Tempur-Pedic® Memory Foam Mattress

Tempurpedic

Getting a good night’s sleep is important and is something that everyone should be able to look forward to.  For many people however, sleeping does not bring full rest, whether it is because of their partner tossing and turning all night and waking them up, or because they feel stiff and sore in the morning, maybe even because of underlying physical problems with their discs or arthritis.  With a tempur pedic memory foam mattress however, most of these problems disappear.

What distinguishes a tempur pedic foam mattress from a conventional mattress is that the tempur pedic mattresses are made of thousands of individual cells bonded together.  Not only do these cells respond to the heat and the weight of your body, the really good news is that if you are sharing your bed with someone else when they move the energy is absorbed by the cells close to their body and does not extend across the whole bed.   In a very famous commercial, this is demonstrates with a glass of wine on wine side of the bed, and someone jumping on the other side.  The wine does not spill, and while this may seem slightly miraculous, there is still more to this story.

For people who suffer from disc or back issues and arthritis, the Tempur-pedic foam warms up in response to your body heat, allowing the bed to conform to your shape.  What this ultimately means is that your spine is kept in perfect alignment, and there are no pressure points formed between you and the mattress, unlike a conventional bed.  These mattresses also don’t need to be turned or rotated as the memory foam regains its form quite easily.  In fact, the mattresses are covered by a twenty year guarantee.  They also use tempur foam pieces to make pillows for their beds, as well as for travelling or just sitting on the couch.

The tempur pedic memory foam bed is available in many different configurations, although all of them involve several layers of Tempur-pedic foam.  The depth of the foam is quite considerable and can range from around nine inches to over eleven.  For example, there is one model which has the top layer blended with silk and bamboo to form something similar to a pillow top. There are other models that are configured differently and include something called Tempur HD, which is also a patented memory foam product offering just a little bit of extra support.  All of the mattresses also come in various sizes, ranging from twin to split king-size.

Tempur- pedic is a Swedish company that began making mattresses with tempur foam in 1992, after nearly a decade of research and development.  Their inspiration came from NASA who was experimenting with different products faced with the G forces that astronauts experience during space flights.  NASA has since given accolades to the product, as has Good Housekeeping, Consumers Digest, The Arthritis Foundation and thousands of individuals and back care professionals.  Their products are available in traditional stores, as well as through online merchants on the internet.
