Great vid very informative keep it up!

[@vaughnslavin9784]

Thank you!

Might also want to mention those latex mattresses you can buy that ship with multiple layers of varying firmness of latex. They can be moved around to alter the overall firmness of the mattress.

[@TheSleepDoctor]

That's great feedback! Yes, you can find latex beds that very customizable.

[@stephaniecrothers8482]

Naturepedic is one of those companies.

I have a latex topper and I love it.
It’s great for my Fibromyalgia. ❤

[@TheSleepDoctor]

That's great! Love the feedback!

[@marciarezende3008]

Thanks for the video. I still have one question. You mentioned that latex bed is good for back and stomach sleepers, what about side sleepers, what is the best selection? Would still latex mattress?

[@TheSleepDoctor]

Latex mattresses can still be great for side sleepers, it’s more just they are especially good for back and stomach sleepers. Check out our site for info on finding a good latex bed for side sleepers

[@marciarezende3008]

@@TheSleepDoctor thank you for your response. I will check your site. We are bought a new bed, it arrives in September, and we will need to get a new mattress 🙂 That is why I started my research.

You purchase a latex mattress that is customizable. SleepEZ and Naturepedic, among others, allow you to customize each side of the bed to the comfort of each person. For example, my husband and I went to an organic latex mattress store last weekend and discovered that although we are both side sleepers, he likes softer, and I like a medium firm. So if we buy the Naturepedic mattress, we will get two different firmness on one bed. And if we don't like it after a month, we can swap out a layer of latex for a different firmness for free in the first 100 days with Naturepedic. We are getting the hybrid with coils and latex and a pillowtop.
The other is Naturally Nestled latex hybrid. They both offer a 25 year warranty Trying to decide between the two the two.

Would you recommend latex mattress for someone with sciatica and nerve damage?

[@hastensavoir7782]

Definitely better than Memory foam.

Those blue eyes are so nice

[@user-tx4fb7ey6y]

Are they ok for children to use?

[@deefee701]

They're safe, but humans under 130lbs or 58kgs, which is kids, will not sink into the latex and so it will feel like a slab to lay on. If you want natural bedding for lightweight humans, I recommend a Japanese futon. Get a proper Japanese one. The Japanese swear by them and are small, light people.

[@d1m18]

You cannot get a softer latex pad for people less then 130lbs?

[@deefee701]

You can get a Talalay topper which might be good. If you're less than 130lbs which is 58kgs, I recommend a Japanese futon. Get a proper Japanese one. The Japanese swear by them and are small, light people.

[@stephaniecrothers8482]

You want Dunlop latex which is 100% latex.
Do NOT get talalay latex because it doesn't get the GOLS certification. Talalay is very expensive to make, too expensive, which means it's NOT all latex. It's 30% talalay latex and 70% synthetic latex.

[@MangaMiyn]

So memory foam evil latex good

[@deefee701]

No, they're different.

[@stephaniecrothers8482]

If you sleep hot and want a mattress that will last longer than 5 years, latex is better.

[@hastensavoir7782]

@@deefee701Latex has more Good Benefits than Memory foam which has more Odds.

@@deefee701 No they're right. memory foam bad. latex good.
