Busy lifestyles and stretched budgets usually mean that replacing a mattress can be quite far down the list of priorities. However, it is recommended that we replace our mattresses at least every 8 years. This is because a good mattress can make all the difference when it comes to good health, just check out these amazing benefits to see for yourself!
Reduces allergies
If they are not properly protected, mattresses can be like sponges for dead skin cells, dust mites, allergens and bed bugs. The longer you have your mattresses for, the more likely it is to be harbouring triggers for all kinds of allergies. A new mattress is a great way to start afresh and prevent allergies from becoming a problem in the bedroom.
Alleviates back pain
If a mattress is sagging in the middle or springs are visible through the top layer, then it is likely that the mattress will have a detrimental effect on your back. A good mattress should provide adequate support so that the spine can be aligned properly as you sleep. If you are experiencing back pain lately then it may well be that your mattress needs replacing.
Enhances focus
Old and unsupportive mattresses can lead to sleep deprivation which in turn leads to difficulty concentrating during the day. Replacing your mattress with a new one should help to promote a better night’s sleep which will mean it is much easier to focus.
Improves immune system
When our bodies are deprived of good quality sleep, the hormones that help our immune systems to function properly can be inhibited. This leaves the body open to infection and viruses which can impact on our day to day lives. A good quality mattress will promote a restful night’s sleep which will, in turn, allow the immune system to function at its best.
