Best type of foam mattress topper?

Hi Guys,

I am researching the differences in foam mattress pads. There are different thicknesses, different densities, open cell versus closed cell, etc. What is the best type of mattress to get where your body can just sink down in the mattress, allowing your spine to be in the neutral position, to ultimately provide the best sleep? My mattress I have now is rather firm and I am looking for support as well as more cushion.

Thank You

Any pillow tops from any companty that starts with S.

Hospitals generally use a 4 inch thick 'eggcrate' foam mattress topper for patients who are bedridden for prolonged periods.

This kind of pad provides maximum support and comfort while reducing the risk of bedsores.

If you can find one that is made of closed cell foam this would be the best choice. Closed cell foam provides greater support, is slightly firmer and offers a much lower absorbtion of liquids.
