If you wake up in the morning and feel tired, then your mattress is probably calling for a change!
The reasons that cause fatigue, insomnia and any other problems sleep there may be many. One of them might be your bed mattress.
Since, if nothing else, the mattress should provide us with a truly restful sleep, let’s look at 5 signs that testify that it’s time to replace it with a new one. Don’t forget that good quality sleep is a necessary element for a better quality of life overall.
1. Your bed mattress is old
We regret to inform you that no mattress is designed to last forever. The lifespan of each mattress, of course, depends on many factors, such as the manufacturer and its type. In general, if a mattress has passed the 8-10 year mark, it is important to replace it. Don’t wait for an obvious problem to change it. The age of the mattress alone is sufficient.
2. You suffer from orthopedic problems
Neck and spine problems are among the most common effects of poor sleep, mainly due to spinal misalignment. For his part, this may be due to the position in which we sleep, but it may also be to blame for the type of mattress we use.
In the latter case, the solution is provided by orthopedic mattresses, which provide the appropriate support so that the spine remains in place.
3. Have you gained or lost weight?
The change in your body weight often affects the quality of your sleep. If you’ve gained weight, a mattress that’s too soft will result in your spine not being adequately supported. On the other hand, if you have lost weight, a hard orthopedic mattress is definitely not for you. So, be sure to ask for some suggestions from the manager of the store you will visit, so that you can choose the one that will best meet your new needs.
4. Do you sleep on your back?
Welcome to the club! This sleeping position, in addition to being your favorite, is also the warmest. But come on, a wrong bed mattress is capable of distorting your spine, causing chronic pain.
According to ow.gr, the best mattress for you who sleeps on your back is neither too hard (because you will suffer from pressure on the pelvis and knees), nor too soft (because the spine will not be properly supported).
5. Maybe your bed mattress is harboring bacteria
Let’s face it: Most of us tend to focus on cleanliness only when we see something dirty, so we ignore the existence of invisible microorganisms in our bed. The mattress, however, is an excellent nest for bacteria and mites, which even if they do not transmit diseases, often cause us allergies and respiratory problems. Cleaning can only limit the problem, so you better get a new mattress.
