Better Sleep: The Need for Sleep
Innersprings and Better Sleep
Anyone who's spent the night tossing and turning knows the negative effects of poor sleep. Sleep problems have become a modern phenomenon that takes a tremendous toll on our bodies and minds, demonstrated by the unprecedented 50-percent increase in the use of prescription sleep aids among adults under age 45 from 1998 to 2006.
What you may not realize is that poor sleep caused by an uncomfortable mattress robs you of your sleep AND deprives you of your long-term health. Recent studies associate lack of sleep with serious health problems like increased risk of depression, obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Finding the right mattress is more important than ever. Dedicated to helping you sleep well, Leggett & Platt's innersprings and foundations are ergonomically engineered to give the support and comfort your body needs for a healthy night's rest.
Four Elements of Good Sleep
Surely you've heard of the four food groups and understand that a balanced diet plays an important role in our overall health. The same theory applies to the Four Elements of Good Sleep. If your mattress doesn't provide each of these aspects, you may be stuck in an unhealthy sleep pattern.
- Active Support: Allows your muscles to relax in a more natural sleep position
- Body Support: Provides proper body support; is sensitive to the body's contours and helps to reduce movement during sleep
- Weight Distribution: Supports varying degrees of weight with consistent firmness
- Pressure Equalization: Equalizes pressure points creating balanced support from head-to-toe
Fortunately, all of L&P's innersprings and box springs are built with these four elements in mind, ensuring that you and your customers get a good night of sleep every night.
