Pharmaflex products are Class I medical devices, compliant with EU Regulation 2017/745, designed to provide ergonomic support and promote musculoskeletal well-being during sleep. The claimed benefits are supported by biomechanical testing conducted by independent accredited bodies, such as the German Institute for Health and Ergonomics (IGR) and Ergocert in Italy, and include:

Pressure point reduction: Specific tests have shown that Pharmaflex mattresses promote optimal body weight distribution, reducing pressure peaks on sensitive areas and improving overall comfort.
Spinal alignment: Our products promote the maintenance of optimal physiological posture during sleep, contributing to better spinal support and proper body weight distribution.
Spinal decompression: Our products promote pressure relief on the spine, resulting in better spinal decompression than a generic system.
Tests conducted by the German Institute for Health and Ergonomics (IGR) found that:

"The innovative slat arrangement of the Pharmaflex system creates pressure relief on the spine, resulting in better spinal decompression than a generic system."

Although the products are classified as medical devices, they are not intended to replace medical or physiotherapy treatments prescribed by specialists. Numerous publications demonstrate that techniques such as traction and spinal decompression are associated with benefits for musculoskeletal pain and functional improvement.
