According to research from the American Sleep Foundation, roughly 2/3 of Americans have reported that they have problems getting sleep that refreshes or renews them for the upcoming day. Considering that sleep is definitely one of the most important lifestyle factors that promote good health, this is an unsettling notion.

The American Chiropractic Association reports that sleeping puts roughly 50 pounds of weight on your spine alone. When a person does fall asleep, they unconsciously change positions throughout the night in order to avoid pain and tension from sleeping in uncomfortable ways. According to the National Sleep Foundation, over 50% of adults have issues with chronic pain.

If you find yourself having difficulty falling asleep or waking up in constant pain, you may want to consider investing in an adjustable bed. For many, buying an adjustable bed is a recipe for getting better sleep.

Quick Facts About Buying an Adjustable Bed:

• The most obvious difference between an adjustable bed and a normal bed is that you can control the position of the bed. Using an adjustable bed gives you access to thousands of comfortable sleeping or lounging positions. Like a couch or chair, an adjustable bed can support the upper half of your body if desired. This can help you to feel more comfortable.
• There are many different kinds of adjustable beds out there, such as double adjustable beds. You want to shop around before settling on one bed, especially if you are sharing your bed with someone else. There are many great stores around that sell adjustable beds, so check your local area or online to see what you can find.
• Many people are concerned with the cost of an adjustable bed. Buying an adjustable be doesn’t necessarily have to empty your wallet all at once, however. Many sellers are more than willing to establish a payment plan that works for both parties.
