So lately I've been trying to find the right combination of hardness/softness for my mattress and pillow. The reasoning behind it is because I tend to wake up after a night of rest with both a sore neck and back. Usually after I've done some stretches and started moving around the aches go away. However, lately they've gotten worse and after a trip to my physiotherapist, I've decided to change it up.

Right now I have a medium hardness mattress with a pillow top and my pillow is Tempur-Pedic's Sympony-variant, also in a medium hardness.

My issue is, without having to spend tons of money buying different combinations of hard and soft, how do you determine what's right for you?
