Many people have already made the big transition to using adjustable beds, but the big question that others are still wondering is, why are adjustable beds so worth the investment?
The fact is, despite the popularity of flat beds these days, they simply aren’t conducive to a healthy night of sleep. On a basic level, flat beds don’t provide the support that your body needs in order to find a sleep position that is conducive to a good night’s sleep.
If you find yourself tossing and turning before you even fall asleep at night, or if you wake up in the middle of the night and can’t get comfortable, it may very well be a problem with your bed. Waking up in the morning with aches and pains is another sign that you could benefit from a bed upgrade.
Let’s take a quick look at some of the factors involved in sleep quality and the quality of bed you’re using: First, a normal bed isn’t able to provide support in areas where there are curves in your body. For most people, they notice that aches and pains most often show up around the neck, lower back, and knees. This is because the spine naturally creates curves, which are left unsupported by a normal mattress. This results in your muscles working, even while you’re sleeping, to keep your body in a suitable position. Upon waking, these muscles are strained and sore from the stress of your sleeping position.
With an adjustable bed, you can ensure that your mattress is curved perfectly to fit the curves of your body. Instead of tossing and turning, you’ll be able to find a sleep position that increases your comfort while sleeping. These beds are certainly more of an investment than regular beds, but they virtually pay for themselves when you begin experiencing more restful sleep and more productive hours awake.
