A Top Quality Mattress Can Improve The Quality Of Your Life

Are you waking up tired or uncomfortable? Having difficulty getting through the day? Or are you sometimes stressed out? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then it sounds like your quality of life is not all that it could be.  Getting enough sleep, and ensuring it's a comfortable sleep, is one of the best things you can do for yourself. If you can get a superb quality of sleep, you'll wake up feeling like you're on top of the world. You'll be able to handle things in your everyday life again and create a barrier of well-being against stress. Being happier and less stressed will also benefit your interpersonal relationships: you'll be able to cultivate harmonious interactions without it seeming like any effort to you. So, investing in a top quality mattress can truly improve the quality of your life.  How to identify a top quality mattress and how this impacts your wellbeing You may be wondering: What are the hallmarks of a top quality mattress?  Firstly, comfort is the key here. You won't sleep well on your old or sagging mattress, no matter how fancy it may have been when you first purchased it. A top quality new mattress will deliver proper support for the spine, while still feeling soft and relaxing to your body. The perfect balance of firmness and comfort is what you need to look for. Latex mattresses are the type recommended by many osteopaths and chiropractors for the ability to provide restful ease and relieve certain types of back or joint pain. Imagine how good it would feel to sleep on such a comfortable environment each and every night. Another hallmark of a top quality mattress is its durability. There are plenty of mattresses which might feel great at first touch - but sleep on them for a few weeks or months and they will quickly sag. Not only is this uncomfortable, but it is a waste of your money. Did you know that latex mattresses are actually one of the most durable types of mattress?  Their natural springiness means there are no metal spring coils to wear down: the comfortable elasticity is a property intrinsic to the latex foam itself. You certainly won't have to worry about replacing a latex mattress too soon. A top quality mattress will come from a store which allows you to have an in-home trial. Although you can test out a mattress in a showroom, the only way you'll know how it feels is to actually sleep on it. You should shop at a bedding store which allows you to try out the mattress in your home for a period of time (usually up to 30 days). You can relax in the knowledge that if this mattress doesn't feel good, the store will switch it out for a different level of firmness, ensuring you end up with the most comfortable mattress for you.  Not only is an in-home trial practical for you, but it also informs you that the company sells top quality mattresses. Why? Because the shop is confident that it can provide you with a comfortable mattress. Heveya® Singapore is happy to offer an in-home trial to customers. In contrast, a bedding shop which sells poor quality mattresses would not dare to offer an in-home trial, because they know that there would be too many customers who simply could never find a comfortable fit for them.  Yet another hallmark of a high quality mattress is its international certificates. International certification means that the mattress has passed certain tests or was manufactured in a specific way. Any mattress may have zero, one, or more certificates. A top quality mattress should have at least one, and preferably more, certificates. Certification is a stringent process which tells you the mattress conforms to top international standards. Such certificates are not awarded easily, and these are an independent measure of quality in a mattress. To name just one example, the LGA certificate tells you that this latex mattress complies with stringent standards of durability and elasticity. When you sleep on a top quality mattress made to certain specifications, you can rest assured that the product will serve you well - now and for many years to come. Why is quality of life so important these days? Quality of life is extremely important in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Investing in your quality of life can pay dividends in your ability to handle all that life throws at you. By improving your sleep, a top quality mattress can truly enhance your life and make you feel great - every day.  Odds are your old mattress simply isn't allowing you to be well rested enough. A really outstanding mattress, such as a latex mattress, provides the ultimate in gentle comfort for a great night's sleep. This will allow you to feel so much better, both physically and mentally. You'll feel more upbeat, happier and perform even better at your job. Secondly, proper spinal alignment will help relieve back and joint pain. A latex mattress is considered the best type for relieving such pain, and this can go a long way to promoting more sleep and better sleep. Even if you don't suffer from pain, you can (and should) still reap the rewards of a bed which promotes proper spinal alignment. Your body will feel wonderful when you wake up. Thirdly, a more durable mattress allows you to enjoy it for longer: it's as simple as that. You can reap all the rewards of an excellent mattress for a much longer period of time when it's highly durable. Also, you will save money with a long-lasting mattress, because you won't have to replace it soon.  Quality of life is more important than ever in Singapore and globally in the 21st century. This is because wellbeing is your best natural defence against the stress of a fast-paced life which is so much the case these days.  Conclusion Your night time sleep and comfort has an incredible impact on your daytime wellbeing. You are going to be sleeping on a mattress at night anyway, so you might as well make that time count toward your quality of life when you invest in a top quality mattress. The excitement of a busy career or an abundance of interpersonal community relationships is a good thing. But at the end of a long day, you deserve to retreat and regenerate with a comfortable restful sleep on a top quality mattress.

