Rocky Mountain Mattress wants to know through this little un official poll we are conducting - Which is best for you, i.e. stomach, side or back?

The way you sleep at night can have a profound impact on your health and how you feel when you wake up. Sleeping positions can also show a correlation between the way you sleep and your personality.

Take a look at the different sleeping positions and the affect they have on your personality.

Starfish Position-If you lie flat on your back with your arms and legs extended, you sleep in the starfish position. Although it indicates a good listener and someone who makes friends easily, it also leads to poor sleep and snoring.

Freefall Position-This is not a very common sleeping position. This sleeping position is where you lie flat on your stomach with your arms by your head or ears. It represents someone who is brash and gregarious outwardly. However, criticism makes them very nervous and sensitive inwardly. Although this is not a common sleeping position, it has been found to aid in digestion.

How to Use Memory Foam Mattress Pads

Memory foam mattress pads were first used in the 1980s in hospitals. The memory foam mattress pads were seen as a miracle product that helped alleviate the pressure points and bed sores from bedridden patients. When these pads were finally introduced to the general public, they sold at ridiculously high prices. Fortunately, memory foam mattress pads are extremely well-priced today. If you are looking to enjoy the benefits of memory foam, but can’t afford to purchase an entire mattress set, go with a memory foam mattress pad.

Memory foam mattress pads, memory foam mattress toppers, memory foam pads, memory foam toppers are all different ways of describing the same product. You can easily enjoy the comfort and support of a memory foam mattress at a fraction of the price. Here are the steps to use a memory foam mattress pad.

1. Buy a good quality memory foam mattress pad. You can find great deals on these pads online. Rocky Mountain Mattress has fabulous prices and excellent products. Start there to find your mattress pad.

2. Place the pad on your existing mattress. In order to get the most benefit from your memory foam mattress pad, you need to make sure that you place the pad on a mattress that still has support. A mattress pad can only do so much and needs to be put on a traditional mattress that still has some life in it.

3. Break it in. As with other products, you need to break the memory foam in for a few weeks. If you want to speed up the process of breaking it in, sleep directly on the foam rather than putting a bed sheet on it. Remember that the foam needs a chance to adjust to your body. This should take at least a few weeks.

4. Lower your room temperature. Memory foam mattresses are made to be temperature sensitive. This is because it uses your body heat to warm up the material so that it can adjust to your natural body shape. Because of this, it may cause you to be too hot while you sleep on it. Most people do not have a problem with this. If it is a problem for you, try lowering your thermostat before going to bed each night or sleeping without the top sheet.

5. Use a cover. Take care of your memory foam mattress. It is going to be a great investment for you to get a great night’s sleep. Protect it from spills or rips by using a protective cover. You can also find these bed covers at Rocky Mountain Mattress. (see pictures below)

Using a memory foam mattress pad can give you all of the benefits from using a memory foam mattress, but with minimal cost. If you want to get the most from your mattress pad, use it correctly. Also, make sure you take care of it so that it can last for a long time. Find the right memory foam mattress topper and enjoy sleeping on the best material out there.

Here is an often asked question we at Rocky Mountain Mattress get; “Why are Tempur Pedic mattresses so pricey and are they really any better than RMM’s?”

Tempur-pedic mattresses are extremely pricey. Many people think that these Tempur-pedic sleep systems are the best mattresses out there because of their expensive price tag. They think that the price tag ensures the best quality comfort and durability. Would you be surprised to find out that studies have shown that Tempur-pedic mattresses are not all that they appear to be?

As with other name brands, you are paying for the name tag. Off brand products are often as good as name brand products. The only difference is, you are paying top dollar for the name tag. Studies have shown that similar, less expensive mattresses are as good, if not better, than Tempur-pedic mattresses.

Then, try a mattress from Tempur-pedic. You probably won’t be able to notice much of a difference. Except of course, for the price. You’ll pay at least $3,000 for a twin Tempur-pedic. On the other hand, you’ll get the 14″ Rendezvous twin mattress for half that price.

Foamex has recently expanded its line of open-cell, breathable, “green” memory foams through the Aerus Natural family of memory foams. Aerus Natural foams are environmentally friendly foams manufactured with renewable resources. One of the key ingredients in these foams is derived from natural-based renewable resources, thereby “replacing portions of the petroleum-based polyols traditionally used in foam-making.”

By introducing this new line, Foamex is expanding on the success of the original Aerus memory foam launched in 2006. The first Aerus was specifically designed as an open-cell memory foam for a cooler, more comfortable sleep surface. The new Aerus Natural family is an enhanced and expanded line featuring a range of densities - 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, and 8.0 pound.

Rocky Mountain Mattress proudly carries this line of Aerus Natural products. Just one more green solution from Rocky Mountain Mattress.

What position do you like sleeping in that is … what did you think this post was going to be about? Being in the mattress industry I often wonder how do most people sleep, i.e. side, stomach, or back sleepers … so I did some research.

