Lots of people complain about having
few energies during the day and waking up already tired.
Surely they sleep little and bad.
It is scientifically proved sleep needs some precise
rules referring to the environment, personal needs, well
made support as mattress, pillow, springs, and so on.
Few know there’s a strong connection between good mood
and night-wellness. Sleeping quality and quantity affect
about 56% of our wellness sensation during the day. For
this reason bad sleeping quality and blues pathology are
strongly connected.
Wake up in the morning or after a little rest have to
correspond in a short holiday for our mental profile and
in a massages session for our physical profile.
A good bed is important
A large amount of the population suffer of backache.
Human vertical position can stress the vertebral column
too much. The back is connected to the nervous system in
the marrow that runs along the spine. The nerves close
to the vertebrae are protected from the pressure with
the help of Intervertebral discs, which undergo a
compression when we walk. In order to relieve the
pressure, it’s important to support the intervertebral
discs so they can stretch out again completely.
A good rest is crucial not only for the body. Our mind
needs to balance from the multiple forces we put before
during daily activities; so sleeping diseases caused by
inadequate body support can be perceived in the brain.
This continuous mental strain to change our bearing led
in a fragmented and scarcely qualitative sleep.
The quality of our life lean on wellness we guarantee
for our body and mind.
Sleep cycles
Sleep is a periodical and
psychological necessary restorative phase. Sleep
pattern is slightly different in young people in
comparison to older people.
A young person takes less time to fall asleep and he
will awake once in the middle of the night, once in the
early morning and once again before getting up. Older
people take longer to fall asleep and wake up several
times for longer periods before morning. Age increases
the periods of wakefulness during sleep.
Adults sleep is divided into four phases and also four
cycles. Light sleep, deep sleep, very deep sleep, R.E.M.
phase (the majority of remembered dreams take place in
this phase).
During the first three phases our consciousness falls
asleep and the muscles progressively relax. During the
last phase, instead, lack of muscles strength forces the
spine to great stress. It is precisely during this phase
that an adequate sleeping support is very important
(Choosing an adequate sleeping support becomes
important).

Choosing a mattress
Time ago
mattresses were padded with wool or vegetal fibre and
laid down upon wooden table; unfortunately a depression
was formed in the centre of the mattress during the
night causing the body to assume an unnatural position
called “banana” position. For this reason orthopaedic
mattresses have been created but also these could cause
damages for the body especially for body point pressure,
shoulder and bottom, which underwent a blood-stagnancy
and forced neck and waistline to dip to find a support.
Human body, instead, is made of lines and shapes which
have to be bore in accordance with their weight.
Furthermore, everyone has peculiar physical features:
weight, height, conformation and so on, which require an
accurate choice in comparison to the mattress we want to
rest upon.
A Good Bed
System
All
Materassia mattresses are the result of a meticulous
attention to the different product working phases. An
healthy and good sleep is assured by choosing only
selected raw materials and made with the most modern
technologies thanks to the accurate bacteriological and
long lasting tests.
A good bed system consist of three separate components:
a modern bed base, a suitable mattress and a pillow. The
base, the mattress and the pillow must enable the body
to maintain its physiological curvature. The base must
be sufficiently stiff and flexible at the same time. The
mattress must blend to the bed base and also respond to
the needs his user. The pillow must have a certain
consistency and respect the anthropometrical
characteristics the person using it, especially shoulder
width (for those who sleep on the side) and shape and
size of the head and neck (for those who sleep in a
supine position). A too high or low pillow can cause a
vertebral pill or charley horse, stressful for people
suffering from cervical disease.
Useful
tricks to sleep well
We have to
concentrate our attention on the bedroom. Sleeping hours
help human being regenerating itself and can contribute
our youth-maintaining.There are things you can do for
bettering your sleep : eat at fixed times avoiding heavy
meals before bedtime, that can interfere during the
sleep.Trying to relax as much as possible before going
to sleep. A warm bath (on the contrary the shower has an
ecciting effect), a relaxing drink as warm milk,
camomile or herb tea are only some good advise starting
a good night.
If falling asleep turns out to be difficult it’s better
not staying in bed, but do relaxing activities. If
happens to wake up before wakening time, it’s better
getting up and begin a new day.
Regarding to the bed we have to remember indestructible
mattresses doesn’t exist; the best thing is changing the
mattress every 7/8 years and the pillow every 3 years.
Furthermore every night the body expels 1/3 litre of
sweat which, depositing in the mattress, enables to make
it an ideal habitat for mites. That’s why is a good
habit letting the bedroom ventilate for 15-20 minutes
and place the mattress to the open air.
