What is an orthopaedic mattress?
Orthopaedic is a medical term. It relates to the field of orthopaedics,
which looks specifically at the function of the spine and other joints.
Orthopaedic specialists help to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal
issues that affect the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles.
Orthopaedic mattresses are commonly used by people who suffer
from back problems. However, over the years, orthopaedic mattresses
have been designed to become more than just a solution to back pain.

Latex Foam
An orthopedic mattress made of latex like this one, is suitable for people looking for more firm and rigid support, and who are possibly suffering from arthritis or neck pain. The firmness is the same over the whole mattress and does not provide much cushioning or softness. This means more rigid support for the neck, back, and hips, and will also relieve back pain to some extent.

What Are The Benefit Of An Orthopaedic Mattress?
Maximum support: An orthopedic mattress' firm surface provides optimal push-back for the ideal resting position. This will help you wake up feeling refreshed by reducing tossing and turning.
Even weight distribution: An orthopaedic mattress distributes your body weight evenly to avoid pressure points from forming, especially in your neck, back, and hips.
Reduced aches and pains: By providing you with the correct support an Orthopaedic Mattress distributes your body weight evenly. This reduces pressure points offering temporary positional relief from your aches and pains. Combined with an adjustable bed, this reduces any pressure from building on any specific areas of pain.
Long-lasting: Although this is not a direct health benefit, orthopedic mattresses are long-lasting meaning you won’t have to spend extra bucks purchasing additional orthopedic bedding such as mattress covers and pads.
