Dr. Grace Walker takes a holistic approach to physical therapy. Through her Amazon best selling book “Bye-Bye Back Pain: 9 Holistic Solutions for Relief from Sciatica, Lumbago, Slipped Disc, and Backache Dr. Grace Walker draws upon her career as a physical therapist to help individuals find pain relief. Many things can be done to reduce pain, including using anti-inflammatory herbs and making lifestyle changes. In addition, switching to a different mattress can help.
For many people, their mattress does not place their spine in proper alignment while they sleep. As a result, the ligaments and muscles in their back do not get the chance for optimum recovery overnight, resulting in pain the following day. Therefore, people should avoid a mattress that is either too soft or too hard.
The right level of firmness in a mattress depends on each individual sleeper’s weight and build. For instance, a person with wider hips often benefits from a slightly less firm mattress. For those who are unsure, a medium-firm mattress may make a good starting point. One study found that people who experience lower back pain are more likely to report a better experience with a medium-firm mattress than a firm mattress. Fortunately, many manufacturers offer trial periods, so a mattress can be tested and returned if it doesn’t work out.
