Does memory foam feel different than ordinary foam pads?
Yes, this is one of the first things people notice. When you squeeze this type of foam, it feels so different – as though there were a gel in the foam. If you press your hand in the foam, it leaves an imprint that slowly disappears as the foam returns to its normal shape. And when you lie down on the foam, it molds to the curves of your body and cushions you in a very pleasant way. Some say it feels almost like you are floating on water. Back sleepers often tell me that they love how it fills in and supports the curve in their lower backs.
