On which surface is it more beneficial for the back to sleep, on a soft or on a hard?

The spine has physiological curves. When sleeping on a hard surface, the load on the spine is uneven, which can cause functional disorders, in particular, deterioration of blood circulation. Sleeping on an excessively soft surface, due to the uneven weight of different parts of the body, will cause curvature of the spine, which is also not encouraging. Therefore, the sleeping surface is moderately soft to maintain the physiological curves of the spine.

Choose the right mattress firmness based on your weight and personal preferences.

People under 60 kg should prefer mattresses with a firmness of moderate-low to moderate-high

From 60 up to 100 kg it is best to choose a harder mattress - from medium to medium-high

From 100 kg - from medium to high

The main thing is that your body does not fall into the mattress, or vice versa , did not lie on the hillock. It is important to maintain the anatomically correct position of the spine.

I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the rating of soft and hard mattresses

If you are under 60 years old, you are generally healthy and do not have problems with the spine, then it is better to choose a mattress of moderate or medium firmness. It "forces" the spine to take the correct position, improves posture, and prevents scoliosis. A lot depends on the correct posture - both normal blood circulation and the work of internal organs.

If you are over 60 years old, a soft mattress is the best choice. This is connected not only with the health of the back, but also with other features of the body of an older person.

Well, if you have back problems, then you need to buy a mattress only after consulting a doctor. The firmness of the mattress will depend on your medical condition. For scoliosis, a hard mattress is recommended, and for a hernia, on the contrary, a soft one. Self-medication is not allowed here.

It depends on who. Men are advised to sleep on a hard surface, while such austerities are not recommended for women.

For the back itself, the sellers of orthopedic mattresses will convince you that it is more beneficial to sleep on their mattresses.

If you spread your back on the spine and muscles, then for the spine it is better to sleep on a straight surface (it may not be very soft), but for the muscles a hard surface causes discomfort and pain.

If we speak from a position of rest during sleep, it is better sleeping on such a surface so that sleep brings rest to the mind and body.

And again, men are not recommended a lot of comfort, men are recommended asceticism. Otherwise, he becomes too soft and not masculine.
