In fact, how you feel when you\u2019re awake depends a lot on what happens while you\u2019re asleep. While you\u2019re sleeping, your body is working to support healthy brain function and maintain your physical health. Not getting enough sleep or having your sleep disturbed can have instant or long term effect on your wellbeing. With all this and the fact that that we spend around a third of our lives sleeping, it is crucial to ensure you choose a high-quality mattress to suit your sleeping needs. From durability and adjustability to test-drives and pillow tops, here\u2019s our simple guide to helping you buy a mattress that suits your needs.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong> Consult your doctor<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you have any medical issues such as back pain or sleep apnea, ensure you talk to your doctor or physical therapist before you talk to your sales assistant.

Set aside at least 15 minutes and test it as you would a real night\u2019s sleep. Toss, turn and even snuggle into your partner as you test it out to full effect. It\u2019s worth taking the time to make sure you get a mattress suitable for your sleep pattern. Better yet, spend the night on the mattress if you know a hotel that uses the same one. Natural Sleep Company mattresses are used in over 30 luxury hotels in Ireland, and you can view the list of hotels <a href=\"http:\/\/naturalsleep.ie\/hotels.php\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Make it count, make it last. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Mattresses are an investment in the quality of the sleep you will receive. To make it worth it, you\u2019ll want to ensure they\u2019re highly durable and remain comfortable for as long as possible. A high-quality mattress will usually come from an experienced, reputable brand. The durability and lifespan of a mattress depending on the quality of the materials they use in its construction. Quality is also assured by the manner of the construction, which is why a handcrafted and natural mattress is often the most sought after when it comes to durability.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> Take advantage of an adjustable bed<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>An adjustable bed can be a great addition to both your bedroom and your quality of life. The best part is, they are not just for old-age pensioners but are brilliant for providing the necessary contours and comfort that our S-shaped<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spineuniverse.com\/anatomy\/normal-curves-your-spine\"> spines<\/a> and bendable legs crave. Most people spend their lives sleeping on flat mattresses that don\u2019t support these gaps or contours but rather keep our muscles working and tense. Whatever age you are, whatever health you are in, an adjustable bed can help you easily position yourself for ultimate comfort as you rest, sleep, read, use your laptop or simply do nothing.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong> Mattresses for couples<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Choosing a bed that needs to conform to two sets of needs is not always easy. While you may have to compromise on things such as cost, quality and firmness, one feature that couples will greatly benefit from is reduced motion disturbance. If you\u2019re sharing a bed, one person\u2019s tossing and turning may affect the sleep of the other. \u2018Motion disturbance\u2019 is a common phenomenon and one that can easily be prevented by choosing a mattress that will mould to your movements and absorb shocks. For instance, memory-foam mattresses offer a strong level of motion absorption. Equally, mattresses that have an abundance of plentiful springs help disperse the movements among them, unlike those with springs spread far apart.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1119\" src=\"http:\/\/naturalsleep.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc.jpg\" alt=\"Adjustable bed\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thenaturalsleep.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bambillo_Adjustable_Massage_Bed0518_Split_king_2048x2048_97c28d25-d05b-44ec-af74-29df351db7fc-1536x1536.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><strong> Be aware of your mattress warranty<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As a mattress is a sizeable investment, you should enquire whether it comes with a\u00a0warranty\u00a0before you complete your purchase.
