11 May Orthopaedic or memory foam? Which mattress is right for your back?
Back and neck pain after sleep is one of the most common concerns we hear at our Sleep Centres across Cyprus. In most cases, the problem is not your age or your sleep position. It is the mattress itself. And the good news is that the right mattress can make an immediate, lasting difference to how you wake up every morning.
What does orthopaedic mean?
An orthopaedic mattress is designed to support the spine in its natural position, reducing pressure at the points of the body that carry the most weight. At Gevorest, we believe every quality mattress must adapt to the anatomy of the body and maintain proper spinal alignment throughout the night. This principle is at the heart of everything we design and manufacture.
What are memory foam mattresses?
Memory foam conforms to the shape of your body under the influence of heat and weight, providing excellent pressure relief. It is one of the key materials we use across our anatomic and orthopaedic collections, chosen for its ability to absorb and distribute body pressure evenly.
Which collection is right for you?
We offer two main orthopaedic and anatomic collections for adults: the Relax and the Anesis. Both are built around orthopaedic support, but each has its own character and appeals to different needs and preferences.
The Relax collection: support and style for the modern sleeper
Our Relax collection consists of four orthopaedic and anatomic mattress types, characterised by clean, elegant design in a monochromatic grey. It is the collection for the modern person who wants outstanding comfort and support without sacrificing aesthetics. The range includes Relax Chic, Relax Elegance, Relax InStyle and Relax Genteel, each available in different firmness options.
The Anesis collection: modern and cost-effective
The Anesis collection brings together seven upgraded anatomic and orthopaedic mattresses, with a simple geometric design in pure white. It is a genuinely modern and accessible choice for any bedroom, and includes Anesis Trend, Anesis Mood and Anesis Motion.
The Ypnos collection: the premium choice
For those looking for the very best in every respect, the Ypnos collection is our flagship line. It brings together science and aesthetics in every mattress, using premium materials including organic cotton. The range includes Ypnos Pearl, Ypnos Emerald, Ypnos Gold, Ypnos Platinum and Ypnos 19z7.
If you and your partner have different needs
One of the questions we hear most often is: what do we do when one of us needs a firm mattress and the other needs soft? We designed the Individual Comfort solution precisely for this: mattresses with a different, personalised feel on each side, so neither partner needs to make a compromise. Everyone gets the support and comfort they need, every night.
Your pillow is part of the picture too
An orthopaedic mattress is only half the equation. If your pillow does not correctly support your neck and keep your spine aligned, the mattress cannot do its full job. That is why we also offer a dedicated range of sleep pillows designed to work alongside our mattresses as a complete sleep system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which mattress is best for back pain in Cyprus?
A: The ideal mattress for back pain is one that adapts to the anatomy of your body and maintains your spine in its natural position throughout the night. Both our Relax and Anesis collections are built with this purpose in mind. The right choice for you depends on your body type and preferences, and our Sleep Advisors at any of our Sleep Centres will help you find it.
Q: What is the difference between orthopaedic and anatomic mattresses?
A: These two terms are often used together, and for good reason. Both refer to mattresses designed to support correct body posture during sleep. At Gevorest, we use the combined description anatomic and orthopaedic for our Relax and Anesis collections, because the support they provide covers both the spine and the full anatomy of the body.
Q: Can I try an orthopaedic mattress before buying in Cyprus?
A: Absolutely. We invite you to visit any of our 15 Sleep Centres across Cyprus, where you can lie down, test the feel of each collection and receive personalised guidance from our trained Sleep Advisors. We believe you should never buy a mattress without trying it first.
Q: Should I replace my pillow when I change my mattress?
A: We always recommend choosing your mattress and pillow together as a system. An orthopaedic mattress works best when paired with a pillow that correctly supports your neck and keeps your spine in alignment from head to lower back.
