Adjustable beds have been around for a while, but the modern technology we now have puts them on another level. Every tech-savvy (and even not-so-tech-savvy) person dreams of owning a bed like that.
Your adjustable bed doesn’t need to look out of place. Think of it as a luxurious, customizable bed system that can fit into your current décor. Consider this: queen size (or any size you prefer) bed base supporting two independent twin XL mattresses with their very own adjustable features for your unique sleeping needs so that you can both enjoy your own piece of sleep paradise.
Why should you sleep on an adjustable bed? The list of benefits might surprise you:
- Joint pain and inflammation relief
- Reduced disruptions from snoring
- Reduce or eliminate acid reflux
- Sinus relief
- Cozier reading or working in bed
- Easing insomnia
- Enhanced circulation
Once you’ve purchased your bed, you will wonder how you ever lived without one!
1. Joint Pain and Inflammation Relief
Medication, exercise, and diet alone cannot relieve symptoms from arthritis and other joint-related pain. If you sleep for 7 hours, that’s a very long time to be lying in an uncomfortable position, no matter how much foam covers your mattress top. When you can adjust your bed to that perfect position where all your achy body parts are comfortably supported, especially when there is a flare-up in hips or knees, you will sleep better and wake up refreshed. Even if your partner may not have the same issues, you will both love the flexibility when you need it!
2. Reduced Disruptions from Snoring
How many times have you heard people say they couldn’t sleep because their partner sounded like a freight train? Snoring can have a variety of causes, ranging from stress to seasonal allergies to even sleep apnea. All of them lead to the obstruction of airways, resulting in snoring.
If you've got an adjustable bed, nights won't be a problem anymore. With its help, you can prop it to the point where your (or your partner’s) throat feels comfortable with less constriction surrounding it, and both of you get a peaceful night's rest.
3. Reduce or Eliminate Acid Reflux
We know snacking at bedtime is not ideal, as we want our bodies to be focused on slowing down for sleep and not digesting. But on those nights you can’t resist, you can raise the upper part of the adjustable bed to allow for an easier digestion process and avoid acid reflux symptoms.
4. Sinus Relief
It must now be clear to you that by adjusting your bed to that perfect angle, breathing improves. Indeed, sinus pressure tends to lessen as you raise your upper body, as the entire anatomy of the sinus cavity shifts when your head and shoulders are elevated. It helps mucus drain better rather than pool at the base of the throat, which generally causes coughing and of course, interrupted sleep.
Equally, asthma sufferers will agree that there is a lot less pressure on the lungs and heart when lying on a slight angle, resulting in less constriction in the airway, improving overall sleep experience as a result.
5. Cozier Reading or Working in Bed
This is a favourite pastime for many who enjoy their adjustable bed! Reading in that comfy position (like readers at the beach do!) makes the experience all that much cozier. Similarly, bringing out the laptop to do some last-minute work before that important morning presentation is better if you’re able to allow your body to relax. Whether you're lying down or sitting upright, an adjustable bed ensures optimal comfort and support for your back and legs. You can find the perfect position to suit your needs and enjoy a truly restful experience.
6. Easing Insomnia
Tossing and turning during sleep is not only disruptive and frustrating to you, but to your partner as well. An adjustable bed allows you to be at your most comfortable, easing your body into a completely relaxed state. Whether it is by raising your upper body or supporting your knees, you can customize your preferred sleep position so that your body finds that sweet spot to drift into dreamland.
7. Enhanced Circulation
Mattress technology has come a long way, now better designed to support your trigger points (shoulders, back and knees) – but the result is that you are still, essentially, flat on your back (or side, or stomach), which is not ideal for circulation. An adjustable bed can gently lift and support your knees to that position that relieves that pull on your lower back so that circulation can be improved – no mountain of pillows required, no numbness or pinching! Imagine sleeping with all your curves and joints supported. If you have just had hip or back surgery, lifting and supporting your knees will help rehabilitation and speed up your recovery process, and you’ll never want to sleep flat again!
