Air Mattresses Explained
The concept of an air bed is simple. When we lie down to sleep what the body needs is a sleep surface which will allow all the muscles and joints to relax. In a typical spring mattress the coils push up against the body to support it. This design was a great improvement over hard cotton and horsehair mattresses of earlier days, but it still created pressure points in the shoulders, hips and knees. These pressure points, in turn, cause a lack of proper alignment of the spine and also cut off circulation, causing us to toss and turn on an average of 50 to 70 times per night! No wonder so many people do not sleep well!
Sleep on Air with an Air Mattress
An air bed literally allows us to sleep on air. The air mattress consists of a very strong air chamber attached to a powerful air pump, which is operated by a remote control. We lie down on the air beds, press the "inflate" buttons and we are floating on air. Press the "deflate" button on the air bed and the air chamber perfectly conforms to every curve and contour of our anatomy, exerting an even pressure over the whole body. There are no pressure points, no constriction of circulation within air mattresses and best of all - the entire spine can align itself naturally when you sleep on an air mattress! With air beds we are cradled in comfort.
Airbed
owners report they fall asleep faster, toss and turn much less and wake
up feeling truly refreshed -- ready
for dynamic activity.
What could be an improvement to
this design?
The ability for partners in the same
bed to be able to adjust their side of the bed to the exact firmness/softness
that is just right for them on any given night.
In all our queen and king size
beds Ultimate Sleep offers twin air chambers so that both partners
have the freedom to adjust their side of the bed to their personal
preference.
