Soft Bed Or Hard Bed To Alleviate Back Pain?
June 19, 2008 1:13 pm HealthAn age old question with those that suffer back ache, either chronic or temporary, is what kind of bed is best, soft or hard. It would be wonderful if there was an easy answer but, unfortunately, there isn’t. In recent study by Denmark’s Funen Back Center to ascertain which mattress, hard or soft, was better for people who suffer lower back pain the result was completely mixed. Some participants who were given the soft mattress to sleep on were pleased while others were very uncomfortable. On the other hand, of those that were given hard a mattress to sleep on some responded well and others did not. The conclusion, therefore, seems to be use whatever mattress is most comfortable for you. Often this means having to try several out before making a final choice.
