Sleeping positions play a major role in getting the quality sleep you need. If you have an adjustable bed at home, congrats! The benefits of owning an adjustable bed far outweigh any regular bed. Figuring out which sleeping position is the most suitable on a zero gravity adjustable bed? Short answer: it depends.
A healthy, young individual may have fewer sleep position preferences compared to the elderly who are more susceptible to bodily aches and pains as well as health problems. And then there’s the third group comprising of people who are neither young nor old but have enough body issues to keep them awake at night. Pregnant women and nursing mothers make up the fourth group with a whole different set of sleep position preferences to accommodate the changes in their bodies.
Read on to know more about the several sleeping positions you can try to help you find that sweet spot with Comfort Furniture’s adjustable bed series.
1. Anti-Snore Position
Easily woken up by even the slightest noise? We know how that feels. Our adjustable bed remote controllers come with the “Anti-Snore” button to chase the snores away for peaceful nights ahead. The user will experience a backrest inclination at 15°. This customised anti-snore position is suitable for sleepers who constantly keep their partner awake with their incessant loud snoring in addition to people who suffer from sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder that causes frequent pauses in breathing while the individual is asleep. The most common sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea which occurs when the throat muscles intermittently relax and block the airway during sleep. The slight “uplifting” angle will have your head elevated to remove pressure from the throat and open up your nasal passage for smoother breathing.
2. Zero Gravity Position
Ah yes, space travelling on an adjustable bed! Experience weightless support and enjoy a pressure-free feeling just like the astronauts! Let your body repair and recover as you sleep in this “Zero Gravity” setting that helps to distribute your weight evenly and keep your spine in a neutral position to release any tension build-up in your body. One of the most sought-after benefits that makes everyone want to own a Zero Gravity adjustable bed is to be rid of back pains when sleeping.
Lucky for you, you can say goodbye to back aches with the Benita Adjustable Bed paired with the Baton Hybrid Mattress (medium-firm feel) to tackle frozen shoulder issues while changing to a healthier sleep position, that is by sleeping on your back.
With our Benita Adjustable Bed, you can sleep for as long as you want without having to put up with a sore back afterwards. Just set our adjustable bed at Zero Gravity position all night to relieve body discomfort. Go ahead and fine-tune your sleep position with a Zero-G bed!
3. Watching TV Position
That’s right, even when you’re watching your favourite shows or reading a book you’ll need a comfortable watching or reading position so you don’t develop a hunched posture that’s detrimental to your neck and back. Customise the bed position setting to suit your lifestyle and health needs with our adjustable bed’s wireless remote complete with LED backlight and preset positions. The remote controller allows programmable personalised settings to adjust to your favourite positions easily, be it for watching TV, reading or sleeping.
4. Backrest Inclination
It can be a pain in the back and neck when you just can’t get that position right. Fortunately, the “Backrest Incline” should help resolve that with just a click to achieve that comfortable back support. With an elevated angle of up to 60°, the significantly raised position helps to improve digestion as well as ease acid reflux symptoms and heartburn which are particularly common among middle-aged and senior citizens. Sitting up with the backrest as support reduces strains on the back and neck. If you need the ideal adjustable bed position for back pain, this — and the Zero Gravity sleep position, of course — are definitely the best options for you! Curious to know more about the Zero Gravity position? We’re getting to it so read on to find out!
While we’re on the subject of the best positions for back and neck pain, the “Backrest Incline” is also ideal for pregnant women and nursing mums. During and after a pregnancy, a woman’s body undergoes numerous changes, aches and pains. Some ladies may even be confined to bed rest for the betterment of themselves and their growing foetus. This is where the “Backrest Inclination” feature on the Benita Adjustable Bed swoops in to help save you from those pregnancy woes and ease your discomfort. Even post-birth, this feature will be an essential part of your nursing routine, especially during night feeds. You can adjust the backrest to an angle that best suits you and your baby’s feeding position for a more comfortable nursing experience.
5. Footrest Inclination
Regardless of any age group, everybody is guilty of standing, sitting or lying down too long while compromising the comfort of our legs. Need to improve blood flow for better health? Lift your foot with the “Footrest Incline” option. It elevates your feet up to 40° to reduce the pressure on your legs — a feature that pregnant ladies will certainly appreciate as it helps reduce the likelihood of water retention on their legs. According to research, sitting or lying down with your legs elevated can improve blood circulation, reduce swelling and lower pressure in the legs1.
6. Flat Position
This position is for those who prefer to achieve the “norm” on certain days, including on days when we need to change the bedsheet, or simply lie flat on our backs. With Comfort Furniture’s adjustable beds, the user can easily click on the “Flat Reset” remote button without having to recline the backrest and leg rest individually.
7. Split Arrangement (king-sized only)
Last but certainly not least, comes our adjustable king-sized bed frame’s most impressive feature — the bed split arrangement! This is perfect for couples who prefer different tilt positions so that there’s no compromising on your sleep position preferences. The individualised setting also ensures that your partner’s sleep will not be disturbed. Even the type of mattress firmness can be different for both sides, depending on your preferences.
Now that you know all about the various sleeping positions you can explore with our adjustable bed frames, there’s one last feature that you can use in any position — the wireless remote. All Comfort Furniture adjustable bed frames come with a wireless remote that not only has programmable personalised settings so you can quickly and conveniently switch to your favourite position, it also comes with LED backlights and preset positions so you won’t have to play guessing games in the dark when you’re readjusting your position at night.
