Simmons Ultimate Bed & Mattress Guide

Jan. 13, 2010 - PRLog -- Simmons have been making beds and mattresses since 1870 and have now become one of the most respected manufacturers in the business.

Simmons have continually researched new technologies and materials for use in their beds and mattresses. Simmons are now well known for the superior levels of comfort and support that their beds provide and offer you a healthier life.

While Simmons Bedding Company is best known for its high quality mattresses, the company doesn't stop with making mattresses and foundations. Their commitment to providing a better night's sleep for everyone has led them into other product lines that work with their well-known Beautyrest, Comforpedic, BackCare and Natural Care mattress lines and Simmons Kids mattresses.
      
The Beautyrest collection uses a clever combination of Pocket Springs and Memory Foam. Each model in the Beautrest collection features temperature sensitive Advanced Memory Foam which provides fast recovery and high levels of comfort and support.  The advanced memory foam is created in a vacuum-sealed chamber that aids airflow and resilience; the memory foam responds quickly to your movements and also helps to dissipate heat to keep you at your ideal sleeping temperature.

The Beautyrest Black collection of mattresses uses luxurious fabrics such as cashmere
and modal yarn that offer excellent levels of comfort. The Beautyrest black collection also uses Variform Advanced Pocketed Coil springs that gently conform to your body shape while offering increased durability and motion separation.

The Natural Care collection is an eco-friendly sleep system featuring a natural rubber tree based latex layer made from biodegradable materials like rubber tree sap and a layer of base foam enhanced with soy. The latex is really comfortable and supportive, but it is also resistant to dust mites, mould and mildew.

The Comforpedic collection features Advanced Memory Foam and includes extra features such as a unique inner layer of latex foam for even more comfort and support and a Patented Edge Support System that maximises the sleeping surface of the mattress from edge to edge.  

The Simmons kids range includes Slumbertime mattresses that are very affordable but are made to last and are really comfortable for your kids. The kids range features Beautyrest pocketed coil springs. Each spring is made from heavy-gauge steel and placed in a durable, soft fabric pocket. Unlike springs in some mattresses, Pocketed Coil springs are not joined at the top or the bottom. This allows each spring to adjust individually to the weight and contour of your child's body.

Simmons and backcare.

If you suffer from back pain, your mattress could well be to blame. Most mattresses don't offer the level of support needed to keep your spine properly aligned during sleep. Simmons have designed their line of BackCare mattresses especially for people who experience sore backs and aching muscles from lying on the wrong mattress all night long.

BackCare mattresses are made using Simmons Zone Support system, a combination of Pocketed Coil support and special foam zones that is designed to offer just the right level of support to your entire body. BackCare mattresses take into account the fact that your lumbar region needs special support to help keep your spine aligned so that you get a more restful sleep that doesn't put a strain on your back. They're made with a combination of three comfort zones and two support zones so that your body is cradled and supported throughout the night, and you wake up refreshed and restored in the morning.

Simmons Bedding Company, famous for its mattresses and bedding products, offers two special lines of BackCare mattresses, one for adults and one for children. Both include several ranges of mattresses that utilize the Simmons Zone System to offer both superior sleeping comfort and outstanding back support. What precisely is the Zone System?

Each Simmons BackCare mattress is designed with five zones designed to provide your body with both the support and the comfort it needs to sleep well.

Zone 1 - Foot Comfort Zone
Starting at the foot of the bed, Zone 1 is a comfort zone made of layers of foam designed to support and cradle your feet and lower legs. The foam conforms to the curves and dips of your natural leg contours, ensuring that your feet and calves are comfortably supported.

Zone 2 - Leg Support Zone
Zone 2 provides the additional support your upper thighs need during the night to keep them in the same alignment they're in when you stand. Without that support, the muscles of your lower back and thighs will be working all night long to maintain proper alignment and reduce strain on your spine.

Zone 3 - Hip Comfort Zone
Your hips need special pampering. Anyone who suffers from back pain will tell you that they also often suffer from pain in their hip joints. The special foam comfort zone in the hip region reduces pressure on the hip region, giving you a more comfortable night's sleep.

Zone 4 - Lumbar Support Zone
The mattress below the curve of your spine is the part of your body that needs extra filling and support while you sleep. Without that extra support, your body will be fighting its natural tendency to "sag", and you'll wake up with sore and aching lower back muscles.

Zone 5 - Head Comfort Zone
The final comfort zone cradles your head and shoulders, conforming to their dips and curves to reduce pressure and discomfort.

The Zone System ensures that Simmons BackCare mattresses provide the support and the comfort that your back needs to get through the night without complaining to you all the next day.
