“There is no sunrise so beautiful that it is worth waking me up to see it,” Mindy Kaling exclaims in her most recent book. Perhaps her need for sleep is indicative of poor sleep quality, often brought on by a crappy mattress. When people sleep, whether they know it or not, they are constantly changing sleep positions to avoid body tension. The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) even says that the average mattress puts 50 pounds of pressure on a persons back. In addition to these, below are three reasons to seriously consider an adjustable bed to address sleep issues.
Chronic Pain
The ACA also reports that 15% of Americans suffer from chronic pain that is brought on by their sleep positions. Spines are shaped like an S while our mattresses are often shaped like a straight line. These incongruous shapes create back pain that can be avoided, thanks to adjustable beds. Adjustable beds promote better sleep by more closely mimicking the bodies form.
General Well-Being
Those who suffer from sleep-related pain and illness are less likely to be active and fit. Think about it – who wants to run or exercise when battling chronic fatigue? There are many natural ways to sleep better – melatonin is not always the answer. The best adjustable bed alleviates pressure from areas of the body that need it most and help you be the best, well-rested version of yourself.
Spare the Chair
Do you find yourself nodding off in the living room recliner? Maybe that is because the form your recliner offers lends itself better to sleep! Adjustable beds promote better sleep by giving you the chance to change the structure of your bed to just what your body needs. Once you have a more ergonomic bed, you’ll surely get more rest.
When you get better sleep, you are taking the first step to a more vibrant healthy life. Workouts become easier and more productive. Your more alert at work. You and everyone around you will appreciate the new, well-rested version of yourself.
