Why Menopause Affects Sleep
During menopause, changes in hormones can disrupt your body’s natural temperature regulation, leaving you prone to hot flashes and night sweats. Add in aches, joint stiffness, or general restlessness, and even a few hours of quality sleep can feel impossible.
That’s where your mattress comes in. A mattress that manages heat, supports your body, and keeps you comfortable can reduce disruptions and help you get the restorative sleep you need.
What to Look for in a Menopause-Friendly Mattress
When shopping for a mattress during menopause, these features are key:
● Cooling and airflow – Open-cell foams, ventilated layers, and hybrid spring cores allow air to circulate and prevent heat build-up.
● Pressure relief – Memory foams or comfort layers cushion shoulders, hips, and back, helping reduce tossing and turning.
● Supportive structure – Proper spinal alignment is essential for deeper, more restorative sleep.
● Moisture-wicking covers – Fabrics that pull sweat away from your skin keep you dry and comfortable through the night.
How Nectar Can Help
Nectar mattresses are designed with menopause-related sleep challenges in mind. Across the range — from Nectar Memory Foam to Nectar Premier Hybrid — our mattresses feature:
● Ventilated foams and hybrid coil systems to improve airflow
● Breathable, moisture-wicking covers
● Pressure-relieving support to keep your body aligned
All of this comes together to create a sleep environment that helps you stay cooler, more comfortable, and less disrupted by menopause symptoms.
MTick Certification: Evidence-Based Menopause Support
