How Can I Get A Good Night's Sleep?
Not only will your back be better, but also the rest of your body and mind will be much improved with a visco-elastic mattress.
The healthiest, most comfortable mattress is clearly one made of visco-elastic material not one with coil springs, air inside or latex. There is
lots of proof of this fact from reasearch done in hospitals, clinics
and most significantly perhaps the exploding sales of these mattresses.
Sales have been declining for some years of mattresses with coil springs, while air and latex have increased only by a small percentage. Not the
large percentage gain of visco-elastic.
There is good reason for that development. Visco-elastic material, developed for the astronauts by NASA, conforms to the body and eliminates pressure points.
So you sleep better, likely deeper, as you don't turn as often as on other mattresses.
Some might say the most comfortable mattress for you is the one that feels the best, but there is more to it than that. Sales of coil spring mattresses are declining and the sales of mattresses with visco-elastic inside are exploding. There are good reasons for that and it is clearly factual.
Industry research has been released showing a dramatic increase in sales of visco-elastic mattresses.
One major brand is called Tempur-Pedic.
Such mattresses mold to the body and thus eliminate pressure points that coil spring mattresses in effect create. When the body is contoured in a visco-elastic mattress and there are no pressure points, one tends to sleep better, more deeply because you don't toss and turn as much.
This amazing material is almost indestructible and so manufacturers of these mattresses can offer a 20-year limited warranty, whereas most other mattress manufacturers offer only 10.
True, visco-elastic mattresses may cost a bit more, but they last longer. It is rare for them to develop sagging or body impressions. Typically, after use the mattress comes back to its original shape and this is why some refer to the material as "memory foam."
Do yourself a big favor and look into the mattresses proven to give you and your back the best night's sleep possible. These mattresses are available in stores all around the U.S. and many stores in other countries, as well.
