Hi there,
Thank you for your question.
Your body weight dictates that you will need to opt for a firm spring tension for support.
| Bodyweight | Spring tension |
|---|---|
| Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kg | Medium (1.4mm) |
| 16 Stone / 101kg Upwards | Firm (1.6mm) |
| Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call) | Soft (1.2mm) |
With the aches and pains you are experiencing we would recommend looking at our medium feel models.
The Origins Pocket 1500 is our best selling made in the UK man made and natural fibre mattress. Offering a quality 1500 pocket-spring unit and layers of fillings for a medium overall feeling. Unbeatable value given its quality. Costing £620.00 for a King Size mattress.

You would need to opt for the 2000 spring count which is the firm tension that you require for support.
The Artisan Naturals is our most popular, unbeatable model with 85% natural fibres. Containing a huge GSM of fillings, including wool and mohair, on a Calico Pocket spring unit.
