Which mattress for sore hips?
Hi,.
I have arthritis in both hips and although it is not severe I do wake every morning and sometimes during the night with painful hips and back.
A new mattress is well overdue and I am now confused as to what is the best type for my needs.
I am 5 ft 9 and 11 stone and my husband is 6ft and 12 and a half stone.
Hi Gillian,
Thanks for your question.
At your body weights you would both be matched with a Medium spring tension to get the right level of 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 arthritis of any severity you generally want some sort of pressure relief.
Have a look at our Artisan Naturals, which has a medium upholstery providing a slight sink in sensation into the top layer.
Alternatively, have a look at our Artisan Luxury, which has our softest upholstery giving that luxurious sink in sensation in that top layer.
I hope this helps but if you have any further queries please don’t hesitate to contact our office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind Regards, Lee.
