Adjustable Beds

Benefits of adjustable beds

Adjustable beds can help with a wide range of health issues and ailments. Being able to adjust your position for sleep can relieve aches and pains, make getting in and out of bed easier and help you get a comfortable night's sleep.

Nowadays, electric adjustable beds don't look like they've come out of a hospital. These beds are available in a variety of styles and materials, so if you need an adjustable bed for your health, it won't ruin your décor. Because of the range of styles, there are many affordable electric beds, as well as those that will make a statement in the bedroom.

Our adjustable beds are available in sizes from single to super king, so whether you are looking for one person or an elderly couple, our mobility beds can help with the aches and pains of later life or disabilities.

Adjustable beds for the elderly

Sleeping on a slight incline with the knees elevated supports the natural curve of the spine, relieving pressure points and keeping the muscles relaxed. Life in later years can also be improved with adjustable beds for the elderly. As time goes on, our muscles can become stiff or weak and many people struggle to get out of bed. An adjustable bed can bring you to a sitting up position, so you can easily swing your legs off the side of the bed without having to pull yourself up.

Being able to change the position in which you sleep and relieve pressure points can help with aches and pains too. This can be especially useful for back pain when sleeping. However, it's important that you get a comfortable mattress to help with this too.

Electric beds for disabled people

It's not only the elderly who can benefit from an electric adjustable bed, but this type of bed can also help with various disabilities.

Some disabilities may cause you to be in bed for longer periods. As these electric beds can change position, you can ensure you are moving in the bed and getting into comfier positions when you need to. This can also relieve aches and pains.

Adjustable mattresses

Choosing a mattress to go with your adjustable bed is especially important. You’ll need a mattress that won't be damaged by all the moving around and is still comfortable for your joints. There are two mattress types we recommend for this:

In pocket spring mattresses, each spring is contained in its own pouch and works individually to react to your body shape. These mattresses spread your weight out evenly, reducing pressure on your joints and providing excellent support.

Memory foam mattresses mould to the shape of your body so you feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud. These are ideal for those who require less intensive support for back problems but still require an adjustable bed for mobility reasons.
