UC Berkeley Study Buying Guide for Mattresses......Once upon a mattress

 

Our Memory Contour Mattresses are made from "Visco -Elastic", a revolutionary heat and pressure sensitive substance, that forms a precise mold around your body while offering support . Very high-density, visco-elastic open-cell material, responds not only to pressure but also your body temperature. Unlike a regular spring mattresses, which forces your body into an unnatural position, a Memory Contour mattress adapts to your body, keeping your spine in perfect alignment.

The conventional mattress creates "pressure points" on those areas of greatest weight concentration.

The Contour Memory Mattress conforms to the exact shape of your body, providing total support, and eliminating "pressure points."

Temperature sensitive mattress pads, pillows, and cushions help you sleep better and reduce neck and back pain.

What is temperature sensitive foam?
Temperature sensitive foam is a comfort material that was originally developed for the NASA space program. At first touch
you'll know that it's like no other sleep product you've ever felt before- what we can best describe as a marshmellow-like feel. When exposed to the temperature and weight of your body it is readily compressed. Pressure is distributed evenly over the entire supported surface, forming a mold around you. When the pressure is removed, it takes several seconds to resume its shape (see Isotonic foam hand imprint illustration above).

The material used to make temperature sensitive products is also referred to as visco-elastic foam, memory foam, pressure relieving foam, slow recovery foam, and slow release foam. Temperature sensitive sleep products are marketed by many companies under a wide variety of tradenames.

Although temperature sensitive foam originates from numerous manufacturing plants, the foam with the best pressure relief properties is available from only a very select few. That is why there is such a difference in the feel between competing temperature sensitive foam products such as pillows. For instance, some are too soft, some are too firm, and some it would be just as comfortable sleeping on rocks.

Of course, choice of pillows and other sleep comfort products is entirely a personal preference. In our opinion, Memory Lite temperature sensitive foam products are a giant cut above the rest, not to mention the best value for your money.
