Waking Up with a Dead Arm?
Sore shoulder. Tingling hand. Hip ache by 4am. Side sleepers carry their weight on two points. Your mattress has to soften there.
Two Points. Eight Hours. One Sore Body.
On your side, your whole body weight lands on your shoulder and your hip. A mattress that doesn’t soften under those two points pinches your blood flow, compresses the joint, and shoves your spine out of line.
You wake up with the dead arm. The shoulder ache. The hip pain by morning. You’ve tried flipping sides. It’s not the side. It’s the surface.
On a too-firm mattress, side sleepers carry up to 3x more pressure through the shoulder and hip than on a correctly fit surface.

Soft Where It Counts. Aligned Everywhere Else.
A mattress fit to your body lets your shoulder and hip sink just enough to keep your spine straight. The rest of the mattress still supports you. Nothing sags.
And the pillow has to match your shoulder width. Broader shoulders need a taller pillow. Narrower shoulders, a lower one. It’s a measurement, not a preference.
Three Pieces. No More Dead Arm.
Side-sleeping is a two-point balance act. Each piece has one job. Together they keep your spine straight.
A Mattress Fit to Your Body
Medium to medium-soft. Softer under the shoulder and hip. Still supportive enough that you don’t sink out of line.
A Pillow Matched to Your Shoulders
Fills the space between your ear and your shoulder. Keeps your head level with your spine. No kinked neck, no tingle by morning.
An Adjustable Base (Optional)
Side sleepers benefit from slight leg elevation. Keeps the hip stacked. Helps circulation if you run numb in the night.
One morning without the dead arm is worth more than a decade of your current mattress.
Side-sleeper fit cannot be guessed from a product page. You need to lie down. You need to lie down on your side. Backed by Saskatchewan’s 4.9 stars over 1,781 Google Reviews.

Quick Answers.
What we hear most from side sleepers across the province.
What mattress firmness is best for side sleepers?
Medium to medium-soft, usually. Your hip and shoulder need to sink in enough for a straight spine, but not so far you feel stuck. Exact fit depends on your weight.
Why do I wake up with a numb arm?
Shoulder pressure. A mattress that doesn’t soften under the shoulder pinches the blood flow. A mattress fit to your body fixes it for most Saskatchewan customers on night one.
What pillow is best for side sleepers?
One that fills the space between your ear and your shoulder so your head stays level with your spine. We measure shoulder width in-store at any Saskatchewan location.
Do you offer side-sleeper fittings in Regina, Moose Jaw, and Yorkton?
Yes. All 6 Saskatchewan locations. Come in on your side, not sitting up, so we can see what your body actually needs.
How fast will a new mattress help?
Most Saskatchewan customers notice relief from night one. Full adjustment takes 2-3 weeks. If it’s not right, swap under our 100 Night Sleep Guarantee.
