is one of the best buys on the market.

Here is a video on how that works.
