The Need for Acid Reflux Mattress Foundation

People who suffer from acid reflux or GERD may benefit from an acid reflux mattress foundation.  Acid reflux is the term used for instances where acidic gastric fluid comes back up into the esophagus.  GERD stands for Gastro esophageal reflux disease, a term coined basically as a more chronic version of acid reflux.  Both can cause painful symptoms which can escalate into more serious conditions.  An acid reflux mattress foundation can help by allowing gravity to work in a way that promotes relief.

 

Are There Acid Reflux Mattress Foundations?

The answer to this question is a resounding yes!  Glideaway manufactures Acid Reflux Mattress Foundations that incorporate an Elevation feature.  This patented feature is only available on Glideaway adjustable bases.  The reason this feature works well for acid reflux sufferers is because it provides the availability to angle the entire base.  When in use, this feature allows gravity to work against acid reflux, reducing the increase that tends to accompany laying flat.  The result is the user can sleep flat but yet still reap the benefits of a raised upper body.  Rest Right Mattress carries several Acid Reflux Mattress Foundations that have this feature.

 

What are the Differences of Each Acid Reflux Mattress Foundation?

The four acid reflux mattress foundations that include this elevation feature are the Odessa, Vesta, Elevation and Ascend models.  The Ascend has built-in elevation with no need for a kit.  The Glideaway Elevation model is one of very few models that comes with Bluetooth speakers.  It also includes the built-in elevation with included USB ports and Wallhugger.  A Glideaway Vesta comes complete with Bluetooth controls and Wallhugger with an available add on feature of Alexa compatibility.  Both the Vesta and Odessa require an Elevation kit. The Glideaway Odessa adjustable bed is compatible with Alexa and has pillow tilt, bluetooth controls, USB ports and Wall hugger.

 

Why do I Not See Many Acid Reflux Mattress Foundation?

 

You may wonder why there are not many acid reflux mattress foundations in the marketplace.  Most technology is developed by private companies and protected from infringement with patents.  Glideaway owns the patented design of the feature we call Elevation.  It is the company with the sole rights to use the design.  They produce several adjustable base models using this design so that there are more options for the consumer.  So whether you are looking for a lower cost or other specific features, you can find one that will work well for your needs and situation.

 

Can the Acid Reflux Mattress Foundation be Adjustable Height?

 

We can all agree that being comfortable while sleeping is a priority for an acid reflux mattress foundation.  When you elevate your Glideaway foundation, you have control over the height of the elevation.  A single button enables you to elevate.  Hold it down, and once you have reached your desired height, release the button.

 

Do You Have to Have The Head Up to Just Elevate The Bed?

Each of these options makes a good Acid Reflux Mattress Foundation because the head doesn’t have to be in raised position.  Many people prefer to enjoy an adjustable bed raised but still prefer to sleep flat.  With the elevation feature of a Glideaway, sleeping flat still comes with the benefit of sleeping with the head above the digestive track.  This results in less acid reflux and fewer symptoms because of it.  Side sleepers, who can’t sleep with the head portion of a traditional adjustable bed raised, will especially enjoy the option.

 

Are They Foundation Popular Among Acid Reflux Sufferers?

 

Many people prefer a Glideaway acid reflux mattress foundation.  The company is relatively new to addressing the needs of GERD sufferers.  It seems to do it very well with no other bed comparable.  In addition to the elevation feature, these beds boast durability and multiple adjustable bed features.  Glideaway has taken research, development and technology to create an enjoyable sleep experience.
