A pressure relief mattress helps by spreading your body weight more evenly across the sleep surface, so heavier points like your shoulders, hips, and lower back are not carrying the full load on their own through the night. Every mattress reacts to your body differently, and that reaction is what decides how sore or rested you feel in the morning.
- What it does: cushions high-contact points instead of pushing back evenly everywhere
- Who benefits: side and back sleepers most, since their pressure points carry the most load
- Materials that do this well: memory foam, cool gel memory foam, natural organic latex
What Is a Pressure Relief Mattress, Really
The term gets used loosely while talking about mattresses, so it is worth being precise about it. Pressure builds wherever your body presses hardest into the mattress, and where that happens depends entirely on how you sleep.
| Sleep Position | Where Pressure Builds Most |
|---|---|
| Side Sleepers | Shoulders and hips |
| Back Sleepers | Lumbar region and hips |
| Stomach Sleepers | Midsection |
On a surface that does not give at all, that pressure stays concentrated in a small area, which can restrict blood flow enough to wake you or leave you sore in the morning. A pressure relieving mattress cushions specifically at those points while still holding its structure everywhere else.
The clinical evidence behind this is more substantial than most people realise. A Cochrane systematic review led by Chunhu Shi and colleagues, drawing on 29 studies covering more than 9,500 participants, confirmed that surface design has a measurable effect on how pressure is distributed across the body during long periods of lying down.

Types of Pressure Relieving Mattresses and How They Differ
Not every pressure reducing mattress works the same way, and the material inside changes both the feel and how long that feel lasts.
- Memory Foam: Responds to body heat and weight, softening exactly where you lie and slowly reshaping as you move. Best known for cushioning the shoulders and hips directly.
- Cool Gel Memory Foam: Does the same contouring job with gel particles worked in to pull heat away from the body, which matters in the UAE where standard foam can trap warmth.
- 7-Zone Natural Organic Latex: Responds instantly and springs back as you move rather than slowly sinking, giving a bouncier feel while staying cooler naturally without a gel additive.
Easeliving's Pressure Relieving Mattress Range
All three mattresses below share a pocket spring foundation, so the real difference between them comes down to the comfort layer on top and how each one feels against your body.
Pocket Spring Memory Foam Mattress
Ideal For: Back And Stomach Sleepers, While Supporting All Sleeping Positions
Firmness: Medium-Firm
Material: Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress
Warranty: 10 Years
Key Features: Memory Foam Pressure Relief | Motion Isolation | Reinforced Edge Support | Pocket Spring Structure | Euro Top Design | Available In 30cm Height | 15-Night Trial
This is the most direct pressure relief memory foam mattress in the range. The memory foam layer softens under the shoulders and hips while the pocket springs underneath keep the whole structure from sagging, so the pressure relief does not come at the cost of long-term support. At 30cm, it also has enough depth for the foam to do its job properly rather than bottoming out under heavier pressure points.

Ideal For: All Sleeping Positions
Firmness: Firm
Material: Cool Gel Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress
Warranty: 10 Years
Key Features: Cool Gel Temperature Control | Motion Isolation | Pocket Spring Structure | Euro Top Design | Breathable Knit Fabric | Available In 30cm | 15-Night Trial Period
If heat retention has put you off memory foam in the past, this is the mattress that relieves pressure points without the usual warmth trade-off. The gel infusion actively draws heat away from your body while the memory foam layer still handles the contouring work at the shoulders and hips. The pocket spring base keeps everything properly supported underneath, even at a firmer feel.

Ideal For: Back And Stomach Sleepers, While Supporting All Sleeping Positions
Firmness: Medium
Material: 100% Natural Organic Latex Pocket Spring Mattress
Warranty: 10 Years
Key Features: 7-Zone Natural Organic Latex | Pocket Spring Support System | Foam-Encased Border | GOLS | Oeko-Tex Standard 100 | Eco-Institut Tested Product | Fair For Life Fair Trade Certified | Available In 30cm Height | 15-Night Trial
For anyone who wants pressure relief without leaning on synthetic foam, this is the natural alternative. The natural organic latex responds quickly at the shoulders and hips rather than slowly sinking, which some sleepers find more comfortable than memory foam's slower contour. Its open structure also keeps air moving so heat never builds up the way it can with dense foam, and the certifications confirm it as genuinely natural material.
View Hybrid Natural Organic Latex Mattress →Choosing a King Size Pressure Relief Mattress
Pressure relief matters just as much, if not more, on larger beds. A king size pressure relief mattress needs to hold consistent support across a wider surface without any dip forming where two sleepers' weight overlaps.
- Pocket spring builds hold structural consistency across a king size bed better than a single continuous foam slab
- Each spring compresses independently, so one side sinking does not disturb the other
- Custom sizing is available if your bed frame falls outside the seven standard dimensions
All three mattresses above use this pocket spring foundation, so scaling up to king size does not compromise the pressure relief itself.
A Simple Way to Choose
Here is a quick reference to match your needs to the right build.
| If you want... | Choose |
|---|---|
| Classic, deep-contouring pressure relief | Pocket Spring Memory Foam Mattress |
| Pressure relief plus a cooler sleep surface | Pocket Cool Gel Memory Foam Mattress |
| A natural, more responsive feel underneath | Hybrid Natural Organic Latex Mattress |
All three share the same pocket spring foundation, so the choice really comes down to how you want the surface itself to feel.
People Also Ask
What is the best pressure relief mattress for shoulder and hip pain?
Memory foam and natural organic latex mattresses tend to perform best, since both contour closely around these pressure points rather than pushing back evenly across the whole surface.
Are pressure relieving mattresses only for people with medical conditions?
No. Pressure redistribution is used clinically to prevent issues in patients who spend long periods lying down, but the same principle applies to anyone who wants less pressure buildup during ordinary sleep.
Does a pressure relief mattress work for all sleeping positions?
Largely yes, though pressure points differ by position. A medium to medium-firm pressure relieving mattress generally supports side, back, and stomach sleeping reasonably well.
Is memory foam or natural organic latex better for pressure relief?
Both relieve pressure effectively but differently. Memory foam slowly contours and holds its shape, while natural organic latex responds instantly and springs back as you move.
Can a pressure relief mattress help with poor circulation while sleeping?
Reducing concentrated pressure at contact points does help support healthier blood flow during sleep, which is part of why pressure redistributing surfaces are used clinically.
Where can I buy a pressure relief mattress in the UAE?
You can buy a pressure relief mattress from Easeliving, where you get the full warranty, custom sizing where needed, and a proper 15-night trial period to judge the pressure relief for yourself.
