Did You Know: Most individuals who have switched to a low profile bed tend not to switch back, and for good reasons. There are numerous health benefits associated with using low profile beds, particularly for those with restricted mobility. Here are a few additional facts worth considering:

• Natural Cooling: Sleeping closer to the ground allows for better air circulation and a cooler sleeping environment, which can improve sleep quality and help regulate body temperature throughout the night.
• Refreshing Wake-Up: Getting out of a low bed requires engaging your muscles and can encourage better posture. This gentle physical activity can help you wake up feeling refreshed and more energised.
• Safety and Accessibility: Low profile beds, especially those with adjustable features, provide easier access and reduce the risk of falls or injuries for elderly individuals or those with limited mobility.
• Supportive Sleep: Many low profile beds for the elderly come equipped with pressure-relief hospital bed mattresses and adjustable positioning, offering optimal support and promoting healthy sleep patterns.
• Customisable Comfort: Low profile adjustable beds can cater to a wide range of individual needs, making them an ideal solution for those with chronic pain, mobility issues, or specific sleep requirements.
