Most people are heaviest in their mid-section thanks to both the heavier bones of the pelvis and larger lumbar joints, but also because that is where we tend to hold extra weight. While Pillow-Top mattresses, innerspring and other pressure relief materials such as memory foam, gel foam and latex foam offer the comfort needed to allow the body to relax enough to fall asleep, they usually fall short in allowing the spine to maintain the proper alignment needed to give it the support that is required to keep a healthy back. The Back Science® mattress has a proprietary built-in adjustable lumbar zone that will provide more support in the mid-section, thereby changing the pivot angle that will counter balance your spine to give more mid-section buoyancy, while allowing your shoulders and legs to achieve more contouring pressure relief. The result is a more comfortable sleeping position that maintains that proper spinal alignment. You can then have the option to pair the Back Science® mattress with our Back Science® Adjustable Beds to allow you to also make real-time overall back support adjustments that can further refine the level of spinal support (as in the case of our Level 2 and 3 BackFlex™ Series), as well as offer head and foot elevation, zero gravity position and even vibration massage to create the ultimate back pain solution!
It's a well-known fact that a good night's sleep is vital for your health, but those that suffer from back pain know that without the right mattress to properly support your spine, the pain can become intolerable and lead to the constant need to shift and squirm to find that comfortable position all night long, thereby destroying the quality healing sleep so crucially needed to allow the body to produce the proper hormones to begin the healing process.
Your level of back pain is a good indicator of how well your back is supported by your mattress and that's why you should never settle for allowing your back pain to continue and even worsen throughout the night due to an unsupportive mattress. With our Back Science Bed, we have engineered our mattresses to properly support your spine by looking at the correct anatomical posture. The Back Science mattress will contour the shape of your back, without allowing your center to hammock down into the mattress. The result is true anatomically correct alignment of your spine, while giving muscle and joint pressure relief and comfort thanks to our specially zoned and extra buoyant ResiliFlex™ support base and Posture-Flex™ Gel Comfort layers with the Back Science® adjustable bed, you even have the BackFlex™ technology that allows you to further adjust the lumbar and upper spinal support.

After over 22 years of designing every type of mattress, with some very successful top-rated national brands, I am most proud of what I helped achieve with the Back Science Bed, since it is the first mattress, like the name implies, uses actual science and technology to achieve a real solution for helping support the back, as well as helping those who suffer from back pain finally get the proper rest they so badly need. The Back Science® Bed is not only perfect for helping to keep your back in proper alignment due to its very specific lumbar zoning and buoyant gel foams, but it also offers the necessary contouring pressure relief to properly support all the surrounding musculature and allow the shoulders to conform with the mattress to reduce joint pressure points. Below is an image showing a demonstration of a model that was used to verify the change in alignment with the Mattress Checker App. when he was on a Back Science® Series 2 vs. one of our other softer mattresses from a different brand. When you look at the posture alignment of the model's spine with a soft mattress that has no zoning and with our Back Science® Series 2, you will see quite a difference in the alignment. The spine should be straight when you are on your side, but with the softer mattress, the alignment is 900% worse than with the specially zoned Back Science® mattress (Deviation angle of over 13.8 degrees vs. only 1.4 degrees off the 180 degree straight line). The amazing thing is that the Back Science Series 2 and 3 offer an incredible amount of joint pressure reduction and are just as comfortable as many softer types of mattresses, even though they both provide a more buoyant firm type of support in the low back, thanks to that special lumbar zoning that gives that firmer lift.
Additionally, the Back Science mattress is also very specifically made to work in tandem with an adjustable bed that will provide head and foot elevation (zero-gravity as an example), which can be quite beneficial in reducing pressure in the spine. We even offer an adjustable bed base that can further adjust the overall back support, using our BackFlex™ lumbar support technology. Thanks to our all USA made higher-grade components, our Back Science mattress has an industry leading 30-year limited warranty that offers double the sag coverage at only ¾ of an inch, compared to the 1.5 inches most companies require before the warranty is triggered. Since you never can really know how a mattress will do until you sleep on it, we offer a 4-month sleep trial, whereby we will exchange or modify the mattress to suit your exact firmness or other needs at no cost.
