Step 2 • Firmness

Selecting Your Ideal Firmness Level

Firmness determines how well your body weight is distributed and supported.

4 - 5 / 10

Medium Soft (Plush)

Gentle cushioning that hugs your shoulders and hips, relieving surface pressure points.

Best for: Side sleepers and lighter individuals under 60 kg.

Doctor Recommended

6.5 - 7.5 / 10

Medium Firm (Orthopedic)

The golden standard for spinal posture. Gives ergonomic lumbar support with gentle contouring.

Best for: Back sleepers, combination sleepers & back pain sufferers.

8 - 9 / 10

Firm (Hard Support)

Solid, high-density resilience that prevents heavy pelvic sagging and maintains flat spinal alignment.

Best for: Stomach sleepers, heavier adults, and senior citizens.

Step 3 • Posture

Mattress Needs by Sleeping Position

How you sleep at night dictates the kind of support your body requires.

Side Sleepers (60% of people)

Your shoulders and hips concentrate heavy pressure. You need a mattress with responsive contouring to allow hips to sink just enough so the spine remains parallel to the bed.

→ Recommended: Ortham Dual Comfort (Plush Side)

Back Sleepers (30% of people)

Your lower back has a natural forward arch. A sagging mattress lets the spine bow, while an excessively hard board leaves the lumbar unsupported in the air.

→ Recommended: Ortham Orthopedic Medium-Firm Side

Stomach Sleepers (10% of people)

Sleeping on your stomach places high strain on the cervical spine and neck. You need a firmer core that prevents your stomach from sinking deep into the mattress.

→ Recommended: Ortham High-Density Firm Side

Care & Longevity

Tips for Extending Your Mattress Life

Keep your Ortham mattress fresh, supportive, and hygienic for over a decade.

Rotate Periodically

Rotate your mattress head-to-toe every 3 to 6 months to ensure even wear across all sleeping zones.

Use a Mattress Protector

A breathable, waterproof protector shields against accidental spills, dust mites, sweat, and allergens.

Periodic Sunning & Airing

Let your mattress air out in natural daylight occasionally to maintain internal freshness and eliminate moisture.

Solid Bed Foundation

Ensure your bed frame has solid, evenly spaced slats or a flat board without broken or dipping center beams.
