DRESSED SINGLE MATTRESS EMBROIDERED 160/190cm

Description

The term “orthopedics” refers to the branch of medicine that focuses on the skeletal system and related structures, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
An orthopedic mattress is a mattress that has been designed to take care of your body. Particular attention is paid to supporting your spine and back muscles, as well as to the distribution of body weight across the entire mattress and to temperature regulation. It is suitable for all sleepers but is generally recommended for people who suffer from back pain, who have had surgery, or for those who have a tendency to sleep in odd positions. Indeed, the orthopedic mattress adapts to your body shape and your movements, it will significantly reduce pain when waking up or unexpected awakenings in the night, due to uncontrolled agitation.
Technically, an orthopedic mattress can be made of foam (polyurethane or memory foam), latex or pocket springs. Very often, orthopedic mattresses combine several materials (foam + latex, foam + springs) for a high quality result.
Choosing the right orthopedic mattress
When shopping for an orthopedic mattress, there are a few essential points to check. They will of course depend on each person’s body shape, but the quality of your sleep on this type of mattress will depend on these criteria.

• The density
As a general rule, we recommend opting for a firm mattress. And the heavier you are, the higher the density will need to be. Depending on the material you choose, the density varies. For memory foam, a minimum density of 55kg/m3 is recommended. For latex, the quality of the latex will take precedence (100% natural, synthetic) but a density greater than 75kg/m3 will be appreciable. Finally, for pocket spring mattresses, we will favor a high number of springs.

• Home
Soft, enveloping, it is the quality of the surface of your mattress which defines the comfort you will experience when lying on it. For people with back pain, choose a soft welcome to relieve your back.

• Support areas
This is often the main specificity of pocket spring mattresses, but most orthopedic mattresses now offer these comfort zones. On your mattress, several support zones, under the neck, under the back, under the legs, allow you to distribute the sleeper’s weight and take care of each part of the body independently.

• Ventilation
Whether for the health of the mattress or for yours, the mattress material must be ventilated. This will prevent you from waking up in the middle of the night because the temperature is too high and will guarantee the healthy appearance of your mattress by avoiding mold or bacteria. Orthopedic mattresses are generally well ventilated and they are treated to be anti-allergenic.

• Temperature regulation
Temperature regulation refers to a mattress’s ability to shed excess heat or, conversely, keep you warm when it’s colder. Hot sleepers should pay particular attention to this component, as it can make a noticeable difference in keeping you cool and comfortable throughout the night. Generally, a firmer mattress tends to allow more airflow, while a more conforming mattress may be more likely to trap heat, especially if it uses memory foam and does not include any engineered features. for cooling.

• Firmness level
A suitable orthopedic mattress provides an ideal combination of cradle and support. If a mattress is too firm, it could contribute to pressure points and make it difficult to maintain proper spinal alignment, which could cause your muscles to become strained. A mattress that is too soft will not provide enough support, which could put more strain on your lower back.
While orthopedic mattresses are often slightly firmer, the ideal firmness level will depend on the sleeper’s body type and sleeping position. Sleepers who weigh less generally need a softer model to benefit from contouring, while heavier individuals generally need a firmer option for sufficient lumbar support.

• Suspension
The suspension or if you want, the design material of your mattress is one of the important criteria in its choice. The level of safety and comfort guaranteed by it will in fact depend on this characteristic. Furthermore, the choice of suspension will be made according to your expectations and needs because there are 3 types on the market. You have orthopedic spring, latex and foam mattresses; each of these suspensions having its strong points and weak points.
• Orthopedic latex mattresses have a good reputation for being firm and very comfortable. They are generally equipped with cells which ensure good durability, as well as good ventilation. This type of mattress is suitable for all age groups.
• Orthopedic mattresses with spring suspension also offer perfect ventilation and optimal comfort. However, they tend to quickly deform, which can cause back problems over time.
• Finally, orthopedic foam mattresses, just like the previous ones, have the advantage of softness, firmness and comfort. However, their performance will quickly be reduced in periods of high heat and high humidity: we should therefore avoid installing them in rooms exposed to humidity and heat.
When purchasing your orthopedic mattress, you can also purchase a mattress pad to benefit from even more optimized restorative sleep. Indeed, these are excellent complements to your mattresses, they provide more height which is very important for people who suffer from joint and back pain.
