What mattress do you sleep on? Why?




In 1993, I had a cliff diving accident, a kind of dumb one my friends say, and I'll agree with that. It broke one of my vertebrae and messed up a few of my disks. I'd like to rewind those 2 seconds of my life, like they do on AFV : )That's not me in the video by the way, but it's a pretty close reenactment, uncanny really. I was canoing, the cliff was about the same size, and I came up kind of slow and worried my friends, just like in this video.

I recovered very well and lived about 10 years pain free and with no restrictions. Then, slowly, it began to bother me. It started to interfere with my sleep because I couldn't get comfortable on my old innerspring mattress.

Then I did some research and bought a memory foam mattress and it really worked. I could tell that the mattress actually did "contour to the shape of my body." It wasn't just marketing hype. I was able to sleep again, and my pain went away, although I still don't do any heavy lifting, and I hike / walk instead of jog now.

I liked the bed so much, I started an online store in 2004 so I could help others find a good memory foam mattress. I'm glad to say that we've been able to help others with similar problems, some have back injuries like mine from an accident. One woman had a horse kick her. One of our customers had an auto accident. But many other people didn't have any back problem other than their old mattress. Like a customer of mine said just the other day, "I just thought you were supposed to wake up stiff and achy."

In my experience, and the experience of my customers, memory foam mattresses can be a tremendous help in getting back pain relief.

Hi;
