ADJUSTABLE BED FOR ACID REFLUX BUYER`S GUIDE

Why Adjustable Bed for Acid Reflux?

Adjustable beds with elevation features are more common and preferred for acid reflux people. It is estimated that about 20 percent of the people in the United States suffer from acid reflux. Many doctors suggest that people suffering from acid reflux should be sleeping on incline beds, and many adjustable beds do not have this incline feature. The Symphony Sleep adjustable bed is designed with this incline feature in split king, queen, and twin xl sizes.

Difference of Each Acid Reflux Bed

Rest right Mattress provides high quality adjustable beds for GERD sufferers. The Symphony Sleep 500 and Symphony Sleep 600 are some of the best options available. Symphony Sleep 500 has a full range of motion delivering comfort for GERD and fewer additional features of an adjustable bed. That is why the price is more affordable. The Symphony Sleep 600 though works better than other adjustable beds for GERD sufferers. It has two elevation factors. The first is a complete range of head and foot positioning along with pillow tilt. Secondly, the base also has elevation capabilities. The beds will allow sufferers to pick the position they are most comfortable to help alleviate their symptoms. They are also great for sleeping. The Symphony Sleep 500 does have the second base elevation feature as well, though it does not have pillow tilt or the other attributes.

 

Sleeping with GERD

Sleeping with GERD or acid reflux can disrupt your sleep. This is because gravity can no longer be a factor when sleeping, and traditional mattresses are designed to be flat. Sleeping with GERD or acid reflux, there needs to be a way for gravity to help you put everything in the stomach down. Below, we are discussing various adjustable and adjustable beds with the elevations.

  • Adjustable Beds with Elevation: The Symphony Sleep adjustable beds are designed with the feature known as elevation. The elevation feature angles the bed to be completely on a flat angle. This is the only adjustable bed company that designs beds with this feature besides Glideaway. But currently, the Glideaway is no longer making them.
  • Adjustable Beds with no Elevation: Regular adjustable beds with no elevation are not preferred because the bed cannot lay at a flat angle. The head of the bed can move up, which can be helpful, but that is only a comfortable position if you sleep on your back. The side and stomach sleepers will be uncomfortable.

 

Why Beds for GERD Sufferers

As one sleeps, GERD can occur more often as gravity works against the disease.  Typically the sleeping position is a problem.  As a person lays flat, the gravity that assists keeping acid down during the day, is redirected.  This can actually increase the probability of acid reflux during the night.  Sleep is then interrupted by the resulting symptoms.  There are beds for GERD sufferers.  These beds help in multiple ways.  The primary goal is to combat the acid reflux.  As such, we want to raise the head.  The first way that beds for GERD sufferers helps is by offering an adjustable head position.  This helps for a couple reasons.  The elevation of your head creates an angle that allows gravity to work similarly to how it does during the day.  The acid is pushed downward in beds for GERD sufferers by the natural weight of gravity.  The angle also prevents the symptoms of GERD like coughing, choking and the burning feel.  These are good reasons to consider beds for GERD sufferers.  Fewer symptoms equates to more sound sleep and less interruption of the sleep cycle.  GERD symptoms can worsen if not managed properly.  The more the lining of the esophagus is exposed to stomach acid, the more it is damaged.  The symptoms then just get worse.  By using beds for GERD sufferers, you can reduce the exposure and therefore limit the damage.  So in a way these beds can help now as well as later.

 

How to Control the Symphony Sleep Elevation Feature?

There are two buttons on the Symphony Sleep remote which control the elevation features. It is position to angle the whole bed up or down. On the remote, the ‘up arrow’ is on the bottom left corner. The corresponding arrow should be on the bottom right corner. You can also stop the elevation at any angle you wish. There are no preset functions as well.

 

Helpful Strategies for Acid Reflux

The position you sleep in can help mitigate acid reflux symptoms.  Try making these slight adjustments to your regular sleep routine.  They might make the difference between waking often and sleeping through the night.  Not only would that improve an acid reflux prognosis, it could carry over into your day.  Better sleep means more energy and focus, which is beneficial in both your personal and professional aspirations.

 

  • Avoid Sleeping on the Right Side: Sleeping on the left side is preferable to sleeping on the right.  It reduces agitation to heartburn for a couple reasons.  First, sleeping on the right side is more likely to submerge the point where the stomach and esophagus meet in gastric acid.  Second, that junction, called the esophageal sphincter, is made up of muscles that tighten, preventing reflux occurrences.  So, when sleeping on the right side, the muscles relax loosening the closure which may allow acid to travel backwards.
  • Avoid Sleeping Flat on the Back: Pressure from abdominal fat can compress the digestive system and force stomach acid to recede back through the esophagus.  Additionally, an already damaged connection between the stomach and esophagus may allow flow back and forth.  This is actually the worst position to sleep in with acid reflux.
  • Do Sleep on Left Side at an Incline: In this position you get all the benefits of sleeping on your left side plus the added protection of sleeping upright.  Most traditional adjustable beds would be rather uncomfortable to sleep left and inclined.  That’s because almost all adjustable beds fold at the waist and raise at the head from there.  What makes the Symphony Sleep adjustable beds good for acid reflux is the capability to remain flat with elevation.
