Tuning in to your local tv station and you will inevitably hear an ad for a mattress sale going on. While this is not outside the norm, you notice something new with the ad. The mattress is moving. A person’s head gets lifted up while trying out a new mattress, or you might see someone sitting in a position similar to a recliner. The voice over states how the adjustable base/mattress is the exact thing you need. The actors and actresses on tv all seem to be loving the experience. However, is it really worth it? Do you really need an adjustable base? The answer is, more than likely, you can find great benefits out of it.
I’m too young for that. That’s for my grandparents.
For most people, seeing an adjustable bed reminds them of hospital beds. Hospitals were the first pioneers of them putting them in every hospital room across the entire globe. Originally becoming popular after World War I, adjustable beds allowed injured soldiers to rest in comfortable positions from injury and surgery. Hospitals needed them to help provide the best comfort for their patients in order to get full restorative sleep and heal from their injuries. Not too long after that, people who had difficulty getting out of bed also found the adjustable bed to be beneficial. For many year after that, those proved to be the only consumers of it. Therefore, the stigma of an adjustable base being for the elderly or injured was born. Today, sleep experts are realizing that the same benefits the bases give to hospitals and the elderly are the same benefits that people need of all ages and health.
