What matress is the best for you?

Think about this: You spend 1/3 of your life in bed.  Doesn't it make sense investing in a decent mattress in order to maximize your quality of life? Many people spend a lot of money on a car they spend maybe an hour a day in and yet they skimp on their mattress.

I will be doing a thorough investigation into the latest technology and recommendations in mattresses in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for a detailed blog on my findings.

In the meanwhile, here are a few guidelines on what to look for in a mattress as it applies to spinal health...

You really can't go wrong with a firm mattress that has a pillow top cover.
Don't bother with the cheapest or most expensive mattresses. 
Don't bother with gimmick mattresses (memory foam, intelli-gel, sleep system, motorized)
Shop around for pricing and don't be afraid to 'haggle' - many stores have frequent sales.

Stay tuned.
