Mattress help for Shoulder injury

Hi Nessie,

We don’t recommend pillow top mattresses for the simple reason that once the pillow top compresses there's no way to remove or replace it. This leaves the entire mattress pretty much useless.

We always recommend removable replaceable toppers for this very reason, and all of the contemporary mattresses come with a removable matching topper. I would need to know your weight /height to provide an accurate recommendation Nessie.

If you have shoulder issues then a mattress that has some sink as a side sleeper is preferable with a medium feel in the upholstery. Please look at our Origins Pocket 1500 and the Artisan Naturals which are both ideal for side sleepers as a starting point.

If you are looking at contemporary mattresses then you won’t find one with firm edge support. The reason for this is that latex and foam mattresses provide a consistent level of support and comfort from the centre to the edge. Adding firm foam around the perimeter introduces more materials that can over time start to degrade or settle at a different rate to the main foam/latex. This can lead to issues with the settlement.

I hope this helps,
