High Sun Mattress How My Memory Foam Mattress Transformed My Life | Page 3

So where does the secret of its immense success lie? Memory foam is made of a fascinating material called viscoelastic, which has the amazing ability to change shape when heated. Whether asleep or awake, your body is constantly giving off heat to its surroundings and it’s this personal heat, individual to you, which the mattress cleverly harnesses to change its shape and mould itself to the contours of your back. The result is a personalised mattress exactly matched to every notch in your back. It cushions those extra-sensitive (agonising) pressure points in your back, embracing them in a perfectly gentle and soothing way. Heat then travels away from the points of contact so that when it cools it retains its shape, ‘remembering’ your imprint. When you first lie down you will experience a kind of sinking sensation as the mattress adjusts to your shape and distributes your weight evenly. You will then quickly feel relaxed and a cosy sleep should soon follow. And there you have it: instead of a restless night full of tossing, turning and rubbing of those aching joints, the frustration turns to sheer delight and a deeply comforting and nourishing sleep.
