Why Latex Mattresses Help with Hip Pain:
1. Pressure Relief Without Sinkage
Latex gently cushions your hips while maintaining support for proper spinal alignment.
Unlike memory foam, which can feel too “sinking,” latex provides a buoyant feel — pressure is reduced without sagging.
2. Responsive Support
Natural latex adapts to your body shape quickly and bounces back — great for people who change positions during the night and need consistent support around the hips.
3. Customizable Firmness
Many latex mattresses come with adjustable layers — you can rearrange or swap layers to find the ideal comfort level for hip pressure points. We carry Savvy Rest and Suite Sleep that offer adjustable layers.
4. No Sagging Over Time
Latex is durable and holds its shape longer than memory foam, meaning it won’t indent at the hips, which can worsen pain over time.
