With our handy spring tension table and guides to help you find out which mattress best suits your needs; you don’t have to lose sleep over finding the best correct mattress tension for you.
Those with more severe or chronic joint and back pain may consider an orthopaedic mattresses instead of standard firm mattresses comfort grade. These mattresses are firm or extra firm and are designed to deliver the maximum support possible. They prevent the midsection of your body from sinking into the mattress, guaranteeing that your spine stays correctly aligned. They also ensure that your other muscles and joints are adequately supported no matter your sleep position of choice.
For a long time, sleeping on firm mattresses was the best way to prevent back issues and get a good night’s sleep. It appeared that the firmer the mattress, the more it would hold you up and alleviate any problems you had.
But deciding on which mattress firmness is right for you depends on a few things. The position you sleep in is crucial when considering what firmness to get.
Firm mattresses are an excellent choice if you sleep primarily on your front or back. The high level of support from firm mattresses allows your body weight to be distributed more evenly. This removes uncomfortable, and unnecessary, pressure on your spine and joints, especially the hips and shoulders.
The best firm mattresses in the UK is the one that’s perfectly suited to your particular sleeping position and needs.
When choosing a mattress, your decision should be based on whether a mattress is rated as soft, medium, firm or extra firm. We give you more options at Winstons Beds than just the basic firmness levels. We consider sensitive pressure points such as hips, ankles, necks and shoulders. We also give you a wide choice of materials, designs, and construction formats for your firm mattress.
With a selection of memory foam, pillow top and pocket spring mattresses; you’ll be able to find the best firm mattress that is tailored perfectly to your weight and sleeping position to minimise back pain no matter what position you like to sleep in at night.
An extra firm mattress can come with a wide variety of benefits.
The extra support given by a very firm mattress helps keep your whole-body level while you sleep, preventing your spine from curving and aiding with general good posture. Orthopaedic mattresses are generally rated very firm to give you maximum support as you sleep.
Winstons Beds spring tension table will show you that an extra firm mattress can benefit heavier or larger people, ensuring you don’t sink too deeply into your mattress at night, which can impact a good night’s sleep. Our table shows that a mattress with firm or extra firm tension is ideally suited for those 16 stone and over.
Whether you should sleep on soft or firm mattresses depends on what you want to target when you sleep.
A firm and soft mattress can soothe joint and muscle pain and choosing which firmness rating works best for your needs come down to a few key factors. Weight is a good starting point when considering what firmness is best for you.
Lighter people can benefit from a softer mattress, whereas heavier people can find the support they need from a firm mattress.
Something else to consider when choosing is whether you share a bed. Firm mattresses can give increased stability, ensuring you don’t roll into the centre of the bed while you and your partner are sleeping (commonly referred to as a “roll-together”).
Our Winstons Beds pocket spring and memory foam mattresses are constructed to provide support from every angle, meaning each spring or layer of foam will respond to your specific weight and how you move at night.
When searching for the perfect mattress, you’ll often find companies claiming that their firm mattresses will soften over time, and this is just part of normal wear and tear.
Equally common searches of ‘how to soften a firm mattress’ and tips to reduce the rigidity of a firm mattress are often seen. At Winstons Beds, we don’t think you should be the ones to have to put the extra effort into making your mattress perfect.

Back pain can be targeted in a few ways by selecting the right mattress.
The position you sleep in makes a big difference in choosing the best tension. For example, soft mattresses can help side sleepers or lighter people who need less support. However, if you are heavier or sleep on your back or front, firm mattresses will help soothe aches and pains and support the spine in a neutral position.
