Good quality memory foam mattresses are made up of layered materials in which memory foam can provide high levels of support and pressure-relieving performance. This supportive action means that it's easy to find a comfortable sleeping position and remain in it for the entire night, as your body is supported where it needs it most. It results in great quality sleep, with no waking in the middle of the night due to discomfort. With great quality sleep comes a whole host of benefits during the day, with increased levels of energy, productiveness and a real feeling of rejuvenation. Sleep is essential to your overall wellbeing, and without regularly getting the required level of sleep you can soon start to suffer health problems. The way in which sleep is interlinked with health is known as sleep hygiene', and relates to the overall effects that sleep can have on both the body and mind.
Memory foam mattresses are a great way to ensure that you have good sleep hygiene. At its essence, positive sleep hygiene is achieved by getting good quality restorative sleep, night after night. With their high performance support, memory foam mattresses encourage good sleep, and eliminate the hallmarks of poor sleep hygiene, namely difficulty in finding comfortable sleeping positions, regular wakening during the night, feeling excessively tired in the morning and generally having trouble sleeping.
While they offer supreme sleep quality for everyone, memory foam mattresses also deliver lots of health benefits for people suffering from a range of medical conditions.
A key benefit of memory foam mattress' layered composition is that there is no interior space for bedbugs to inhabit. Traditional pocket sprung mattresses have open spaces in their bodies that provide the perfect breeding ground for bedbugs. Even in extremely hygienic bedrooms, with regular washing of the bed linen, bedbugs can be rife inside these types of mattresses. Bedbugs can cause allergic reactions as well as respiratory problems in some people, and are notoriously difficult to deal with. Memory foam mattresses avoid the bedbug problem by literally giving them no room to develop. The solid core interior of memory foam mattresses, made up with the tightly layered materials, prevents the habitation offered by the open spaces of pocket sprung mattresses.
This hygienic prevention of bedbugs means that memory foam mattresses are an ideal choice for anyone who suffers from dust allergies, or respiratory conditions such as asthma. When breathing in close proximity to a mattress, as is unavoidable, this can be a tangible relief.
Sufferers of back and joint pain, such as arthritis or similar conditions, often find that memory foam mattresses bring relief and allow for a restful night's sleep.
