When it comes to your sleep, nothing is more important than getting not just enough, but good quality sleep, especially if you have back or neck problems. With the innovation of memory foam taking center stage in the early 90's, people worldwide have touted memory foam mattress benefits. The foam is made from viscoelastic and is highly energy absorbent and soft, which molds to the pressure of your body from heat and pressure to create a comfortable material in which to sleep.
Benefits of memory foam to your health
Among the benefit that bears its name--memory foam--there are a number of other benefits that can contribute to better health, and they include:
1. Helps in the relief of allergies--since it's made from polyurethane, which are inorganic fibers, memory foam can prevent dust mites from settling in because there is nothing in the mattress for them to feed on like there is with cotton fibers.
2. Can help with individuals who suffer with sleep apnea, a condition that causes air flow to be cut off during sleep, causing a person to stop breathing; this condition can be dangerous if not properly treated. Utilizing memory foam can help elevate the person's head for a proper and healthy pattern of breathing.
3. Helps keep spine aligned--using memory foam can support your back, thus allowing for your spine to stay healthy.
4. Memory foam mattress benefits also include less pain, soreness, and body aches, because it displaces pressure along the spine, relieving tender pressure points
5. More restful sleep because as the body's temperature increases, the memory foam adheres to your body heat and weight.
How does memory foam help me sleep better?
If you worry about tossing and turning because your mattress is either lumpy, too soft, or too hard, the memory foam is just your ticket to a better night's sleep. The mattress "remembers" your sleeping position, so as soon as you fall asleep, it contours to your body and stays that way all through the night.
An interesting fact is that women's hips are proportioned differently than a man's, so a super-firm mattress can cause women's hips to elevate during the night, which throws the spine out of alignment; this can cause or make back problems worse. Memory foam will adjust to your particular body type so you sleep in a better position. The same goes for men. Because they have broader shoulders, a super-soft mattress may cause them alignment problems, as well.
Memory foam mattress benefits side sleepers too, since a shoulder and limb is under the weight of the body, while the other is hanging, throwing off your hips, along with your spine. Memory foam will keep your hips supported, while keeping the spine straight.
Memory foam is also good for the following conditions:
- Fibromyalgia
- Scoliosis
- Arthritis
- Recovery after major surgery
- Long-term bed rest
- Sciatica issues
- Sleep Apnea
- Insomnia
- Bursitis
- Spondylosis
The goal of healthy sleep is geared towards body support and comfort, and having a mattress that is soft and pliable and conforms to your body is the greatest of all memory foam mattress benefits.
