**About this category**
## **Types of pressure mattress**
Pressure mattresses come in a few different types, suited to different levels of mobility and risk.
[Call Now: 02392 009999](tel:+442392009999)
### **Static foam mattresses**
Shaped or moulded foam designed to spread pressure across the body, generally suited to those who can reposition themselves.
### **Dynamic (alternating) air mattresses**
Powered systems that automatically change which areas are under pressure, generally suited to people with limited mobility or a higher level of risk.
### **Mattress overlays & toppers**
Fit on top of an existing mattress to add a lighter level of pressure relief without replacing the whole mattress.
**Comfort, range and independence**
## **Why choose our pressure mattresses**
Our pressure mattresses are chosen to support comfort and skin health for anyone who spends extended periods in bed.
### **Helps redistribute pressure**
Designed to spread body weight more evenly, helping to reduce pressure on the skin during long periods in bed.
### **A range of risk levels**
Choose from static foam options through to dynamic, alternating air systems, depending on your level of risk and mobility.
### **Compatible with profiling beds**
Many of our mattresses are designed to flex with multi-section bed frames, so you don't lose adjustability when you add pressure relief.
### **Hygienic, easy-clean covers**
Fluid-repellent, wipe-clean covers make it easier to keep things hygienic, which is especially helpful for anyone spending extended periods in bed.

**Common questions**
## **Pressure mattresses: your questions answered**
Answers to some of the questions we're asked most often about pressure relief mattresses.
What's the difference between a static and a dynamic (alternating) pressure mattress?
A static mattress, usually made from shaped foam or gel, is designed for people who can reposition themselves and need general comfort and pressure support. A dynamic, or alternating, mattress uses a powered pump to automatically change which areas are under pressure, and is generally suited to people with more limited mobility or a higher level of risk.
How do I know what level of pressure relief I need?
The right level of pressure relief depends on factors like your mobility, how much time you spend in bed, and your current skin condition. A district nurse, occupational therapist or GP can carry out a risk assessment and recommend the type of mattress that's most appropriate for your situation.
Will a pressure relief mattress fit my bed?
Most pressure relief mattresses are made to fit standard UK bed sizes, so they'll generally fit a standard bed frame. It's worth checking the mattress dimensions and depth against your frame and any existing bed rails before ordering.
Can a pressure mattress be used with a profiling or adjustable bed?
Yes, many pressure relief mattresses are designed to flex with multi-section profiling and adjustable beds. It's worth checking that the specific mattress you're considering is suitable for use with a profiling base before ordering.
How do I clean and maintain a pressure mattress?
Most pressure relief mattresses have a fluid-repellent, wipe-clean cover, which supports good hygiene and infection control at home. Always follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions, as some covers and foam interiors have specific care requirements.
