You can’t beat a good night’s sleep – it always leaves you feeling fit, thinking sharply and happy!
The foundation of good sleep is a comfortable bed and the right mattress. It can be the difference between a restorative night’s sleep and poor quality sleep that results in tiredness and fatigue.
Research shows that sleeping on an uncomfortable bed could rob you of up to an hour’s sleep – yet the deterioration may be so gradual and invisible that many people fail to make the connection between an uncomfortable bed and poor sleep. You may need a new mattress
Beds don’t last forever. Even if it looks okay, it may not be giving you the support or comfort you need for a good night’s sleep. A mattress’s life span is affected by several factors such as the quality, care and amount you use it (e.g. reading, watching TV and sleeping each night versus occasional use of a spare bed). Changes in lifestyle (marriage, new home) and in our bodies (losing or gaining weight, ageing, etc) can also necessitate a change of bed.
A few points worth considering:
* Have you had your mattress more than seven years?
* Do you wake up with stiffness and/or aches and pains?
* Are you sleeping as well as you did a year ago?
* Have you had a better night’s sleep in a bed other than yours?
* Does your mattress show signs of visible wear and tear (is lumpy or it sags)? There are literally thousands of beds from which to choose and there is no such thing as the perfect type of bed for a particular condition or situation (e.g. an ideal bed for a back pain sufferer may differ to a light sleeper for instance).
There are a host of bed and mattress options available to suit all budgets, ranging from entry level to premium luxury.
We are here to help guide you through the process and help you make the right choice for your requirements.
Ultimately, only you can make the final, important decision – so take your time, use the information to hand and make it wisely.
Finally, enjoy the best night's sleep, you deserve it!
