It’s estimated that up to 70% of adults suffer from sleep issues on a regular basis. The causes of this poor sleep vary wildly - insomnia, snoring, asthma, back pain - the list is almost endless. People go to great lengths to combat these issues. The market is awash with all kinds of pills and programs that promise to remedy this or that issue.
But sometimes the simplest answer is the most effective. Instead of taking a pill for insomnia, popping on a nose plug to prevent snoring, and then needing a massage to combat back pain - there’s a way to tackle all these issues at once. Electric beds have been growing ever-more accessible over recent years, and are proving popular for their ability to help with a wide variety of sleep issues.
With the release of Flexispot’s new adjustable electric bed, let’s take a look at all the features of this sleep game-changer and all the ways it can benefit your sleep hygiene.
Customise your sleep
Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to a good night’s sleep, but traditional bed frames are not designed to accomodate this. With an electric bed, you can tailor your set up on a night by night basis to suit the sleep you need. With head adjustment that ranges from 0 to 60 degrees, you can adjust your position to fit your body’s needs. Raising the head can reduce snoring and sleep apnea, and is perfect for accomodating the discomfort experienced by physiotherapy patients and pregnant people.
Raising the head in this way is also great for relieving bodily tension, and better distrubing weight throughout the body. Less pressure on the spine throughout the night is the perfect solution for sufferers of chronic back pain, reducing the stress placed on an already sensitive back.
Enjoy greater comfort
Especially with the recent shift towards remote working, many people are now spending a far greater portion of their time at home. With all this time at home, it helps to create separation between our sleep, relaxation, and work. An electric bed allows you to adjust your mattress into a sitting position once you’re done with sleep for the day. With a head incline of up to 60 degrees, you can find the perfect angle for whatever other activities you might want to do in comfort once you’ve woken up. Watching tv, reading, or checking your laptop can be done with ease, all without the neck strain that usually comes as a result of trying to work or relax from bed. With an adjustable frame, your bed becomes so much more than a place reserved for sleeping - it’s a perfect spot for relaxation throughout the day.
Durability
Traditional bedframes are often lacking in durability. Especially after extended use, planks tend to break or weaken, and the bed quickly loses stability. These durable electric beds are made of solid metal and have 6 sturdy legs propping up their base - so you can forget about cracking planks or wobbly legs. What’s more, the motor built into the bed is designed to be noiseless, meaning that you can soundly adjust your comfort without bothering anyone else trying to catch sleep around you.
Sleek design
Although always a luxury, the electric beds of the past did tend to look quite like hospital beds. However, thanks to innovation in design, the problem of looking like a hospital bed is but a faint memory. Modern electric beds feature sleek steel frames that complement any modern home interior. Far from being bulky pieces of equipment that take up valuable space, these modern adjustable beds can be raised above the ground so as to allow for ample storage space underneath. This way you can save space while gaining imeasurable comfort. With this new design, you don’t have to choose between comfort and style - you can have the benefits of both at the same time.
Accommodate your personal preference
You might think that opting for an electric bed is a privelege only afforded to those who sleep alone. What if one person, for example, wishes to stay up reading and the other wants to go to sleep? Well, with this new modern design - that problem becomes a thing of the past. The Split King Bed model allows for two separate mattress systems that can be adjusted unique to one another. If you suffer from snoring, say, and your partner has neck pain, you can set your individual mattresses to different heights to accommodate your own comfort. Electric beds not only improve the quality of your own sleep, but how couples sleep together with a level of customisation that was previously impossible.
Offering a wide range of benefits to health, interior design, and the versatility of your private space - the electric bed is truly a game changer worth considering.
