The Benefits of a Memory Foam Mattress

Mattresses are vitally important for a good night’s rest. A good night’s rest is vital for anyone and their mental health, physical health and productivity. That is why it is so important to invest in a very good and compatible mattress – it is literally needed to ensure you live the happiest and healthiest life that you can. Memory foam mattresses are a very good and reputable type of mattress that you should really consider, especially if you have health issues, such as back problems. This article will deal with exactly what memory foam mattresses are, as well as why they can benefit you.

So, what are memory foam mattresses?

Memory foam mattresses are made from exactly what the title implies. The memory foam material is highly durable and soft. This mattress combines a layer of memory foam with springs. The foam then responds to your body heat and will soften and mould to your shape. However, if you are worried about it staying that way, there is no need as the foam will bounce back into shape very slowly. Eventually it gets to a point where the mattress will remember the shape of your body and retain your preferred sleeping position.

This innovative material, also known as visco-elastic foam was actually designed by the American company NASA in the nineteen sixties. It was originally designed to ensure that astronauts would survive the extreme pressure they would face when exiting and entering the earth’s atmosphere. However, the potential of memory foam could not be denied and soon it was being incorporated into the use of mattresses.

What are the benefits of memory foam mattresses?

Optimum movement: A huge benefit of memory foam mattresses is the absorbent properties of the material. These mattresses absorb motion and therefore isolate the impact instead of transferring it, like ordinary mattresses do. This means that if you have a partner that is particularly restless in their sleep then they can move around all they like without jostling you too much – or vice versa.

Pressure point relief: Memory foam mattresses are designed to evenly distribute your body weight to relieve any unwanted pressure on the densest parts of your body. This can help your blood circulation throughout the night as well as easing whatever aches and pains that may keep you up at night.

Dust mite resistant: A memory foam mattress boasts (as already mentioned) a visco-elastic structure that is all but invulnerable to dust mite penetration. There are simply not enough places for the dust to hide or collate. This may not seem like a big deal, but it can drastically reduce allergic symptoms, which encourages a healthier and easier nights sleep.

Spine alignment and general back support: As stated throughout the entirety of this article, memory foam mattresses support the users’ body by distributing the weight of the sleeper evenly across the space. The foam will contort to the shape of the body and allows the spine to stay in a neutral position. Other mattresses are not like that. On materials like springs, the weight is typically concentrated on the parts of the body that are in contact with the mattress, that can cause wear on the mattress as well as aches and pains within the body. Spinal problems included.

Accommodates different positions: People can sleep in a variety of weird and wonderful positions. On stiffer, more traditional mattresses, this can cause a strain on the body. However, you do not need to worry about this with a memory foam mattress. The mattress will mould to any position.
