Information about Waterbeds.

We spend around one third of our lives in one single place: in Bed! It should be a place that gives us comfort, warmth, and security. We, and our thousands of satisfied customers, believe that the best nights' sleep you can get is on one of our waterbeds. They provide an environment for us to enjoy both physical and mental relaxation, which means we have less stress, less discomfort and a much improved quality of life.

Many of us are unaware of what we need to look for when buying a bed. It is a single purchase made once every few years. In between times, we all change: We get older, shed or gain a few pounds! as well as other physical differences, so we should be choosing a bed which can accommodate these changes. Happily, a waterbed does this for you and it is the most versatile and hygienic sleep system known. We ourselves are 80% water and therefore don't need to adapt to the shape of the bed, because the bed adapts to the shape of us

Many conditions - including that of perfect health - will derive benefit from a waterbed, as elements of the medical profession have long acknowledged. A waterbed itself is not a cure for the conditions mentioned but it can provide relief and improve the overall situation thus encouraging the body to heal itself.

Backaches are one condition where this has often proved to be the case, as the argument for a hard bed being ideal for a bad back is losing ground. People with varying severities of backache are finding that a bed which supports your back where the pain exists - such as a waterbed - can be far more beneficial.

Arthritis sufferers are amongst the people most benefited by a waterbed. All over support reduces the pressure on the major areas of arthritic inflammation. The warmth improves the bloods' circulation and can reduce the localised pain.

Allergenics and asthmatics find that the vinyl surface of the mattress means that no dust, skin particles or bed mites should be present if the mattress is simply wiped over with a damp cloth, so providing a far healthier environment to sleep in. All waterbeds sold by us have a removable, washable top. Underneath this is the vinyl water mattress, which can also be cleaned. A porous spring mattress, which is used in ordinary beds, is an ideal breeding space for dust mites which feed on hair and tiny flakes of skin. It is the dust mite excreta that most asthmatics are allergic to, and replacing the spring mattress with a water mattress, which dust mites cannot breed in, provides relief to most people with breathing problems. www.efanet.org is the site for the European Federation of Asthma and Allergy Associations.
