Top 5 Reasons an Adjustable Bed Can Help Improve your Sleep

Completing the recommended eight hours sleep seems to get harder as you grow older. Even if you do manage to get your required amount of rest, there still might be a few factors that accompany ageing which can result to a poor sleep quality. If you are currently experiencing this dilemma, reconsidering where you sleep and switching to the use of an adjustable bed may be a better choice.

Whilst it is true that adjustable beds are most beneficial to people suffering from mobility issues, there are also a number of reasons why it is perfect for older people to achieve a proper, comfortable sleep.

1. Maximises comfort

Even if you are not struggling with any kind of medical condition, adjustable electric beds can provide you with a whole variety of benefits for maximum comfort. Traditional beds restrict you to a horizontal sleeping position which will force you to move constantly to find a comfortable position, resulting in a bad night’s sleep. With adjustable beds, you get much better rest with just the touch of a button.

2. Relieves pain

If you are suffering from muscle or joint pains, you probably know that getting to sleep can become a real chore. Fortunately, adjustable beds have many health benefits, including a set of controls that will allow you to change the position of your bed to ensure that you have the support you require where you need it most. Adjustable beds can give you relief if you have body aches and pains from conditions like:

• Muscle strains and injuries
• Muscular fatigue pain
• Nighttime heartburn
• Lower back pain
• Leg swelling
• Fibromyalgia
• Gastric reflux
• Hiatus hernia

3. Improves breathing

Having a cold requires you to keep your head in an upright position to relieve the congestion and help you breathe better. With a regular bed, you will have to build a tower of pillows to accomplish this which can disturb your sleep when you try to keep them in place. Adjustable beds, on the other hand, provide you with the ability to remain in an upright, comfortable position with just a click of a button.

4. Stops snoring

Snoring happens when your soft tissues and tongue narrow your airway when you lie back. This can be avoided by elevating your head and allow air to freely flow into your airways.

5. Helps with insomnia

Insomnia is a product of constant stress which can be hard to combat. Since adjustable beds can be programmed into many different positions, people struggling with insomnia can finally find the perfect position that will allow them to fall asleep faster and avoid tossing and turning all night.
