An adjustable bed is a bed that can change its alignment, such as raising the head or feet of the bed. The part that moves is the base. It has joints to move the mattress into the desired alignment or position. The different positions can help people with back pain. For someone with back pain to enjoy an adjustable bed, they need to also use the right mattress. What mattress to use depends on a person’s sleep style.
