You can’t put a price on a good night’s sleep

How was your sleep last night? If your answer is “not great” then maybe it’s time to take a look at a new mattress or “sleeping experience” such as a lift-style adjustable foundation. With so many available options, it can often be overwhelming trying to decide. As a sleep specialist, one of the first questions I ask is “who is going to be sleeping on the mattress, and do they have any ailments or issues such as snoring?” Then we can start to explore in more detail to help you get the best night’s sleep possible:

How about your sleeping position?

Because most of us spend the majority of our time in one position, it’s important to know if that’s front, back or side. Sleeping position is the first thing you keep in mind when determining the firmness of your mattress. For example if you are a back sleeper you may need a firmer mattress to contour to your body so you don’t wake up with a sore back. A side sleeper like myself can go with a more plush sleeping surface.

Do you prefer springs or foam?   

A foam mattress gives the most support and hits every pressure point, but some people don’t like the feel or lack of bounce or movement. The more coils in a mattress the more support it will provide and most coil mattresses are now pocket coils which are individually wrapped coils to reduce the amount of motion transfer when more than one person is sleeping on it.

Pillows work with your mattress.

Giving your head, neck and shoulders the support they need is an important part of a good night’s sleep. That’s why choosing the right type, weight and quality of the fill, the size of the pillow and the fabric are absolutely key. Of course, your sleeping position also influences your choice in pillow. For example, side sleepers need a thicker, more firm pillow while stomach sleepers may need a softer pillow. 

We offer a wide range of Serta mattresses and lifestyle bases.
