New Mattresses are Good for Your Body
Nothing beats the help of a new and comfy mattress and apparently it is just what a person needs to be able to sleep properly. We all tend to overlook the value of mattresses over time, more so perhaps that all we care about is having a good place to sleep. We never really care about the quality of these mattresses and by all indications, the quality of the bed we are resting on will surely play a large part in helping us get the satisfactory manner of sleeping.
A New Mattress Does a Body Good
The survey also reveals that respondents who report getting seven to eight hours of sleep each night (7.5 hours is optimal) are more likely to be sleeping on a newer mattress (one to four years old).
Additionally, findings reveal that those sleeping on a newer mattress are significantly more likely to engage in physical activities than those who sleep on older mattresses:
Activity: Running 59% (mattress one – four years old), 6% (older mattress)
Activity: Weights 54% (mattress one – four years old), 8% (older mattress)
Activity: Aerobics 57% (mattress one – four years old), 9% (older mattress)
The same survey found that 81 percent of Americans report waking up with back, neck or shoulder pain in the past year, with nearly half (46 percent) of respondents reporting that they frequently (at least a few times a month) wake up with these types of pain that limit their physical performance.
