What is it and What is the Mattress Topper for?


How a padded mattress cover topper can improve your life by saving you money

Couple finding out What the Mattress Topper is and What it is for.

When it comes to sleeping well, one of the most important prerogatives is to have a comfortable bed. After all, sleep is that time that helps us relax, allowing our bodies to regenerate and reactivate.

The idea of an uncomfortable bed makes this mechanism difficult and affects the very well-being of the body.

Mattress to be changed


How to tell if the Mattress is to be Changed

There are many reasons that could lead you to think that your mattress needs to be changed, first of allwear and tear or deformation, but also changed life needs: spending long hours standing, sitting or at a video terminal (your pc or other portable devices), can lead to discomfort and other back and neck symptoms, which a standard mattress cannot remedy.

A new cohabitation can lead to two people with even very different weights and needs sharing the same bed; finally, it often happens that you have purchased a wrong mattress, of too soft a texture or too low quality but, unfortunately, do not have the economic availability to invest in a completely new mattress in the immediate future. In all these cases a mattress topper, can prove to be an effective and affordable solution.

What is the Topper

As the name (from the English "top, " meaning "on top") suggests, the mattress topper, or bed topper, is a thin, padded mattress cover (of varying height) that is to be placed on top of your regular mattress to improve its firmness and provide greater support and cushioning during sleep, relieving pressure from certain sore spots on the body. Thus, mattress cover toppers are intended to make sleep more comfortable by giving a greater sense of comfort.

The idea of using an aid support, such as a topper on top of the mattress, stems precisely from the need to allow people with postural problems or more serious problems still to rest comfortably.

What is the purpose of the Mattress Topper?

From temperature regulation to pain relief, mattress toppers offer numerous benefits. Here are all the benefits of the topper:

  • 1.Improves the comfort and pleasantness of our mattress making rest better;
  • It allows you to customize the bed, giving it the exact texture you need;
  • It helps relieve pain related to any postural problems; 
  • Regulates the temperature of the bed, allowing moisture to transpire from the topper without letting it enter the mattress; 
  • It helps protect the mattress while preserving its characteristics for as long as possible;
  • 6.It is easy to wash and move because of its lightweight and practical qualities.

In addition to the need for quality sleep, nagging back and neck pain are increasingly common, often requiring frequent and expensive therapy sessions to resolve.

One of the most common spinal disorders is due precisely to poor posture, maintained both during the day and at night. Poor posture keeps the paravertebral muscles in constant tension, and this tension, in turn, creates compression of the vertebrae, which is the primary cause of the most common and disabling symptoms of back pain.

Therefore,
choosing the right sleep device is essential for managing back pain and can make all the difference, as it allows the problem to be solved simply and inexpensively, saving money on treatment and improving the quality of sleep and, consequently, that of daily life.

The more serious the musculoskeletal symptoms, the more specific the device will have to be to meet the needs that an ordinary mattress cannot cope with.

Thus orthopedic toppers, medical mattress-covering devices designed to provide joint support and to effectively find a solution to problems related to neck and back pain, are born.

Orthopedic toppers work by bringing relief to the back, ensuring that the spine is properly aligned so that the correct spacing of the vertebrae is maintained and most back pain symptoms are reduced.

In addition to the functions mentioned above, there are more specific needs that may lead a person to use a topper, depending on the position he or she takes during sleep:

  • For supine sleepers: the bed topper provides relief for the lower back, making the mattress softer and cozier.
  • For side sleepers: allows you to avoid circulation problems and numbness, often due to excessive mattress stiffness.

As you may have guessed, making the right choice is crucial-perhaps you have already learned this to your cost by choosing the very wrong mattress. The good news is that a high quality topper will allow you to make up for the shortcomings of your mattress without having to change it.

Pharmaflex's Orthopedic Mattress Topper is designed with all the features seen so far in mind, and has therefore been designed and tested to help reduce and solve all those back and neck-related ailments that cause discomfort throughout the day and can recur every day from the moment you wake up, as poor posture tends to cancel out the benefits of any physiotherapy treatments or targeted massages.


Pharmaflex Orthopedic Mattress Topper

The Evolution of Memory Toppers

The technology behind Pharmaflex Toppers isAirCell, the evolution of Memory Foam, a breathable material with a special open-cell formula that makes the topper completely permeable to air, making it feel refreshing and pleasant even in the hottest months. Thanks to AirCell, moreover, our mattress topper adapts even more quickly to the body's movements during the night than regular memory toppers, ensuring maximum comfort every position, but keeping its shape unchanged over time.

In addition to its special formula, the Pharmaflex Orthopedic Topper features:

  • The presence of seven different spinal support zones to reduce the feeling of pressure in different areas of the body;
  • 2 different layers: with a decontracting action, to reduce muscle tension, and a decompression action, to maintain the right distance between one vertebra and the other;
  • A unique height of 8 cm, higher than the market average;
  • The availability for each version of bed: single, double, full-size, double or custom-made.
  • An anti-bacterial, anti-allergenic and anti-viral carbon fiber cover to discharge electromagnetic charges accumulated during the day.
  • Official classification as a Class-1 Medical Device.


The layers of the Pharmaflex Orthopedic Mattress Topper


The 2 Layers of Different Density 

Variable density polyurethane-based layering allows our mattress cover topper to serve a dual function:

  • Spinal decompression: promotes proper spacing between the dorsal and lumbar vertebrae, reducing their compression. This is made possible by the first layer made of AirCell.
  • Muscle Decontraction: distributing the weight of the body over the entire surface , thus reducing pressure points and relaxing the muscles . This is made possible by the second viscoelastic polyurethane state, which also performs a ventilation function, allowing freshness to be preserved in summer and warmth in winter.


The 7 support zones of the Pharmaflex Orthopedic Mattress Topper


The 7 zones of support

The areas that our orthopedic topper goes to support are:

  • Head and neck: the waves in this area allow the pillow to leave the right amount of space while avoiding creating musculoskeletal imbalances.
  • Shoulders: correspond to the second height level of the topper waves, designed to balance the weight and amplitude with the following area, keeping the spine aligned at all times.
  • Vertebral Column: the third area of the topper, where the waves are larger than the previous ones, here the arches exert constant pressure to stress the vertebrae away from each other and reduce compression.
  • Pelvis: the waves of this area correspond to those of the head and neck, so as to avoid musculoskeletal imbalances by balancing the weight and amplitude of the previous area.
  • Legs: waves as high as those that characterize the spine area to give maximum comfort and support to the legs, in testing they have been shown to facilitate circulation by reducing support points.
  • Knees: medium-height waves, as in the shoulders, which ensure perfect knee alignment no matter what position you sleep in.
  • Feet: area that has lower waves ensuring maximum freedom of movement and unique comfort. 
Carbon fiber bed topper cover

Carbon Fiber Pillowcase

The carbon fiber fabric of the covers that accompany all our products is also an innovation for better sleep. In fact, the carbon fiber, forms a real wall against electromagnetic fields and allows the non-risky dispersion of electrostatic charges. Discharging the accumulated electrostatic charge will allow you to sleep more deeply and rest better.

In addition, from a hygienic point of view, carbon guarantees the following properties:

  • Antiviral
  • Antibacterial
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Durable and elastic
  • Thermally insulating (both in winter and summer) 
  • It lasts up to 5 times longer than a regular under-bedding.
