The positions in which we sleep can impact our recovery and health conditions, yet we often overlook our sleeping position when addressing our health concerns.
Adjusting your sleeping position with a pillow is often the first, easy step in testing how modifying how you sleep can help improve your sleep. An adjustable bed is the next step in dramatically improving your quality of sleep.

The ideal sleep position! Complete support for spine, joints, muscles, and pain relief.Reduced pressure on your circulatory system can assist in maintaining healthy blood ow and lymphatic drainage
Leg Elevation
Elevate your legs above your head to relieve symptoms such as restless legs, edema, fluid retention, tired and sore feet and legs.
Head Elevation
This is the ideal sleep position for people with respiratory problems like emphysema, asthma, chest congestion, hiatus hernia, and reflux.
Leg and Head Elevation
Your body is cradled into a foetal position, ideal for skeletal and muscular pain relief. Also assists to maintain healthy blood flow from head to toe.
Flat
Supine or lying at on your back requires a supportive mattress with a soft memory foam layer to allow reduction in pressure.
Laying at reduces pressure on your spine and joints, allowing your body time to rest and rejuvenate.
