Benefits of a Latex Foam Mattress
Pain Relief
A Latex foam mattress provides buoyant and gentle support through its rubber construction, making it ideal for people with back and joint pain. Latex foam cradles your body when laid upon, such as your hips and shoulders if you are a side sleeper. This provides excellent relief of pressure points in your joints and back while also providing proper spinal alignment in your back and neck.
Breathability
Latex foam has an open-cell structure that allows for constant airflow throughout the foam. Latex foam is also constructed with pincore holes that further enhance its breathability, providing a cool sleep experience.
Durability
The rubber construction of Latex foam makes for a very durable mattress solution that provides long-term comfort. Latex foam can last between one to two decades, which is much longer than most other foam types. This is because other foam types break down as they age, becoming softer. Latex foam is the opposite. As it ages, its rubber construction hardens, meaning that those who prefer a firmer feel may see even more use out of their Latex foam mattress. Regardless, Latex foam will easily maintain its bouncy feel for many years.
Hypoallergenic
Normally, if a mattress is not cleaned, microorganisms such as bacteria can collect and over time, lead to mold, mildew, and dust mites. This may cause allergic reactions when trying to sleep as well as a generally unsafe environment. Latex foam is an exception due to its naturally antimicrobial rubber construction. This means that it prevents the penetration and collection of harmful microorganisms within the foam. As such, Latex foam is an excellent mattress choice for those with allergies or for those who prefer a low maintenance mattress solution.
