Hi Pete,
My wife and I are looking for a mattress that provides long term back pain relief. She has scoliosis and I have herniated discs. The salespeople at the stores have promised us that our pain would be relieved by the memory foam in the mattresses they recommend. Each mattress worked well for a few months. Then, our back pain returned worse than before. After finding your blog, we see that it’s the memory foam that’s been the problem with these mattresses. I find myself annoyed that these salespeople would lie about something so important as this. We’ve wasted a lot of money on these mattresses and can’t afford to waste any more. So, what we buy next will need to come with a money back guarantee. Is there a mattress that you can recommend for people who are a bit on the heavy side that will relieve our back pain for years instead of months? Is there a Memorial Day sale that will help us save some money? Thanks, Randy Hi Randy, To be fair to the salespeople you’ve encountered, their training consists solely on how to close a sale. They aren’t trained to know how the components of their mattresses work…or not, in your case. They simply parrot what they’re told. The key to long term back pain relief is a mattress with an individually pocketed coil system, which provides the firm, upward and contouring pushback support against your spine that will maintain its natural alignment. AND, a mattress that’s upholstered with anything but memory foam. It’s the sinking into the memory foam that negates the benefit for those coils. Pure, organic and hypoallergenic latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 + years. My recommendation is for the PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress in Medium Firm. This mattress has everything your body needs for long lasting back pain relief. It’s currently on sale and comes with a 100 night money back guarantee.

Latex for Less has the lowest prices on the highest quality latex toppers.
