Mattress Buying Guide for Different Sleeping Positions
Are you still worrying about how to sleep well? If so, you should know that it is related to the choice of mattress in your bedroom. Except for the office, your bedroom is a space where you spend the longest time, surely everything in it should make you feel comfortable, relaxed, and suitable for you. Experts agree that the mattress is one of the most important factors for us to get good sleep, but many people ignore it and continue to sleep on mattresses that are not suitable for them. Therefore, for your good night's sleep, we will show you in detail how to choose the best mattress according to different sleeping positions.
Get to Know Your Sleep Position:
We may know that most people always toss and turn between different positions when sleeping, but everyone has their preferred sleeping position. If you still don’t know your sleeping position, we suggest you pay careful attention and find out your favorite sleeping position. This can help you choose the best mattress. Generally speaking, there are three common types of sleepers:
The Best Mattress for Side Sleepers
If you are a side sleeper, there will be sharp pressure points on your shoulders and hips. So you need a soft mattress to provide good pressure relief for your hips and shoulders. But on a mattress that is too soft, the rest of your spine cannot stay in line with these points.
Therefore, side sleepers are most suitable for choosing medium-soft to medium-firm mattresses. Our Novilla Bliss Memory Foam Mattress is made from gel-infused memory foam and its firmness level is 5 out of 10, which is the best choice for side sleepers.
The Best Mattress for Stomach Sleepers
If you are a stomach sleeper, the last thing you may want is a memory foam mattress. Because it will make you feel suffocated when lying face-down on the mattress!
In addition, if you sleep on your stomach, it will put more pressure on the lumbar spine. You need to choose a firmer mattress, which will provide the best support and raise your hips in line with your shoulders. But this is not to make you choose a mattress that is as hard as a wooden board. The most important thing is to choose a mattress that has both a super support foundation and a thin comfort layer so that it can support you and make you feel comfortable.
Therefore, people who sleep on their stomachs are best to choose an innerspring mattress or a hybrid mattress. According to the research, the average firmness level preferred by stomach sleepers is between 5~7 out of 10 points. Regarding our products, the Vitality hybrid mattress, its firmness level falls within this range, and it will be your best choice to provide you with deep comfort and physical support.
The Best Mattress for Back Sleepers
If you are a back sleeper, we think that a medium-firm mattress is your best choice. Because if the mattress is too firm, you will feel tension in your shoulders and lower back. But if the mattress is too soft, your hips may sink and fail to align with your shoulders, causing your back pain.
Therefore, the mattress chosen by these sleepers should provide enough support to keep the spine aligned, while also being moderately soft to ease the lower back, hips, and shoulders.
According to the survey, people who sleep on their backs need a mattress with a firmness level in the range of 5.5~7. Why is this range most suitable for people lying on their backs? Because it can lift their hips and keep their spines in a straight line, which helps alleviate muscle tension and back pain.
And our Novilla Serenity Mattress is suitable for back sleepers. Its firmness level is 6.5 out of ten, which is generally regarded as the industry standard for medium firmness.
But in any case, choosing a mattress is up to your personal preference. If you are satisfied with your current mattress, you do not need to repurchase it. However, if you have trouble sleeping and are looking for a new mattress, you can pay attention to your sleeping position, and you may find the mattress that suits you best!
