How Do Adjustable Beds Work?

A Smarter Way to Sleep

An adjustable bed is designed to move and adapt to your body’s needs, offering custom positioning, targeted support, and enhanced comfort at the touch of a button. Unlike traditional flat beds, adjustable beds allow you to elevate your head, raise your legs, or position your body in a zero gravity setting to reduce pressure and improve overall sleep quality.

Whether you're looking to ease back pain, improve circulation, reduce snoring, or enhance comfort, an adjustable bed offers a more supportive and therapeutic way to rest.

1. Adjustable Head and Foot Elevation

With a remote or app-controlled system, you can adjust the head and foot sections of the bed to find your ideal sleep position. This allows you to:
✅ Elevate the head – Helps with snoring, acid reflux, and easier breathing
✅ Raise the legs – Improves circulation, reduces swelling, and eases lower back pressure
✅ Combine positions – Create a fully customised sleep experience for comfort and support

2. Zero Gravity Position for Weightless Comfort

Based on NASA's findings (also known as the Standard Fowlers position), the zero gravity position slightly elevates both the head and legs to:
✔️ Reduce spinal pressure and back pain
✔️ Improve circulation and reduce swelling
✔️ Create a "weightless" sensation for deep relaxation

3. Hi-Lo Lift Function (Available in Some Models)

Hi-Lo adjustable beds offer vertical height adjustability, raising and lowering the entire bed for:
🔹 Easier transfers for individuals with mobility challenges
🔹 Carer and occupational therapist support
🔹 Hospital-grade functionality in a home-friendly design

4. Whole-Body Vibration Massage

Many adjustable beds come with a vibration massage function, helping to:
✔️ Relieve muscle tension and stiffness
✔️ Improve blood circulation
✔️ Promote relaxation for deeper sleep

5. Wireless Remote and Smart Features

Modern adjustable beds are designed for ease of use with:
✅ Wireless remote controls for effortless adjustments
✅ Memory presets to save your favourite sleep positions
✅ USB charging ports for convenience
✅ Bluetooth compatibility for app-controlled adjustments
