‘How to know if it is time to change your mattress? Suffering from sleepless nights- The problem is not with you but your mattress’

 

What is that one thing you double check before purchasing a premium mattress? Definitely, it is the lifespan. Most mattresses last for five to seven years, while spring mattresses can last up to even 10 years. A mattress with time and usage begins to wear out and its health begins to deteriorate, resulting in backache and disturbed sleep. It is then that a consumer understands that it is the right time to change and upgrade one’s mattress. In today’s era, spring mattresses dominate the market with their increased mattress life and their premium quality springs provide support to one’s body, enabling good health and good sleep

A spring mattress is a high-quality mattress featuring springs for added durability and the right level of firmness and comfort. These spring mattresses are well-known orthopedic mattresses providing the best support for the body with zero disturbance technology. They are best suited for side sleepers, stomach sleepers, back sleepers. In short, for all sleeping postures. If you struggle to get a good night’s sleep, it’s time to invest in a new mattress of premium quality.

● Ache and Pain are now friends: If you consistently wake up with aches and pains, it could be a sign that your mattress is not providing proper body support.
● 7-10 Year after-effects of a mattress: You’ve had your mattress for more than 7-10 years. Over time, mattresses can lose the body support and comfort they provide. If you’ve had your mattress for 7-10 years or more, it might be time to consider replacing it. Dust mites and dead cell growth on mattresses are hazardous to one’s health. These dust mites and dead body cells tend to get accumulated on one’s mattress due to repeated usage. Dust mite proteins can cause nasal congestion, watery eyes, and other allergic symptoms. Once dust mite allergens have settled into the fabric of your mattress or the stuffing material of your pillow, it can be difficult to get rid of them and hence, in such cases, it is advisable to keep your mattress in sunlight for long hours. Due to lack of sunlight within flats and houses nowadays and the difficulty of such a tedious task, investing in a new mattress seems like the most practical solution.
● Zero Disturbance sleep If you find that your partner’s movements disturb your sleep, it could be a sign that your mattress is not offering enough support or is past its prime. Hence, a spring mattress is recommended for zero disturbance and sound sleep.
● Worn-out spring and mattress surface: Often with time, the surface of your mattress is not smooth or straight anymore. It tends to get curvy due to a few defects found on the mattress surface. It is obvious that the mattress begins losing its shape and that the springs start wearing out. The springs begin loosening, which in turn affect the sponge and hence, the surface of your mattress is uncomfortable for the body. These factors can impact one’s health by not providing enough body support, indicating that it is time to change the mattress.
● Biological Factors: You’re not sleeping as well as you used to: If you are used to sleeping well on your current mattress but are now struggling to get a good night’s rest, it could be time to replace it with something more comfortable and premium. With time and age, one’s body has different requirements to cater to and, therefore, investing in a spring mattress would be the right move to yield some great health benefits.
● Body Damage Control: People with back problems are frequently recommended to use a firm mattress to help ease back discomfort. Modern research, however, suggests that a medium or medium-firm mattress may be beneficial for the back. A good mattress should be firm enough to support your complete body despite being soft enough to adapt to your curves and prevent pressure points. A Spine-Guard mattress, for example, employs cutting-edge memory foam to keep your spine properly aligned and to relieve strain on key body regions while sleeping.

A good quality mattress can make a big difference in your sleep quality and can impact one’s overall health. One doesn’t have to suffer tiresome and sleepless nights each day due to a mattress.