How to Choose a Good Latex Mattress - Buyer's Guide

If you are thinking of purchasing a latex mattress, you have made a good choice already. Latex offers a truly wonderful combination of support and comfort which owners love. Benefits go beyond comfort; the natural mould resistance, excellent airflow and natural origin of the latex mattress are highly regarded by many. Indeed, as testament to its relaxing properties, many with back pain find that a latex mattress is by far the best in offering relief. But beware: not all latex mattresses are created equal. With the huge array of options available, the market can seem bewildering. Rest assured this latex mattress buying guide will help show you what is (and what is not) important in purchasing a good latex mattress. Organic vs natural vs natural/synthetic blended Firstly, there is the origin of the latex: natural or synthetic. An all-natural latex mattress is where the latex comes solely from the rubber tree, Hevea Brasiliensis. This is the most desirable option if you are a strong advocate of using raw material derived solely from nature. All-natural latex mattress tends to be slightly more expensive.  An all-natural latex mattress may also be organic. In terms of performance the organic is equivalent to natural latex. Its appeal lies in the organically sourced nature of the product, which is attractive if you are an eco-conscious customer. An organic latex mattress is usually somewhat more expensive than a regular (non-organic) all-natural latex mattress. Synthetic latex, on the other hand is made by polymerizing a monomer. A monomer is a molecule that binds chemically to other molecules to form a polymer which is then processed to produce latex that looks and behaves similarly to natural. Note that mattresses are either all-natural, or a natural/synthetic blend of latex. In practice, there are no all-synthetic latex mattresses. A natural/synthetic blend of latex mattress isn’t necessary inferior compared to a all-natural latex mattress. Most leading latex mattress manufacturers still continue to develop and manufacture natural/synthetic blend of latex mattresses. By mixing synthetic latex with natural latex, they are able to manipulate and achieve the ‘perfect mattress’ that is superior in both comfort and support, consistently. Some of these manufacturers even keep this ‘combination’ a trade secret from their competitors as they do not want their formula to be copied. As a consumer, if you decide to purchase a natural/synthetic blend of latex mattress, or even for a all-natural latex mattress, just make sure that the bedding store is able to show you the various certifications the mattress has obtained. These certifications are important as they indicate that the latex mattress has undergone rigorous testing of international standard, such as Oeko-Tex, Eurolatex, LGA and Morton Thiokol - to certify that the latex core excels in durability and elasticity, does not contain any harmful substances and poses no risks to the sleeper and the environment. Processing method: Dunlop versus Talalay Latex (whether natural or blended) can be processed in one of two different ways to create the latex blocks for mattresses. One of these is called the Dunlop method, the other is the Talalay method.  It's not important for us to know all the chemistry behind these methods. However, it is important to know that these methods result in slightly different mattress properties. The Dunlop method results in a firmer-feeling mattress and forms a single block the size of the mattress. Very often, a softer-feeling can also be achieved by adding a topper of a lower density on top of the main mattress core. In contrast, the Talalay method results in a softer-feeling mattress and is a little more expensive to produce.  This is not a case of one method being superior and one inferior, but instead, a situation where each person will have their own preference based on what feels comfortable when testing out these mattresses. 100% latex vs latex with other materials Thirdly, there is the distinction between all-latex mattresses versus latex which is overlaid (or under laid) with another material, most typically polyurethane (PU) foam, memory foam, innersprings or a combination of all three. Generally speaking, all-latex mattresses tend to be considered much more desirable than latex combined with another material. This is mainly because PU foam can off-gas (i.e. emit a chemical odour), which is rather unpleasant. Moreover, all-latex mattresses are more lasting and do not lose their support or shape easily compared to any other mattress materials. While these different types of latex mattresses may seem bewildering to you, simply remember that all-natural or a natural/synthetic blended 100% latex mattresses are usually considered most desirable. Such mattresses may be made by one of two processing methods (Dunlop and Talalay), neither of which is 'better' or 'worse' but instead which simply result in a different overall feel and different level of firmness to the mattress. Firmness level You'll need to try out different levels of firmness to decide which one is right for you. Like other mattresses, latex offers various levels of firmness. These range from a soft one which gives you a soft 'sinking' feeling to a very firm mattress.  Do take note that you shouldn’t be confused or overly concerned between firmness and hardness. Firmness is usually measured by mass per unit volume (kg/m3) and hardness is measured either by using kPa (kilo-pascal) or ILD (indentation load deflection). You can find out more about the difference between density and hardness of latex mattress in this website. You can only determine the right firmness level that suits you best by laying and testing it out.  