SOME ADVISES TO CHOOSE A GOOD MATTRESS
 
EDUCATE TO SLEEP

Learn how to sleep. It sounds strange, but not all of us can sleep in a right and efficacious way. Sleep, indeed, must be educate, especially if there are unsafe attitudes and a sense of uneasiness.

There are few rules that, if respected, can grant a better nightly and lasting sleep; keep a regular sleeping phase, respect fixed times even for dinners which do not have to be too heavy in the evening. (due to digestion sleep is delayed).

In the same way a bad sleep can bring contrary effects: it weighs down the bony and muscular structure with tension, it hinders the tissue regeneration, it tires metabolism and, in the end, it prevents the sense of mental lightness and serenity when awaken.

Insomnia is really the worst experience: it might be caused by unsuitable or wrong supports. In order to get a good sleep you have to respect some basic conditions such as a comfortable environment and most of all a right mattress: stable and ergonomic, soft, elastic, hygienic and anti allergy, thermo-regulated and perspiring. Of course quietness and serenity, sports and a correct feeding are really important.

SOME ADVISES TO CHOOSE A GOOD MATTRESS
Different kinds of mattresses offer different kinds of supports. The main qualities to consider are foundering, comfort and elastic responsiveness. The results of these parameters are given by tests and indicated on the label. It always important to verify them through a personal test.

The best mattress is the one that respects the typical “S” conformation of the backbone. Latex is the best material because millimetre on millimetre it complies with the body and allows our body and muscles to reach a complete relax. 

Thank to the human warmth Memory Foam adapts itself to the body and keeps the human shape in order to get a complete relax as well. For people who love other supports the best solution is the one with single packed springs mattress. 

Every spring is independently packed and it only moves when presses so that it can adapt to our body line. For people who love a rigid and orthopaedic mattress, we suggest the one with steel springs.

Memory Foam is a viscous elastic foam that can compress and slowly return to the original position. When applied to the sleeping flat position you can get a mattress studied to adjust to body weigh and warmth with a complete and comfortable support which helps to get a better sleep beside a fluent blood circulation.

This mattress grants a better air circulation between body and sleeping surface avoiding warm and sweating problems.

HOW OFTEN DO WE HAVE TO CHANGE IT?
The mattress should be changed every 7 years due to the use and hygienic and bacteria problems. There are few mattresses that can last even up to ten years.

ALLERGY PROBLEMS
Advisable for those people are latex mattress and pillows made of Memory Foam or anti mite treated, with removable and washable cover.

MAINTENANCE
In the first 3 months mattress should be turned head/feet and upside down only twice a month to get a proper balance.
Never roll or fold mattresses to avoid internal breaks. Never wet or clean the mattresses with steam machines to avoid the proliferation of mites inside. When removable the cover can be washed in the washing machine or at the cleaner’s.
