However, there are several telltale signs to look for to determine if your mattress is at fault:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Painful Mornings<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you wake up with back pain every morning, it&#8217;s likely that your mattress and sleeping position are to blame. An old mattress, or one that is excessively soft\u00a0 for you, can place undue strain on your spine, resulting in morning back pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sleepless Nights<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having a bad night&#8217;s sleep might be caused by an uncomfortable mattress. Back discomfort can be exacerbated by your inability to sleep in a position that is both comfortable and restful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Constant Tiredness<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slow wave sleep can be disrupted by a mattress that is too firm or too soft. This is a big concern, as deep sleep is the time when your body is best able to recuperate. Your muscles and tendons begin to recover overnight when your brain shuts down to sleep and processes the day&#8217;s events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sleeping on an Old Mattress<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sleep specialist&#8217;s recommendation is that mattresses be replaced every 7-8 years. This is due to the fact that mattresses degrade with time. Not only that, but our body weight, sleeping patterns and bone density also fluctuate over time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re thinking about investing in a new mattress, visit us online to view our full <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brickellmattress.com\/mattresses\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mattress collection<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brickellmattress.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">top mattress brands<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for excellent back support, spine health, and deep, uninterrupted sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back pain can be caused by a number of things, making it difficult to pinpoint the source of your pain.
