Suffering from back pain? Then it's worth considering whether your bed is making things worse. The wrong kind of mattress can cause your spine to lose its natural alignment, and strain the back muscles that support it. So if you're waking up in the morning feeling unrested, in discomfort or even experiencing pain, it's probably time to consider buying a new one.
For most people, simply replacing an old saggy mattress and getting a taut new one will make a big difference. But you'll get the best results by considering the level of firmness that will suit you best.