What are the pinholes about? You have probably noticed from online photos that latex mattresses are punctuated with a series of pinholes. These holes serve two purposes. The first is to provide excellent airflow for proper hygiene. This keeps the mattress cool and allows moisture to escape easily, an important issue in warm humid climates like Singapore. The second function of the pinholes is to fine-tune the firmness. While the firmness is largely determined by the composition of latex in the mattress, the pinholes play a role too. The size and number of pins affect the level of comfort and firmness you experience. In fact, some latex mattresses have the pinholes arranged differently in different parts of the mattress, allowing you to experience different zones of softness and firmness for ultimate body support. Other latex mattresses have a uniform arrangement of pins. This all comes down to what you're seeking and what you feel is most comfortable for you when testing out mattresses. A mattress isn't something you buy every day - in fact the chance to do it comes only about once every 10 years. So, treat yourself to whatever offers you the most relaxation and pressure relief. For some, this could be a latex mattress with a variable arrangement of pins, while for others, it could be a latex mattress with a uniform arrangement of pins. Rest assured that you will not have to count the pinholes to determine whether you have a good quality latex mattress. You can determine that by lying on it: a good quality latex mattress with sufficient pinholes will feel comfortable to you. Do I need a multi-layer latex mattress? You may have noticed that some latex mattresses are one layer (one block) while others are made of two or more layers. The multi-layer mattress will be enclosed in a sturdy removable cover. At first glance, a single layer and multi-layer latex mattress will look alike. If you are curious though, you can easily examine the layers in a multi-layer mattress when you unzip the cover.  A multi-layer latex mattress offers some added benefits over single layer mattresses. The first of these is personalized comfort. Different levels of softness and firmness can be stacked to create the perfect sleeping experience for you. In stacking layers, the softest layer is usually placed on top for comfort and the firmer layer at the bottom to provide a good support base. However, you can have the layers the way you want; stacking offers you plenty of different combinations to try. The key here is to find the arrangement which makes your body most comfortable. The other benefit of a multi-layer mattress is the ability to later change out a layer if you desire. For example, a lifestyle change may occur and you might decide you want to change out one of the layers for a different level of firmness. This is much easier and more convenient for you than replacing the entire mattress.  However, the question of whether you need a multi-layer latex mattress is a personal decision which only you can make. In general, all other things being equal, a multi-layer mattress is considered more desirable than a single block. For example, a 15-cm layer plus a 5-cm layer tend to be considered better than one 20-cm layer. This is because of the reasons of customisability given above. Yet ultimately there is no right or wrong here, but rather this is something you will need to test out by lying on different mattresses. Look for certifications The best quality latex mattresses have certifications. Certifications are indicators that the mattress has passed certain stringent tests or adheres to specific international standards. Certifications may also be given for being manufactured in a particular way.  The certifying bodies are extremely stringent about their standards and these certifications are not awarded easily. So, if a particular brand and model of latex mattress has been awarded certifications, this is a good sign that you're looking at a high-quality product.  Do I need a warranty? Yes, a warranty is a must! Don't be tempted to buy a mattress without a warranty: it will be of poor quality. Only buy a mattress which the manufacturer or seller is willing to stand behind with a warranty. No matter how good a deal seems, there's a catch in it for you if there's no warranty. A high-quality latex mattress will always come with a warranty period of at least 10 years.  The bottom line when shopping As you can see, there are factors that matter when shopping for a latex mattress and some other criteria that are optional.  The must-haves: All-natural latex or natural/synthetic blended 100% latex mattress (not combined with other materials) Sufficient pinholes that allow the mattress to ventilate well Certifications awarded by recognised international bodies Warranty of at least 10 years Features up to individual preference: Organic vs all-natural latex versus natural/synthetic blended Desired level of firmness Latex processed by Dunlop vs Talalay method Multi-layer vs single-layer mattress Now that you have identified the must-have features versus those which come down to your personal preference, mattress shopping will be easier and more pleasurable for you. Remember that the aim of shopping for a latex mattress is to ensure your utmost comfort. So, enjoy the process of seeking out your perfect mattress!

