We all cherish a deep, good and rejuvenating sleep – yet so many of us are sleep-deprived for a variety of reasons. Vencasa’s motorised adjustable beds offer a customised sleep solution to help you benefit the most from your sleep time.
Its latest range of motorised adjustable beds promise to make sleeping a healthy and restorative experience. They are designed to accommodate different positions as they recline and incline in two parts, the upper and lower part of the body, and combine the comfort and convenience of an electric bed with the health benefits of an ergonomic, orthopaedic bed.
A motorised adjustable sleep solution can distribute pressure evenly over the entire sleep surface reducing strain on the heart, circulatory system, neck pain, neck and shoulder tension, back pain, muscle, and joint pain and even asthma, acid reflux and snoring. This way, everyone can meet their specific health needs with an adjustable bed. The benefits are enormous: healthy posture, pressure relief, better circulation, and customised support where you need it.
With one simple touch of a button, you can raise your head, body and legs without creating pressure or any strain on your body, making it more comfortable to read, watch TV or lift your tired feet for better relaxation.
Some of these benefits include:
Back pain relief
An adjustable bed allows you to raise and support your shoulders into a position that closely matches the contours of your body and keeps your spine in a more natural position. Maintaining a slightly inclined position through the night relieves pressure on your spine that can cause it to compress during the night.
This can help to prevent conditions such as sciatica – a condition where the sciatic nerve gets trapped near the base of the spine (this nerve controls most signals heading between the brain and the limbs and is very painful when put under pressure).
By supporting the base of the spine it is possible to keep the spine aligned and help prevent trapped nerves and release those that are currently lodged. An adjustable bed eliminates the need for piling up pillows to elevate the upper body – which can cause neck ache and headaches.
Limit snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea
Snoring is the result of the windpipe being slightly closed from the weight of your neck, while in the sleeping position. Elevating the head and shoulders alters the direction of gravity and reduces the obstruction of your windpipe, thus reducing snoring.
Obstructive sleep apnoea is a condition where breathing is briefly interrupted or becomes very shallow during sleep. These breathing pauses can last from 10 to 20 seconds and can occur up to hundreds of times in the night. Typically the sufferer is jolted out of a natural sleep rhythm, which results in them spending less time in deep and more time in light sleep.
Raising the head and shoulders with an adjustable bed can have a positive effect on sleep apnoea in the same way it alleviates snoring, i.e. it alters the direction of gravity and the soft tissues in the back of the throat are less likely to obstruct breathing.
Relief in pregnancy
Back ache, snoring and swollen legs and feet are all common complaints in pregnancy. Adjustable bed bases can alleviate these symptoms, and can provide a more comfortable resting position for women while their bodies are not quite “their own”.
