A good night's sleep is essential for optimal health. If you arose from your bed last night well-rested, then you have your mattress manufacturer to thank for that wonderful night of sleep. Good quality sleep has so many essential benefits that you won't go wrong by investing in a good, premium mattress. 

With advanced technology available to promote heart health, you don't want to miss out on obtaining these benefits with a substandard mattress that doesn't support your lifestyle. The proper sleep posture can resolve so many health ailments:

  • Reduce inflammation 

  • Lose weight 

  • Improve memory 

  • Increase alertness 

  • Reduce Stress 

  • Body health repair 

The mattress industry has evolved since the early 1900s. It was at that time that Berliner Heinrich Westphal introduced the coil spring mattresses to the market. Originally designed for horse-drawn carriages, sleepers could now sleep on a firm mattress that supported the back and provided compression. Presently, so many new mattress technologies are now available for consumers to select for their personal health. 

 Foam 

Today's modern beds are made from viscoelastic memory foam technology as a replacement for the modern coil spring mattress. Sleeping would be much more comfortable if you were just a blob of muscle and tissue. 

Since your body must support its skeleton, the memory foam mattress adjusts to the contours of your body, while returning to its original shape when you move around the bed forcefully. The memory foam bed reduces symptoms related to arthritis, back pain, and leg cramps. 

That being said, the vast majority of the foams today are derived from petroleum ingredients, polyurethane, and other varieties of chemicals. However, plant-based foams are made from soybean and vegetable oils. Known for its antifungal and hypoallergenic properties, you may find traditional plant-based foams infused with other materials like charcoal and graphene more suitable for your tastes. 

 Adjustable Bed 

Physicians have long heralded the benefits of the adjustable bed. Medical professionals have noted that their patients recover much quicker from their illnesses with this bed type. You can use the motorized switch to adjust the head or the foot of the bed while manipulating several zones on the bed simultaneously. 

This will allow blood flow to return gradually to the heart while reducing inflammation in the lower extremities. Sleepers will also benefit from reduced pressure in the lumbar region. Senior citizens will be able to get out of bed more easily without additional support.

 Copper Bed 

The copper-infused bed keeps mattresses pristine for longer periods of time. After several years of use, the standard mattress can hide over 16 million forms of bacteria. The copper-infused mattress has antibacterial properties, and it is antimicrobial. Copper promotes good health. It will keep away viruses, mold, and bacteria that are especially prone to populate in humid climates. This is terrific for sleepers who live in warm environments. 

 Light and Heated Mattress 

Everyone knows how dangerous it can be to get up in the middle of the night to grab a snack and then trip over a child's toy. The lighted mattress will eliminate such perils. You can have low lighting installed inside your mattress to prevent accidents and bumps in the night. Install heat sensors within your bed to provide warmth during cold temperatures and harsh winters.