Does Mattress Affect Sleep Quality And Health

Customers often ask if the mattress a person is sleeping on can affect their sleep quality and health. The answer is a resounding YES, and the best night's sleep one get should be on their own mattress. Beware: 6 signs that your mattress could be taking a toll on your sleep Have you woken up feeling unrested? Do you sleep better on a different bed, for example at a hotel or a relative's home? Can you sense lumps, springs, or sagging in your mattress? Do you have to lie on a particular place in your mattress to get to sleep? Is it almost as easy for you to fall asleep on the sofa as it is in your own bed? Does your mattress make any sound when you move in bed? If you have said yes to any of the above questions, then your mattress is robbing you of your sleep health. Everyone deserves a good night's rest Your sleep is crucial to your quality of life. In today's fast-paced society, there is simply too much to do and not enough time. Yet your body still requires sufficient sleep to regenerate each day to give you sufficient energy for the next day. If you suspect your mattress is giving you less than stellar sleep health, then it's time for a new mattress! Everyone deserves a good night's rest. There is no need to wait until the situation is so dire that you're simply not comfortable lying in your own bed. Do not make the common mistake of confusing the quantity of sleep with quality. For example, if your mattress does not properly support your spine, then even a long night's sleep will not feel particularly restful to you. You may even wake up in the morning experiencing back pain. In contrast, you'll be able to feel fully rested and refreshed on the perfect mattress, even if you get fewer hours of sleep. In that case, just imagine how fantastic a long sleep on the perfect mattress would feel! What is the perfect mattress? Everyone is unique, so there is no one-size-fits-all solution to the perfect mattress. There are several factors to consider when selecting which mattress to buy. The most important factor is your comfort, and the only way to determine that is to actually lie on a mattress to test it out. Although you can and should try out the mattress in the showroom, the top reputable mattress bedding stores will also offer you an in-home trial. This is where you can actually test out the mattress for up to 100 days in your own home. If you are not entirely satisfied, the bedding store should be able to change it out for you. The idea here is to be certain that at the end of the day, you will have the perfect mattress for you. However, before even getting to the point of an in-home trial, you might want to find out more online or at a bedding store about the different types of mattress materials. They all have different pros and cons, but if it has been a long time since you were last in the market for a mattress, you should be aware that latex is rapidly becoming one of the most highly recommended mattress materials. This is due to its comfort, durability, natural origin (from the sap of the rubber tree), natural mould resistance and allergen resistance. Of course, the choice of mattress type is ultimately up to you. Always remember, you are in control of regaining your sleep health. Under every perfect mattress is the perfect base If budget constraint is an issue for you, then certainly the mattress should be your main focal point at the moment. However, if you have the financial means, do consider purchasing a new bed base along with a new mattress to reap the best benefits in your sleep health. A mattress will perform to its utmost when placed on a new, good quality bed base. And on the other hand, even the best mattress cannot help but sag if the bed base is sagging. In warm and humid climates such as Singapore, the European style of adjustable sprung slatted bed base is ideal. This is because the slats allow excellent airflow to maintain the hygiene you desire, while simultaneously offering natural springiness for optimal mattress support and comfort. Regaining your sleep health Ultimately, while the mattress upon which you sleep comprises one of the most important parts of your sleep health, it is not the only part. You could purchase a new mattress only to stay awake much of the night because you have had a lot of coffee that day, for example. So make sure you exercise sensibly, set a regular bedtime most days when possible, and ensure you have your room sufficiently dark during bed time. When you regain your sleep health, you will feel better and be healthier. You'll be able to fight off infections better, be more effective at work, and drive more safely. Not only will this increased well-being benefit you, but your improved mood and outlook will also benefit your relationships with others. You can't put a price tag on a good night's sleep. And the best night's sleep you get should be on your own mattress.
