Here are the facts!
The most common myth about waterbeds
is the feeling of seasickness. With modern technology the amount of movement
in any waterbed can be reduced to over 95%. With the option of a 'dual
system' mattress kit, each mattress is independent of the other and can be
temperature controlled separately.
Millions of pounds are spent every
year by the food and leisure industries to promote a healthy diet and to look
after our own bodies. We spend around a third of our life in bed and
promotion in what is considered to be the best way to sleep is usually left
to the individual retailers. We may be all different heights shapes, sizes
and weights but every one of us needs sleep. Our best recommendations come
from existing waterbed users.
A waterbed offers a quality of life
not possible on any other sleep system as the entire body is totally and
evenly supported. The buoyancy of the water results in a natural support
without any unnecessary, uncomfortable pressure points as the water mattress
conforms to your own body shape thereby allowing your spine to fully relax
and take its natural shape giving you a comfortable night's sleep. You will
wake up in the morning relaxed and ready to face the challenges of the day.
Total body support is achieved however you lie - on your back, front or side.

Waterbeds are thermostatically heated. The warmth of a waterbed helps
your muscles to relax resulting in improved blood circulation while
alleviating sore or stiff muscles and joints. Better circulation means you
toss and turn less and get a better night's sleep. The even support and
adjustable warmth makes a waterbed an excellent choice.

Asthma and Allergies
|
|
Waterbeds
offer superior hygiene and are an excellent choice for people who suffer
with asthma, eczema or allergies. The house dust mite
has been identified as one of the trigger factors for people with these
conditions. The distressing symptoms are know to
be aggravated by an allergy to a substance in the droppings of the house
dust mite. For people with allergies, reducing the number
of mites droppings and dust in their
surroundings, can help reduce their symptoms. Dust mites collect most
significantly in mattresses. Everybody loses moisture and dead skin at
night while sleeping. Absorbed into an ordinary mattress it is the perfect
breeding ground for dust mites to multiply, building up year on year.
This cannot happen in a water mattress The water mattress covers can be
removed and washed at 60 degrees C at which temperature mites are killed.
Easy access to the mattress enables regular cleaning. A water mattress is
non-porous. Simply washing the mattress down eliminates the house dust
mites and skin debris from the waterbed.

Backache
|
|
A
waterbed can aid in the treatment of backache by enabling the
backache sufferer to sleep in a more comfortable and beneficial position.
A unique distribution of support for the body assures that all parts of
the body are evenly supported and that body weight is evenly distributed.
Floatation systems remove pressure from the spine allowing the spinal
muscles to fully relax. Doctors have also found that the addition of heat
speeds up the relaxation process and increases circulation to rejuvenate
problem areas.

Bedsores
|
|
Any
person immobilised and confined to bed for a
prolonged period is susceptible to bedsores (decubitus
ulcers). The tissue being pinned between hard underlying bone and the
surface of the bed for a long period of time causes these. The blood
tissues are squeezed, making circulation to the tissues difficult. If
cells are deprived of blood for a long period of time they eventually
die, causing bedsores. Therefore, treatment relies on reducing
these pressure points. A water mattress spreads the body weight evenly,
so blood can circulate freely right through the body. The constant warmth
of a waterbed further enhances this circulation.

to relax resulting in improved blood circulation while alleviating sore
of stiff muscles and joints. A benefit enjoyed buy

means you toss and turn less and get a better nights
sleep as your sub-conciouseness is allowed to
unwind. The even support and adjusable warmth
makes a waterbed an excellent choice.

Insomnia
|
|
This
common (non!) sleep problem is caused by stress,
discomfort, pain, light, noise etc. It is the inability to fall asleep
quickly due to mental of physical problems. So how can a waterbed help?
The short answer is:- relaxation. A waterbed is
not a cure but it can provide an environment that helps the problem cure
itself. Waterbeds conform perfectly to our bodies which are themselves 75% water. We literally 'float' on it so
are effectively semi-weightless: So we relax! Our body's temperature is
regulated by the bed's heater so it remains constant. You choose the
temperature to suit you: So you relax! We also need a comfortable, secure
place to help us shed the rigours of the day.
As a waterbed 'wraps' around you, cossetts you
and gives a tremendous feeling of security; you relax! With this improved
sleeping conditions, the chances of overcoming insomnia are far greater,
thus giving a much improved quality of life.
