One of the common sleeping illnesses people suffer from is GERD or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease. It is a condition where the acid from the stomach “flows back” to the esophagus causing pain and discomfort.

With the GERD or acid reflux disease, the lower esophageal sphincter or LES relaxes more often than it should. Thus, it allows harsh stomach acids to leak into the esophagus. And because the esophagus has a limited natural protection against these juices, it can easily be irritated when acids leak into it.

Thus, people diagnosed with GERD are often advised to elevate their upper body to prevent gastric acid to “reflux” into the esophagus especially during sleeping time. Now this is where Craftmatic beds may become useful.

Unlike flat beds which cannot be adjusted, Craftmatic therapeutic beds can be converted into 1001 relaxing and comfortable positions. They can also be elevated to keep stomach juices from rising up into the esophagus while supporting the natural curves of the body without causing discomfort and muscle strain.

Even if the Craftmatic bed is elevated, it can evenly distribute the body weight on the mattress, thus allowing GERD diagnosed people to breathe easily. And with the relaxed contoured position, they may also be able to rest comfortably on their Craftmatic bed all night long!

Plus, the Craftmatic bed has built-in massage motors mounted on the specific areas of the mattress. The Craftmatic massage motor may be adjusted from a gentle setting to an invigorating full body-stimulation which can help GERD patients get a more relaxing sleep.

With a Craftmatic therapeutic bed, people who are suffering from GERD may be able to find the perfect and most comfortable sleeping position while keeping the unwanted acids where it belongs.
