Orthopaedic Mattresses

An orthopaedic mattress is a firm mattress specifically designed to support the spine, joints and body while you sleep. The term orthopaedic refers to promoting healthy spinal alignment and reducing pressure on key areas such as the back, hips and shoulders. Most orthopaedic mattresses use memory foam, reflex foam, pocket sprung or open coil designs to provide firm support and evenly distribute body weight. They are recommended for people with back pain or joint pain, as they help relieve pressure points and encourage a healthy posture, giving you a more comfortable sleep and a better night’s rest.

Orthopaedic mattresses are available in a range of support tensions so you can choose the right feel for your body and sleeping position. The most common options are: Medium Firm – A balanced option that offers both comfort and support in equal measure, ideal for side sleepers or those who want a little cushioning with firm support. Firm – Provides strong support to promote healthy spinal alignment, helping to reduce pressure points and back pain. Extra Firm – Sometimes called “very firm” or “ortho firm”, this is the firmest tension, specifically designed for sleepers who need maximum support or prefer a firmer feel. Most orthopaedic mattresses are available across a full range of sizes, making it easier to find the right mattress for your needs and bed frame.

Orthopaedic mattresses are available in all standard UK sizes, so you can find the right fit for your bed frame and room. The range includes: Small Single (75 x 190 cm) – Perfect for children’s rooms or smaller spaces. Single (90 x 190 cm) – A popular choice for both kids and adults in compact bedrooms. Small Double (120 x 190 cm) – Ideal for one sleeper who wants more space, or cosy for two. Double (135 x 190 cm) – A classic size for couples and most bedrooms. King (150 x 200 cm) – Extra space for couples who want more comfort. Super King (180 x 200 cm) – Maximum room for a luxurious night’s sleep. Most orthopaedic mattresses come in medium firm, firm or extra firm options, giving you both the right size and the right support for a healthier sleeping posture.
