Camping is a fantastic way to get some fresh air and experience the great outdoors. However, the idea of sleeping in a tent can be very off putting for people that tend to suffer from back pain or neck pain. If this is you, then fear no more because PhysioRoom has the solution for you! Don’t let pain stop you from attending that music festival, or spending valuable time with your friends and family this summer!
A Foam Camping Mat For Back Pain When Camping
When reading camping and festival checklist guides, you may often see recommendations to bring a camping mat, or tent carpet, but what does this actually mean, and why is this so important?
A camping mat, or tent carpet is an extra layer of flooring for your tent. It allows you to sit and lie down in your tent, without the feeling of the cold, hard, uncomfortable ground beneath you. For anybody suffering from back pain, choosing the correct camping mat is crucial. The last thing you want to do is to aggravate the pain even further.
Our recommendation for the best camping mat would be these interlocking foam mats, made from shock-absorbing EVA foam. They provide a soft, comfortable base for your tent, which is perfect for both sleeping on, and relaxing on during the day. Providing a soft cushioned surface for your back while you sleep will help reduce back pain, allowing you to enjoy your camping experience to the fullest.
When interlocked together, these foam camping mats measure 23.25 ft². They are the perfect size for the average 1 person tent. If you are looking for tent flooring for a bigger sized tent, these interlocking foam mats are also available in larger sizes, covering surfaces of 46.50 ft² (ideal for a 3 Person Tent), 69.75 ft² (ideal for a 4 Person Tent), and 93 ft² (ideal for a 6 Person Tent).
With these tent carpet tiles, you will be able to enjoy a great night sleep without aggravating your back pain, or causing back stiffness.
Memory Foam Pillow For Neck Pain While Camping
Many people also complain of neck pain while camping. Bringing a memory foam pillow with you is a perfect solution to prevent you from experiencing neck pain when sleeping in your tent. By moulding to the contours of your neck, our memory foam pillows provide the perfect level of comfort to help relieve neck pain while you sleep.
Many festival essentials lists that you will read will recommend bringing a small travel pillow to help you save space in your bag. However, if you are concerned about neck pain, or not getting a good night’s sleep then ensuring you have a suitable pillow should be the main essential on your list. You can easily make room elsewhere without sacrificing comfort.
For many people, not getting a good night sleep can completely ruin the camping experience. If you are in pain when you wake up it can stop you from enjoying the rest of the trip. Therefore, it is important to take care and ensure you have a suitable pillow which helps target neck pain. This way, you can enjoy a good, comfortable, pain-free sleep.