Before I get into it, I wanted to share a picture of a funny sleeping position:

Did you know there is a correlation between the position you sleep in and your personality? It may sound wacky, but it is actually true. The Sleep Assessment and Advisory Service recently conducted a study to show the correlation. They found that as a person chooses a certain sleeping position, it shows their subconscious body language, which affects their personality traits. The SAAS conducted the study by choosing a large number of random, hotel guests.

They identified six major sleeping positions. These are the fetal position, the soldier position, the starfish position, the freefall position, and log position and the yearner position. Interestingly enough, these positions did, in fact, relate to their individual personality traits.

Over 51 percent of the women that participated in the study slept in the fetal position. Forty-one percent of all participants slept like this. They curled up on their sides and clenched a pillow. This sleeping position leads to a person who is shy and sensitive, although they tend to hide behind a tough exterior to the rest of the world.

Eight percent of the participants slept in the soldier position. They laid flat on their backs with their arms directly at their sides. This position indicates that the person is quiet and reserved. Although they are quiet, they set high standards for themselves and those around them. Five percent of people slept in the starfish position. These people were found lying on their back with their arms and legs outstretched. These people tend to be those who are good listeners and who could make friends easily. In addition, these people do not like to be the center of attention.

The study found seven percent of people in the freefall position. These people laid on their stomachs with their arms near their ears or head. The freefall position indicates someone who makes brash decision, yet is inwardly nervous about criticism. Fifteen percent of people slept in the log position. They laid on their sides with their legs extended and their arms at their sides. These people have proved to be easygoing and very social. Thirteen percent of people slept in the yearner position. This is similar to the log position but with the arms extended as well. This sleeping position proves to lead to a cynical and suspicious personality.

The SAAS did not only link sleeping positions to personality traits. The study also showed what sleeping positions affect one’s health. They found the freefall position to aid in digestion. The starfish position and the soldier position led to a bad night’s rest and snoring.

As you can see, over seventy-nine percent of the participants slept on their sides. Thirteen percent of people slept on their backs. Only seven percent of people slept on their stomachs. Take a look at how you sleep and if this study proves the link between your sleep and your personality.

Even the short testimonials are some sweet ones, and we love a couple that we recently received from a couple satisfied Rocky Mountain Mattress customers. We thank you both for your testimonials and the people you send our way. It does not go un-noticed!

My Mom loves the new mattress that I put on her bed. I will be shopping with you for some more mattresses and also telling my friends and family how wonderful your mattresses are.

Debbie Braswell

We really love this one because a couple founding members of Rocky Mountain Mattress attended college for a spell at Eastern Arizona College, which is close to Duncan Arizona, where this testimonial came out of. There are many people in that area that have campers, and RVs and love to spend time in the outdoors. We are just glad we can make the experience a more comfortable one!

Thank you so much! The mattress and pillows arrived yesterday and they are wonderful. From the sale to delivery everything has been beautiful. The fit is prefect. Thanks so much. We will be in touch, to have custom cushions made for the RV.
Great job,

Because Rocky Mountain Mattress sells beds, and other various bedding related products (pillows etc) with the Bioflex Medical Magnets in them, I am often asked the question - Do Bioflex medical magnets really work in a mattress?

Sleep is one of the most important aspects of overall health and well-being. You can’t function properly or effectively without a productive night’s sleep. Over 50 million Americans suffer from a chronic sleep disorder. This can include sleep apnea, insomnia or narcolepsy. Studies have shown that on average, 25 percent of Americans do not get enough sleep. What is being done to help combat the rising problem of sleep disorders?

Bioflex Magnetic Sleep Pads were strategically designed with the help of scientists, engineers and medical professionals. These medical magnets are said to be the “most advanced and effective products of their kind for their ability to help us get a good night’s rest naturally.” But, do they really work in a mattress?

Reports prove that these static magnets, which never needs replenishing, have an astounding affect on the blood. The magnet affects charged particles in the blood, helping the blood vessels to expand. This allows a larger amount of nutrient-rich blood to flow, which increases healing and growth time. Increased blood flow also helps you feel well-rested after a good night’s sleep.

Athletes and body builders swear by these magnets. They understand that recovery time is faster as blood flow to a muscle is increased. Bioflex magnets do just that. Amateurs, college athletes, Olympic athletes and professionals have seen the benefits for using a magnet in their mattress. They all try to increase training naturally and have found Bioflex to be the best product.

Magnets are used along with traditional methods (ultrasound, hydrotherapy, massage, etc) to help speed up the healing process. Magnets are becoming extremely popular in healing injuries such as carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, muscle strains, ligament strains or tendon strains. All you have to do is apply the magnet to the affected area.

If you are still unsure about the benefits of a Bioflex medical magnet, talk to your doctor or personal trainer. Try one of these magnets in your mattress and see how long it takes for you to start feeling better. Don’t risk your sleep just because you are skeptical of this product. Try it for yourself.
