When you suffer from lower back pain the mattress should be medium firmness.

You don't want the mattress to be too soft or too firm but a medium firmness mattress is usually the best firmness of mattress for people who suffer from lower back pain.

Alternatively a Sleep Number bed can help you sleep better when you have lower back pain.

Sleep Number Beds are good for people who have lower back pain.

I have lower back pain and have a sleep number bed and the sleep number bed helps me sleep much better and reduces the lower back pain.

I sleep much better now that I have a sleep number bed as I can dial in the comfort unlike with a regular mattress.

I highly recommend a sleep number bed to anyone who has back pain or lower back pain as they really do make a difference.

Before the sleep number bed I had a memory foam mattress which helped some with the lower back pain but the sleep number bed is much better.

My back does not hurt anymore when I sleep on the sleep number bed but if I sleep in a hotel bed or another bed that is not a sleep number bed then my back hurts.

The sleep number bed can help with lower back pain or even regular back pain because the sleep number bed contours to your neck, shoulders, back and hips*, providing support and even weight distribution to relieve pressure points and help reduce pain.
