The Mattress Matters

Getting a good night's sleep is important to both your health and general well being. Making sure that you have a comfortable mattress to sleep on should be of paramount importance to you.

Futons have come a long way towards being very comfortable to sleep on. A futon mattress used to be little more than thick padding covered in fabric. Now the futon mattresses are made to be very comfortable and many have inner coil mattresses that result in more back support and a very restful sleep. If you opt for a foam-padded mattress instead of an innerspring for your futon, invest in an 8-inch thickness for the foam. This will hold up to frequent use and will deliver the most comfort possible.

As far as mattresses for beds; you can opt for the foam that will support your body from head to toe or a more traditional innerspring mattress. There is also a combination of the two, where an innerspring mattress is combined with memory foam. This results in a mattress that will almost completely stop energy transference, meaning if one person is a tossing and turning sleeper, the other person won't get jostled around. This type of mattress is also perfect for children. When the child is young use the firm inner spring mattress side and as they grow, flip the mattress over and use the memory foam side to allow your child's bed to conform to the unique contours of his or her body and offer 100% support while keeping their spine in perfect alignment as they grow.
