The Benefits in Bed Profiling

On a flat bed, the shape of the body along with the natural curvature in the small of the back leads to a build of pressure which in healthy people results in a large number of body movements during sleep. In people with restricted movement, this pressure Can produce painful and distressing pressure sores.

Raising the feet causes the pelvis to rotate which flattens out the curvature of the spine naturally. This means that more of the body is in contact with the mattress which means lower pressure, particularly on the most vulnerable areas (the base of the spine, the shoulders and the heels) This means greater comfort and a much reduced risk of developing pressure sores. Raising the feet also transfers pressure from the bony heels to the fleshy calves, greatly reducing the pressure at the heels.

Raising the head with the feet raised puts the heart on the same level as the feet. Therefore the heart is not having to pump against gravity and is put under less stress The raising of the feet can also improve venous drainage back to the by up to 40% The raised head geometry is particularly good for relieving the symptoms of various chest conditions such as Asthma. It also happens to be unbelievably comfortable. Try it and find out.
