Bed of roses: Kinds of mattresses to know for better sleep
MANILA, Philippines — Studies show that people spend about a third of their lives sleeping, so it’s important to be comfortable while taking a nap.
Apart from pillows, a bed mattress is one of the most important things to have to make sure one gets the comfortable sleep we all want.
Our Home recently held a Sleep Exhibit in SM Mall of Asia, aiming to offer solutions for a quality sleep.
"It is time to make a serious investment in our sleep — from the way we relax to the quality of our mattress and give ourselves the luxury we deserve," a representative for the brand told Philstar.com.
Many of the store's premium mattresses are sanitized, which keeps the mattresses clean, hypoallergenic, and effectively protected against growth of bacteria, odor, mildew and dust mites.
Here are some kinds of mattresses to choose from, designed to address different posture and movement disturbance concerns, or whether you are a back or side sleeper:
