Latex mattresses can help relieve back pain because they conform to your body weight and promote proper spinal alignment, with no synthetic materials or environmental toxins present. Premium features and certification may increase its cost.
Latex mattresses provide an appealing bouncy feel that many people love. However, it may take your body some time to adapt from its previous sleep surface.
Nolah Natural
The Nolah Natural mattress is an ideal option for back sleepers, offering great support and pressure relief while its latex foam and zoned structure help with proper spine alignment. Unfortunately, however, stomach sleepers may find the Nolah mattress too soft, leading to hips sinking into it and potentially resulting in pain. Furthermore, durability issues have arisen with some models of Nolah mattresses.
This mattress boasts six layers, starting with an organic cotton and wool foundation layer for extra durability as well as temperature regulation and moisture wicking. Next is a 2-inch layer of Talalay latex – which offers responsive pressure-relief properties – before an organic cotton and wool comfort layer provides soft comfort with added softness for soft sleeping surfaces. Lastly, Nolah’s proprietary HDMax Tri-Zone support coil system adds optimal support and responsiveness for an incredible sleeping experience.
Nolah is an eco-friendly company that sources its latex from Hevea Brasiliensis rubber trees in South America, using harvesting methods that do not harm them and have proven productive for up to 25 years. Nolah latex is certified OEKO-TEX and GOTS for hypoallergenicity and chemical free use; additionally it holds Rainforest Alliance Certification to demonstrate sustainable forest practices on rubber plantations properties.
The Nolah Natural mattress comes in twin, full, queen, and king sizes and is compatible with any flat surface including slatted beds, boxsprings/foundations/adjustable bed bases or the ground. Furthermore, its 120-night trial period and lifetime limited warranty make setup quick and painless – plus it’s made right here in America!
Birch Natural
The Birch Natural is an all-natural latex mattress suitable for back sleepers with pain. Its latex support layer relieves pressure points while its coil base supports spine health while isolating motion isolation. Furthermore, this mattress offers strong edge support and excellent responsiveness; however some couples may experience unwanted creaking from its steel coils due to frequent movement during their restless nights.
This mattress provides a medium firm feel and will suit most types of sleepers. Constructed from layers of organic cotton, wool, and Talalay latex – eco-INSTITUT certified low emissions latex harvested sustainably from rubber trees on carefully monitored farms – its layers create a soft yet resilient mattress surface which makes this model extremely long-term durable.
Add a 3-inch pillow top for an indulgent feel! This will increase the thickness and make this mattress even more suitable for side sleepers while increasing comfort with added latex support and cooling properties. Plus, this mattress meets Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS).
This bed-in-a-box mattress for environmentalists contains no harmful chemicals or synthetic materials, with organic cotton and wool grown responsibly for production, as well as being free from formaldehyde, phthalates, pollutants or volatile organic compounds according to GOTS certification standards.
Birch Natural mattress features natural materials that are highly breathable, making this mattress cooler than many hybrid options. Aerated latex in the comfort layer balances heat and wicks away moisture to maintain an ideal body temperature throughout the night – coupled with pocketed coils, this mattress keeps sleepers cool for optimal restful nights’ rest.
This bed-in-a-box mattress features an 11-inch hybrid construction featuring organic cotton, wool and Talalay natural latex for ultimate comfort and responsiveness. This combination works exceptionally well when combined with individually-wrapped coils below it; giving this mattress its bounce while helping maintain its shape over time. Organic cotton and wool also serve as natural flame retardants making this product suitable for those with chemical sensitivities.
PlushBeds Botanical Bliss
PlushBeds Botanical Bliss mattress is a premium latex foam bed constructed with organic cotton, natural wool, Talalay and Arpico latex to deliver exceptional pressure relief. Available from twin to California king in a range of sizes; various firmness levels available to cater to most sleepers’ preferences; perfect choice for back pain sufferers thanks to contouring to body curves for support where needed and better posture promoting. Plus, edge support makes sharing bed more manageable if sharing bed with someone else!
Botanical Bliss mattresses feature covers composed of soft GOLS certified organic cotton and GOTS certified organic wool that are both breathable and antimicrobial; making it suitable for individuals suffering from allergies. In addition, its layer above the cover features comforting Talalay latex that has also been certified GOLS; providing an initial feel. Furthermore, there are transition and core layers made up of more durable and dense Dunlop latex which provide support as you sleep on top.
All layers are ventilated, which helps keep the bed cool. Latex material wicks away moisture quickly and is therefore ideal for those who tend to overheat during sleep, while its cooling qualities allow hot sleepers to rest easily without becoming overheated during their slumber.
Latex mattresses provide superior bounce, unlike memory foam which tends to create the sinking feeling common with traditional innerspring beds. The Botanical Bliss mattress’s responsive nature makes it easy for couples who tend to switch sleeping positions during the night to switch positions without disturbing each other’s restful slumber. This feature makes the Botanical Bliss an excellent option.
This mattress is handmade to order in the United States using modern technology to assemble organic materials with precision, eliminating VOC emissions and carrying both OEKO-TEX and GREENGUARD Gold certifications. Additionally, its 100 night comfort guarantee and free shipping and returns make this an excellent option for eco-conscious shoppers looking to minimize their environmental footprint.
Zenhaven
Saatva’s Zenhaven mattress is an eco-conscious latex foam mattress featuring five layers: organic cotton, wool, aerated latex with zoned firmness capabilities and a solid pine frame.
The soft cover of this mattress is knitted from organic cotton and features a layer of wool to serve as a flame retardant without chemical-based solutions. A 1.5″ Luxury Plush Talalay latex layer offers comfort when contouring to body. Flipping it over exposes another 1.5″ Gentle Firm Talalay latex layer which offers soft yet supportive cushioning when switched sides.
Both sides of the Zenhaven Mattress provide excellent solutions for most sleepers. The Luxury Plush side provides stomach and side sleepers with a soft contour feel while Gentle Firm side offers more pronounced support and spinal alignment for back sleepers. Combination sleepers will find its versatility invaluable; simply position it to meet your comfort preferences.
Zenhaven mattresses are among the only bed-in-a-box mattresses to arrive fully assembled, eliminating the need for off-gassing period typically associated with bed-in-a-box products like polyurethane mattresses. Latex is a natural material which doesn’t produce volatile organic compounds like polyurethane does and so there’s no off-gassing period necessary.
Zenhaven mattresses provide cool night’s rest due to breathable materials and pin core holes which allow heat to escape through the top surface of the mattress. Cotton and Joma wool layers work together to draw heat away from your body and keep you cool throughout the night.
This mattress is an excellent option for couples as it eliminates motion transfer even when one partner moves a lot throughout the night, thanks to latex’s dense yet heavy nature that doesn’t redistribute movements like memory foam does. Furthermore, its solid pine frame adds durability and helps prevent it from sagging over time; plus there is a 20-year non-prorated warranty! Unfortunately it lacks reinforced edge support, however.
