Time to Spring for a New Mattress
Monday, April 18, 2016
Even with the best mattresses, there comes a time to replace it. While common wisdom says you need to replace your mattress every 10 years due to wear and tear, there may be signs your mattress and you need to part ways even earlier.
Is it time to replace your good, old mattress?
1. Waking up is painful – if you’re waking up to new pains in your back and lower back, your mattress may not be supporting you right through the night.
2. Your mattress became frazzled, lumpy, or saggy.
3. Sneezing and coughs – beds attract household allergens, and unless you’ve upgraded to a latex or one of the best memory foam mattresses, your bed may be clinging on to more and more of them.
4. Sleeping away from home seems appealing – sleeping away from home can be tough, especially in unfamiliar surroundings with unfamiliar sounds. So if you find that you get better night’s sleep away from your own mattress, it may be time to consider why.
5. Change with age – the older you get, the firmer your mattress may need to be to combat back pain. On top of that, the best mattress for you may change every 7 to 8 years after the age of 40. Of course, how firm can depend on whether you sleep on your back or on your side.
