Take the 60-second finder →What to look for in a mattress for back pain
Aim for medium-firm to firm support that keeps your spine level: too soft and your hips sink, too hard and your shoulders take the pressure. Orthopaedic spring systems or high-density foam give that steady base; a thin comfort layer stops it feeling like a board. Zoned and edge-to-edge support helps you keep a neutral spine right across the bed.
How the range is arranged
Firm first, firmest last. Memory Ortho and Memory Plus pair orthopaedic Bonnell springs with a cushioned top; Percy adds edge-to-edge support; Hycare Ortho and Forrest lean firmer; The Rock is extra-firm reflex foam for those who need the most support.
A mattress isn't a medical device. If pain persists, please see your GP, but the right support can make a real difference to how your mornings feel.

Is a firm mattress always best for a bad back?
No. Medium-firm suits most people: you want support with enough give to cushion your hips and shoulders. Our Memory Ortho is the popular middle ground; The Rock is there if you need it firmer.
How long until a new mattress helps?
Most people need two to four weeks to adjust, as your body gets used to sleeping in better alignment. Natural fillings also settle slightly over the first few weeks.
Which is best if I sleep on my side with back pain?
Choose medium-firm with a deeper comfort layer, such as Memory Ortho or Memory Plus, so your shoulder and hip can sink in while your waist stays supported. See best mattress for your sleep position.
