3 Symptoms of an Uncomfortable Mattress

Imagine seeing a television advert in which a spokes person asks if your bed mattress is really comfortable. You eventually come to the conclusion that you dont really know. In fact, youve never thought about whether youre comfortable enough in bed to get a good nights sleep.

Sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress without knowing it is not that unusual. Most mattresses just at the verge of breaking down begin to make their occupants just uncomfortable enough to interrupt sleep yet not enough to make it obvious that a lack of comfort is the problem.Here are three symptoms that suggest you might be sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress:1.

Youre Drowsy During the DayIf you are uncomfortable in bed, you may doze off without ever falling into REM sleep. REM sleep is that deep sleep we all need. Finding yourself constantly drowsy during the day at least tells you youre not getting enough restful sleep, and the reason may be the comfort of your mattress.

You may be just comfortable enough to fall asleep but not enough to find that place of REM rest.2. You Wake up with Back PainYou dont actually have to be restless all night to know youre sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress.

Waking up every morning with back pain is a good sign that your mattress is no longer providing the kind of support you need. Remember that a mattress should provide enough support to keep your spine and head properly aligned throughout the night. One that is beginning to break down doesnt provide that support.

You Toss and Turn All NightThere are plenty of people who toss and turn all night, attributing their sleeping problems to stress or an inability to turn the brain off. Stress and thinking too much certainly can interrupt sleep.

However, physical discomfort can have you tossing and turning without you even realising it. If you find yourself waking up multiple times during the night just to turn over, theres a fairly strong likelihood youre not comfortable.The Original article Published at Beds Glasgow Blog RELATED QUESTION Why don't hotel rooms have ceiling lights?

My hotel building is over 100 years old, so we have ceiling lights. We also need a ladder to change a bulb 11' from the floor. It can take 20 minutes for 1 bulb!

This is one reason that we have changed to the longer lasting (and more economical) low-energy bulbs. I would be delighted to have wall lights instead. Retro-fitting them would however be even less economically sound.

Higher than average ceilings mean ladders to change the bulbs in ceiling fittings, and this extends the maintenance time and convenience for staff enormously. Even normal height ceilings mean that a chair is needed to swap a bulb out. Wall fittings are so much more convenient for both staff and customers, reducing the time taken to get light again!

As Michael Forrest Jones says - anything other than a simple bulb swap requires the power to be cut to the whole circuit (which may be more than just a few rooms). This makes it very awkward to do emergency repairs after dark! -- Been there done that.

Go with wall fittings that can be isolated in-room! In short: I have ceiling lights. I don't like them, as they are awkward for maintenance.

Replacing them would be expensive and extremely difficult - basically a total rewire of the hotel lighting system. Design engineers are not stupid. they note the first 2 points!
