Simmons Memory Foam Mattress

The Simmons memory foam mattress is the top of the line, state of the art sleep system that will provide you with comfort and support like you didn’t think possible.

Memory foam was developed originally in the 1970s by NASA for use with the astronauts and the space program (to help with G Forces). The popularity of the foam has grown to the point that now it is features in everything from slippers you wear on your feet to the mattress you lay down on at night.

The Simmons memory foam mattress works in three layers. The first layer is the proprietary memory foam. The memory foam is where "the magic happens". The memory foam is made up of thousands of tiny "memory cells" that respond and react to memory foam. When you lay down on the mattress the memory cells go to work.

They absorb your body heat and then soften up to conform to your body’s exact shape. It’s like having a mattress that was specifically designed for your body. When you get up the foam reverts back to its original form thus the term "memory foam" becaue it remembers how to get back to the original way it was before you laid on it.

A Simmons foam mattress is the perfect place to spend the night if you have any physical problems also. With unparalleled support these mattresses are perfect to anyone who is post-op or who has sustained an injury. As a matter of fact hospitals were the first to use memory foam in their beds because of its ability to support the parts of the body that were not being supported properly by a regular air or innerspring mattress.

The foam in the Simmons visco memory foam mattresses takes your body weight and spreads it out all over the face of the mattress so that you don’t have any one or two parts pushing down harder on the mattress than the other parts. This is called a pressure point. A pressure point usually forms (when you are sleeping on a traditional mattress) on your head, shoulders, hips, or legs because these are the heaviest parts of your body. The traditional mattress doesn’t give way enough so that it’s pushing back on your body parts thus causing pressure.

When you wake up in the morning you feel achy and even have some pain.

With a Simmons memory foam mattress those days of sleeping poorly are over!
