Health Benefits of an Adjustable Bed

Health Benefits of an Adjustable Bed

Adjustable beds often conjure images of hospital beds – large and chunky with plastic railings, wires sticking out all over the place. It’s not a pretty image. But this is not the case for the residential adjustable bases we offer here at Majestic Mattress. Paired with an organic latex mattress, these beds look sleek in the bedroom – they can fool any eye. These adjustable beds offer daily conveniences alongside health benefits, making these beds perfect for those of us who suffer from pain or other sleep related issues. All of our adjustable beds are customizable for your specific needs. Here are some reasons why an adjustable bed could be right for you:

Health Benefits 

As we all know, adjustable beds are often used for health reasons. They offer ergonomic sleeping positions that aid in your body’s healing process. These beds tend to multiple health concerns, but here are a few common ones:

Chronic Pain

Because you can adjust your bed into whatever angles suit you best, you can alleviate pain and pressure around certain parts of your body. If you suffer from lower back pain, for instance, by sleeping in a slightly inclined position with support under your knees, you can reduce pressure from this area and wake up without your usual aches and pains.

If your chronic pain keeps you in bed for long periods of time, an adjustable bed can prevent circulation and respiration issues that come when lying flat for too long. Being able to move into sitting positions keeps your circulatory system happy.

Snoring and Sleep Apnea

Snoring is caused when air is blocked between your nose or mouth and your lungs. Gravity certainly doesn’t help open your airways when you’re lying flat on your back. By adjusting your bed to a slight incline, you reduce gravity’s effect on your windpipe. This increase in airflow helps those with sleep apnea get an uninterrupted sleep.

Acid Reflux / Heartburn

Going to bed with a full stomach is a scary thought for those of us who suffer from acid reflux. The acid in your stomach can splash up more easily when you lie down flat. An adjustable bed can alleviate this pain if you sleep with a slight incline.

Customization

All adjustable beds are customizable for your individual needs. Here are some of your options:

  • USB port
  • Under bed lighting
  • Massage
  • Wireless remote
  • Lumbar support
