Thin orthopedic mattresses

Traditional orthopedic mattresses have long gained popularity among consumers. Today the old Soviet mattresses have been ousted from all beds in the country and replaced with orthopedic ones. However, these mattresses have a number of disadvantages: high price, lack of compactness and inconvenience in transportation (such a mattress cannot be rolled up, removed, transferred from one room to another). Thin orthopedic mattresses are very popular today.

Thin orthopedic mattresses are products up to 10 cm high with various fillings.

They have a number of advantages over their predecessors (traditional thick orthopedic mattresses), namely:

• affordable price (the cost of a thin orthopedic mattress is much lower than that of traditional thick products);
• lightness and compactness;
• ease of care (it is enough to periodically knock out the mattress itself from dust, and wash the cover);
• the fillers of such a product contain natural ingredients that will not cause an allergic reaction in a sleeping person;
• thanks to a large selection of sizes, you can choose a suitable option, taking into account the dimensions of the bed (you can also make a thin orthopedic mattress for a sofa or a bed of a non-standard shape to order);
• makes any sleeping place more comfortable.

All sofas consist of two or more parts, on the folds of which sufficiently wide gaps gradually appear, and the filler gets lost. Such a sleeping place cannot be called comfortable anymore, and guests who are put to sleep on such a sofa will wake up tired in the morning. However, the situation can change if the house has thin orthopedic mattress - it just needs to be laid on top of the sofa and secured. The bed is leveled, all bumps and dents disappear, and guests feel great in the morning.

However, it is worth considering the disadvantages that these little helpers have:

• It is recommended to use them exclusively during sleep, this is the main inconvenience. This product will need to be folded and cleaned every day, and in the evening it will be laid out again and fixed on the sleeping place.
• Some models do not have the ability to roll up, as they have a hard filler - natural coconut fiber.

In the manufacture of thin orthopedic mattresses, manufacturers attach great importance to the advice of orthopedic doctors, and also listen to consumer feedback.

These products are distinguished depending on the quality of the material from which the upholstery of the product is made, as well as on the quality of the filler.

Mattresses, which contain natural materials and fillers, are more expensive, but they have no equal in quality. They will last longer and perform much better orthopedic functions compared to their cheaper counterparts.

Such products wear out faster, and a sufficient orthopedic effect is not provided.

It is worthwhile to familiarize yourself in more detail with all possible fillers for a thin orthopedic mattress and determine their positive and negative sides.

• Coconut fiber is one of the best bulking options available. Its advantages are that this filler has hypoallergenic and pronounced orthopedic properties. It can even be used to equip a sleeping place for an infant.

Coconut fiber is quickly ventilated, providing good ventilation, does not deteriorate or rot in a humid environment. Such material will serve its owners for many years, saving them from many problems associated with comfort during sleep and maintaining health. Among the disadvantages are the high price and the inability to fold or roll the mattress into a roll.

• Biookos is an analogue of the previous filler. However, the main difference from it is that in this filler coconut fibers are held together by synthetic hypoallergenic fiber - holofiber. It is this difference that can significantly reduce the cost of the finished product and slightly soften its design. In terms of other characteristics, the properties of this filler are similar to those of the previous model.

• Natural latex is another wonderful natural filler that is just perfect in every way. Like coconut fiber, natural latex has excellent orthopedic properties, does not rot, is well ventilated and requires little or no effort in caring for such a thin orthopedic mattress.

It is quite lightweight, flexible and compact. Hypoallergenic, can be used for daily sleep. A mattress with such a filler will be very comfortable and comfortable, as it takes the shape of the body of a sleeping person. There is only one drawback of this model - the high price.

• Synthetic latex Is a foam material that almost completely mimics the properties of natural latex. Due to its synthetic origin and fragility, it has a fairly low cost. It has a rigid base, thanks to which it copes well with its orthopedic duties.
• Strutoplast - a material that is used as a filler for a thin orthopedic mattress. It is quite durable. Its rigidity allows it to cope well with the main task. An excellent option in terms of price / quality ratio, since its cost is much lower than that of mattresses made using natural fillers.
• Polyurethane foam - the leader in sales among synthetic fillers for thin orthopedic mattresses, since these models have the lowest price. However, a mattress filled with polyurethane foam wears out quickly and sags in places of pressure. The advantages are the good orthopedic properties of this model (thanks to the use of reinforced foam rubber), as well as hypoallergenicity, convenience, and resistance to moisture.
• Memoriform - "foam with memory". The synthetic filler memoriform perfectly remembers and takes the shape of the sleeping person's body and has a supportive effect. It is one of the softest fillers for thin orthopedic mattresses.

There are many fillers for thin orthopedic mattresses, but it is more profitable to purchase a mattress with a combined filler. Many manufacturers also make such. Thanks to the combined filler, the user himself will decide what degree of rigidity to choose for his sleeping place - for an even more pleasant sleep.

When choosing a thin orthopedic mattress, you should pay attention to several important criteria, namely: the weight and complexion of the user for whom the thin orthopedic mattress is intended. The optimal rigidity of the product depends on this.

It is worth deciding on the size of a thin orthopedic mattress.The user must know which surface the product is intended for. If the dimensions of the sofa or bed are non-standard, you should make the product to order.

If the buyer has a disease, it is imperative to consult with an orthopedist who will advise on the best version of the mattress model. It will relieve tension from the lower back and muscles, and support the spine.
