The secret to an air beds high comfort factor is its ability
to spread the bodies weight and contact with the mattress in
a more even fashion. Traditional mattress designs are more rigid
and can force certain points of the body in contact with the
mattress to absorb the entire weight of the body, creating concentrated
pressure points that are uncomfortable and often out of natural
alignment. Air beds have the ability to mold and shape to the
contour of a sleeping body and were originally designed for hospitals
and medical environments where higher levels of back support
and reduced pressure points on the body were needed. Now this
technology can be invited into your own bedroom to create a more
comfortable sleeping environment.
An air bed is basically a mattress that contains air bladders
instead of hard steel springs. Air beds can often also be adjusted
to suit the particular support needs of partners that share
a bed, as each side usually has individual air bladder controls
that can be adjusted. The adjustable dual air support chambers
can provide just the right amount of back support and firmness
on one side of a bed without disturbing the other side. Sleeping
on an air bed can also provide better spinal alignment through
the night, giving you a very comfortable and restful sleep. Several air beds are endorsed by the Congress of Chiropractic
State Associations as good for people with back backs and back
support problems. In addition, air beds can help people with
allergies by reducing the available nesting ground for dust
mites. The traditional coil mattress is usually the largest
breeding and nesting ground of dust mites in a household and
can contain as many as 5 million dust mites feeding on skin
particles that have filtered into the inner mattress core.
With an air bed mattress system you do not have this problem,
which can help improve your breathing while asleep. |
