Reclining Beds in the UK
Reclining beds are becoming more and more popular in the UK. Suitable for everyone, these aids can provide users with fantastic benefits…and a great night’s sleep!
What is a Reclining Bed?
Reclining beds, also known as adjustable beds, can be adjusted to fit several positions. Originally used for hospital patients, these beds are now available to all and are especially suited to the elderly or those with mobility issues!
How do Reclining Beds Work?
With the press of a button, you can adjust the height and angle of the lower and upper parts of the bed. Doing this helps individuals to find the best sleeping position possible, providing support and comfort.
The functionality of these beds also means you can sleep with your legs raised if you wish. Alternatively, if you’re a side sleeper, you can raise both your head and legs to keep your spine aligned and regulate blood flow. Ultimately, the versatility of these beds allows you to try several positions, aiding you to get to sleep.
What Makes Reclining Beds so Popular?
Reclining beds are becoming popular as they go above and beyond the functionality of a regular bed. For example, if you struggle to sleep in a regular bed, there’s not much you can do to improve your situation beyond toss and turn!
What are the Benefits of an Adjustable Bed?
Beyond providing a comfortable place to sleep, reclining beds can help to improve your health and happiness.
Superior Comfort at Home
The versatility of options presented by an adjustable bed mean you have much more choice in finding a comfortable sleeping position. Plus, an adjustable bed will always keep you supported, allowing you to sleep comfortably without placing too much pressure on your spine and joints.
Improved Independence at Home
Reclining beds provide the elderly – or those with low mobility- more independence and support at home. This is because mobility issues can make it difficult to get in and out of bed unassisted.
Alternatively, adjustable reclining beds can help provide additional assistance, if needed. By lowering and raising the bed, you can find a level that allows you to climb in and out. You can also raise your upper body, making it easier to swing your legs out. This in turn helps improve the independence and confidence of the elderly and or those with low mobility at home.
Adjustable Bed Health Benefits
Reclining beds can also improve your health, targeting certain problems while you sleep, as below.
Pain Relief with Reclining Beds
Reclining beds offer pain relief for several problems by providing weight distribution and support for your spine. This means they can relieve back and arthritis pains, whereas continuing to sleep on a regular flatbed can often worsen these issues, as you’re restricted in your positioning.
Alternatively, using a reclining bed at a 45-degree angle and raising the foot of the bed is the ultimate way to relieve pressure on your spine.
Adjustable beds also help to alleviate discomfort caused by heartburn, acid reflux and indigestion by elevating your body. These are all common problem which can keep you up at night,
Improved Circulation with Reclining Beds
If you suffer from poor circulation, raising your legs can help to improve blood flow. This will help to reduce any swelling too, making adjustable beds perfect for recovery! Sleeping with your legs raised is also comfortable, meaning you can enjoy sleep while your circulation improves. This, in turn, should improve your health and prevent further issues!
Smart Mattress for Your Reclining Bed
Many couples have different preferences when it comes to their sleeping position. Fortunately, our dual control adjustable beds with a split mattress allow each person to control their side of the bed, so you can each enjoy your own position without disturbing the other. In addition, an elevated position can also help reduce snoring – meaning a happier life for everyone!
