Benefits Of A Custom Foam Mattress

Oct 24, 2019 | By Rudo


A good night’s rest is a fundamental human right. You work hard all day, whether on your feet or behind a desk. As you may well know, sleep plays a crucial role in optimum health and well-being. Getting enough of it at the right times protects and even supplements mental health, physical health, and quality of life.

Over the past decade, memory foam mattresses have gone from speciality beds, to super popular. In fact, memory foam is being used in 20% of all beds currently being purchased worldwide. Combine a memory foam mattress with the customisation, and you’ve got the ultimate sleeping experience.

As opposed to other types of mattresses available on the market, custom foam mattresses incorporate technology from space organisation NASA. The custom memory foam mattress adjusts itself to conform to your bodyline. If you’re on the verge of purchasing a new bed, a custom foam mattress should be it because of the many benefits that come along with one.

Let’s look at those:

Memory Foam Conforms to The Shape and Weight of Your Body

Custom mattresses that are made from memory foam mould to your body as a result of heat and pressure. This means that the surface evenly distributes body weight when occupied and then returns to its original shape once the pressure is removed. Essentially, memory foam allows for pressure point relief, which is especially helpful for those who sleep on their side.

Custom Foam Mattresses Provide Temperature-Control Support

Memory foam accommodates a variety of sleeping positions and body types. There are few things more challenging than trying to get a good night’s rest when your body temperature is low. With regular beds, you simply do not get the temperature control support that a custom memory foam mattress provides.

This is because custom foam mattresses that are made with memory foam are designed and manufactured using temperature-sensitive material, resulting in a bed that adjusts to your body heat and weight.

Custom Foam Mattresses Reduce Pressure Point Problems

Memory foam also reduces pressure point problems. A custom foam mattress made from memory foam will help realign your neck, spine and hips, resulting in a reduction of chronic respiratory issues by ensuring you breathe correctly while sleeping.

A custom foam mattress will undoubtedly provide health benefits by helping to alleviate body aches and soreness, as well as improving your recovery rate from injuries.

This is because memory foam can displace pressure from points of pain on your body.

This goes back to the temperature control support that memory foam provides. Areas of pain have a slightly higher temperature and the technology used in memory foam counters these higher temperature areas by moulding and reducing pressure.

Less Movement Disturbance

Do you remember that advertisement where people are jumping around a glass full of red wine on a bed, yet it doesn’t spill? Well, a good custom memory foam mattress absorbs surface movement making it perfect for couples.

If your partner is a restless sleeper, then you should invest in a custom foam mattress. When your partner tosses and turns, you won’t even feel it, ensuring you get a good night’s rest. Our Sloom mattress has 0% motion transfer, so we’ve perfected this technology. No more sleepless nights!

Great for People with Allergies

Mattresses contain dust mites, and dust mites aren’t suitable for people with allergies. A custom foam mattress made from memory foam contains Polyurethane. This prevents mould and mildew and is also resistant to pet dander. Memory foam is super dense, so it effectively reduces the collection of allergens over time.

Comfort Adjustable

The lifespan of a memory foam mattress is much longer than other mattresses because of the premium quality memory foam used.
