Chronic pain affects the sleep quality. For a few years, the scientists and doctors have studied that mattress is actually the real villain that robs people of their rest. Wrong mattresses cause bad back to occur, leading to a painful day and an impatient night. 

As far as choosing the right mattress for your bed is concerned, don’t go for the hard ones. According to the recent studies, mattresses that are medium-firm is the best one to improve the quality of sleep for people who are suffering from extensive back pain, which means the firmer is no longer considered to be a better option. 

There were many manufacturers that increased quantity of the coil springs in the orthopedic mattresses for providing more support to the back. Yet the extra-firm ones caused worse quality of sleep. Those who slept on the hard one, switching to the medium-firm ones provided better sleep. It also reduced their back pain to a great extent. 

Since medium firmness happens to be a vague term, it is sensible to test the various mattresses for the comfort. Then again since the market of cotton spring coil mattress is partly functioning on the concept that the firmer is much better, some new materials of mattresses that have become popular in last few years are on their way to go. Advanced and latex air mattresses and the new foam are popular for a particular reason. The studies have suggested that they offer great sleep at night and reduced back pain in the lower part of the body. 

The air mattresses are not more used for campaigning. Air-column support of the inflatable mattress features a makeover in form of Sleep Number. The Sleep Number enables user to modify the sturdiness of mattress by fine-tuning the air flow, offering counter pressure to the weight of the body. A study suggested that people who started using Sleep Number from the spring mattresses had a decreased neck and back ache, and improved quality of sleep. 

Memory foam basically is used in the mattresses to match the shape of the body. It enables a body to be in its normal shape and position. The most famous company of memory foam is Dunlop, claims that it can adjust to all movement of a human body & distribute the body weight. 

Those who prefer using natural materials can use latex-core based mattresses as a substitute to the foam mattresses. The mattresses made up of latex-core organic materials give the same kind of support to the synthetic foam ones. A study proved that people who switched to mattresses that were made up of latex and foam had improved sleep quality and back pain decreased over time. 

So, a lot of studies have shown that new generation mattresses have improved the sleep quality a lot and reduced back pain to a great extent.
