Back Ache And Sleepless Nights Gone Forever

My wife and I seemed to have a real problem in bed. No, no - not anything like that. Apparently after spending many hours with me she complained of feeling stiff. Most particularly her back, and often this would wake her up. Being the sort of caring and supportive wife she is every time she woke up she helpfully kneed me in the small of the back to wake me up to know that she couldn’t sleep. We decided that her stiff, achy back was down to our rather sad and forlorn mattress.

The mattress didn’t appear too bad, but noticeably after a few years the springs had lost some of their springiness (happens to us all eventually), so I decided to see what I could do. I noticed that sticking a load of towels and bedding below the centre of the mattress would help add support, but it didn’t seem to have much effect at all. We also tried sticking pillows down the bed for her to lie on, but that just made her feel worse. There was nothing to it - we needed a brand new mattress.

I had a look around online and in the stores at new mattresses, especially those suitable for people with wives - sorry, I mean bad backs. I discovered that there’s a variety of mattress on the market which is manufactured from a material invented by NASA. I knew that Teflon was developed by NASA, but couldn’t see how sleeping on a non-stick frying pan would help. Nonetheless, it turned out that the mattress in question was known as a Tempur mattress.

Apparently these mattresses react to the heat of your body, softening wherever the temperature is and moulding to match up with the shape of your body. The material is then able to provide cushioned support to the whole of your body in a more natural position, improving the posture of your spine, reducing back pain and improving sleep quality.|It seemed that these mattresses are made from a unique material which responds to the heat of your body. When you lie on one of these mattresses your body warms the fabric up, softening it so that it moulds to form contoured support that assists you to lie in a more natural position, evenly supported for better back posture, and improving sleep quality. It sounded ideal.}

I was completely convinced, and even if it hadn’t been for my wife's bad back I’d have been pretty persuaded for myself too. After all, who wouldn’t like to enjoy improved sleep? I had been browsing a company’s web page that seemed to offer everything I could want - a large range of sizes and styles, but just as I was about to pay I noticed that they were located in the North-Midlands area. Nonetheless, I then noticed that they were offering free postage and packing, and so needing no more persuasion, released the moths from my wallet and paid.

A few days afterward the mattress was delivered to my door, and I immediately unpacked it and started prodding it. It was definitely a very strange material, but I couldn’t really see how it would provide support. Nonetheless, I laid it on the bed and looked at it. Hmm. I laid down on it, and right away I could understand what the problem had been. It’s only when your body touched the mattress and it begins to warm up that it starts to become softer, and conform. It was only ten in the morning but I felt like I could have a doze there and then!

Obviously with anything like this you need to give it time to genuinely test it, but within a week it was more than apparent that the Tempur mattress was making a big difference. My wife felt that her back was ten times more comfortable, and in the mornings she was no longer hobbling about in the vein of a ninety year old (after all, she’s just 89!) In fact, we both felt more at ease plus we were both sleeping much better.

The only thing that keeps me awake now is the thought that I very nearly didn’t buy this mattress. I don’t know how they manage to deliver such large heavy items for free, but not only do they have one of the widest ranges I’ve found anywhere, they delivered to my door in amazingly quick time. I’d certainly recommend them - you’ll sleep better for it!
