What is Memory Foam?
 Visco-elastic
memory foam is a direct result of space-age technology. Developed
during the 1960’s for NASA this product was used to cushion and
deflect the tremendous effects of gravitational pull experienced by
our astronauts during take off and re-entry into the earth’s
atmosphere. By way of its great success with NASA, the foam began
being used to cushion, protect and comfort critically ill
individuals in hospital intensive care units. It also provided
outstanding healing benefits and comfort to bed ridden individuals
in hospital burn centers. As its fame grew, other industries began
using visco-elastic foam in car seats, cushions and a wide variety
of products. Soon customers, who experienced visco-elastic foam in
hospital beds and other sources, began demanding this product for
their own use in sleep products. And the rest is history!
Unlike "conventional foam" with its quick recovery or
bouncy feel, visco-elastic slowly and automatically adjusts to your
body weight and temperature. In addition to the slow, conforming
response, visco-elastic foam offers complete, luxurious and stress-
free support. Visco-elastic foam accommodates any body anomalies or
spinal irregularities, making it a must for those who suffer with
scoliosis, arthritis and its resulting bone deformities and many
other situations that make sleeping on a conventional innerspring
mattress extremely uncomfortable and often impossible!
Waking at night due to excessive pressure being applied to hips,
knees and other parts of the body while sleeping on conventional
coiled products is one of the most common complaints from today's
mattress shopper. Additionally, many suffer and awaken during the
night feeling overly hot and sweaty on their mattress. These are the
two most common causes of a poor night's sleep. Visco-elastic memory
foam eliminates uncomfortable pressure points and adjusts itself
based on your own body temperature and weight.
Because of its comforting properties, tossing and turning are
dramatically diminished and disrupted sleep patterns greatly
eliminated. Thus, you sleep longer without moving, in a more
comfortable position and enjoy the benefits of a deeper, more
restful sleep pattern. Should you move during the night, your
partner is never disturbed due to the lack of reciprocal movement
between sleeping partners. Additionally, when you do move in bed,
visco-elastic foam gently fills in and reshapes itself to your new
sleeping posture, cradling every part of your body. Coupled with a
visco-elastic contour pillow (which further aligns the spine and
supports the head) sleeping on our visco-elastic memory foam
mattress will assure you of a great nights sleep...every
night!
