Do I need an orthopaedic bed if I have a bad back?
There is no such thing as an orthopaedic bed. Beds are designed in soft, medium or firm. Soft beds for light people, firm beds for heavy people. There is no single right bed to ease a back problem and additionally, each different back problem may require a different solution. Look for a supportive rather than a hard bed. Do not assume that firmer beds are the best option. Often a medium firm bed with proper cushioning is better. Back to the top.
