How does my sleep position affect the mattress I should buy?

The way you sleep at night can affect which mattress you should buy. If you sleep on you stomach or back, you may prefer a firmer mattress to give you the most support for you back and body.

If you sleep on your side, you may prefer a softer mattress so that you have extra cushion and pressure relief for your shoulders and hips. Traditional mattresses tend to be firmer and better for stomach and back sleepers.

Euro-top and pillow-top mattresses are more suitable for side sleepers as they have that extra cushion for your side, but they are also good all around mattresses for all sleeping positions if you toss and turn at night. Memory foam mattresses are also good for all sleeping positions since they are great at relieving pressure from your whole body.

Try out different mattresses in a store in the positions that you regularly sleep in to get the best idea of which mattress is best for you!
