What Kind of Mattress Do Side Sleepers Need?

When it comes to finding a mattress for side sleepers, there are specific elements to consider, such as:

Firmness

If you sleep on your side, you will most likely need a medium to firm mattress. This is because this type of mattress provides additional support for your spine and pressure points, cushioning you comfortably as you sleep. If your mattress is too soft, you may sink too deeply into it, which will result in poor alignment.

Thickness

For side sleepers, it’s recommended that you find a mattress with adequate thickness. Mattresses that are at least 25 to 30 cm thick can better support you (check out our size guide to learn more about finding the right mattress for you). You can add to this thickness using mattress toppers or protectors.

Mattress Types

There are multiple mattress types that are suitable for side sleepers. This includes memory foam mattresses, which contour to your body but still support it; latex mattresses, which offer a decent amount of responsiveness; and innerspring mattresses, for those after a more traditional type of mattress.

Pressure Relief

Side sleepers should invest in memory foam or latex mattresses that offer pressure relief, particularly in their joints. Memory foam and latex mattresses can aid with distributing weight and pressure while providing additional support.

How Can I Make My Mattress More Comfortable for a Side Sleeper?

It depends on your unique preferences when it comes to rest, but side sleepers should focus on alignment during sleep as best they can.

To do this, you should focus on getting plenty of support for your joints and spine while having a thick mattress that cradles your form with a moderate amount of leeway. We also recommend adding a pillow between your legs because it will reduce any discomfort caused by the added pressure of sleeping on your side.

What Mattress Firmness Is Best for Side Sleepers?

A medium-firm or firm mattress is best suited for side sleepers. This is because this type of mattress can support your frame and alleviate joint or spinal discomfort at the same time. It’s important to find a mattress that works best for you and your sleeping preferences.
