Arthritis
Reta M.S
I love this set. I had wanted one for years, but my husband didn’t want me to spend that much money on a mattress set, I think mainly because he didn’t believe that it could be so comfortable. He passed away in Dec. of 2006 from lung cancer and I moved from our large lake-front home to a senior citizen community park. So then I ordered the mattress set from a local business, and I am so glad that I did that! I am 72 years old, overweight, and suffer from arthritis and prone to get sore from sleeping on any other kind of mattress. The last one we had together was the Select Comfort air mattress, which I still have in my guest bedroom, but made my shoulders and hips especially, very sore when sleeping. We even tried a water bed which was nice at first, especially because of the heated water, but also made me sore, plus hard to get out of in the morning as we got older.
The only thing I don’t like about the Temper-Pedic is that I don’t want to get up in the morning! I don’t get sore anymore from lying in bed and sleep so much more soundly, even after the loss of my spouse of 50 years of marriage.

“I personally use a Tempur-Pedic mattress and recommend it to all my patients who suffer from chronic neck and back pain. Using a good quality mattress is a critical step in managing common back conditions such as arthritis, degenerative disc disease, and sciatica. Our treatment and outcomes have been much better when we have patients switch to a Tempur-Pedic mattresses as well. Since we rely on making structural changes to the body through specific manual therapy techniques along with physical therapy and rehabilitation exercises, it is essential to carry these changes over into the sleep cycle which accounts for nearly 30% of the time in our life cycle. In my past ten years of private practice, I have not recommended any other mattress but the Tempur-Pedic brand.”
