Best mattress for siatica in terms of comfort and support

Hi

Thank you for reaching out to us about finding a mattress suitable for someone suffering from sciatica.

We recognize that sciatica can lead to a range of discomfort, from persistent dull aches to sensations of tingling and numbness, often resulting from nerve compression.

We recognize how crucial it is to find the perfect mattress that can help relieve your pain and ensure a restful night's sleep. Additionally, since you're a side sleeper, we recommend trying a pillow between your legs, as this may provide added comfort and support.

When choosing a new mattress however it is also important that you not only receive the correct level of support but also the correct level of comfort.   Support is provided by the internal spring unit and is based upon heights and weights whereas comfort is provided by the upholstery fillings which atop the spring unit and is usually dictated by your sleeping positions.    At your body weights, we would recommend a medium level of support and this would be the case whichever of our mattresses you chose.   It used to be advised that if you suffered from back issues that you would require a firm mattress from a comfort point of view but this is not the case.   It is vital that you receive the correct level of support and the correct level of comfort.    As you are side sleepers, we would also recommend a medium level of comfort provided by the upholstery fillings as this will providing cushioning for your shoulders and hips.

There are a number of other factors which need to be taken into consideration and with this in mind, it would be useful for us to have a chat over the telephone so that we can ensure that we recommend the correct mattress for you both.    Please telephone the Office on 0161 437 4419.

Kind regards Julie Collier
