 Multiple factors play a pivotal role in getting a good night’s sleep. Some of them are eating nutritious food at the right time, cutting down on using of phone or watching TV before bedtime, and the ambience where you sleep. The noise disturbance also plays a decisive role in getting better sleep. Similarly, the mattress you sleep on is something you have to ascertain is the right pick for you if you aim for better sleep.

There are various mattress options available in the market for you to decide. E.g. a medium-firm mattress, one with adjustable firmness that promotes comfort, proper spinal alignment, and quality sleep. Sleep experts suggest that the surface you sleep on makes a big difference in providing comfort if you have frequent body aches and back pain. People who slept on memory foam mattresses of medium firmness experienced a decline in pain and fell asleep faster.

Latex foam mattress puts less pressure on the body and prevents the engulfing feeling you get with memory foam. It helps sleepers stay at a comfortable temperature and sleeping position compared to the memory foam mattress.

 Inner Spring mattresses are also available in various support options and are usually hybrid mattresses able to serve multiple functions. They can be as soft or firm as needed. However, the general experience focuses on either uniform or focused support.

 If you are prone to backaches or currently dealing with backache and body aches in general, now is the right time to get an orthopaedic mattress. Orthopaedic mattresses are mattresses that help correct posture and address medical ailments.

With these mattress options and much more available, you can select and get the benefits of good sleep like


 Strengthening your heart

The risk of developing heart disease is high when sleep quality and duration is low.

 

Improved concentration and productivity

Sleep deprivation can negatively affect cognition, concentration, productivity, and performance.
