The Mattress That Remembers Your Body

Welcome to memory foam mattress pads review website. At this website you will learn about memory foam mattress pads and why you should be sleeping on them.

I am the lucky owner of a visco-elastic mattress also known as memory foam.  A memory foam mattress is very expensive and before I had the mattress I bought a topper. In my case I just needed something more soothing for my body parts so one day while I was in Costco I happened upon a memory foam mattress pad. I figured it couldn’t hurt and when I got home I put it on my bed, stretched out and my life has never been the same since. I used to wake up in the morning with some achy body parts but now my body feels great and I spring out of bed every morning.

What are memory foam mattress pads made of? Memory foam is also called visco elastic foam. Memory foam was first developed in 1966 for NASA. When this was first invented it was temperature sensitive memory foam therefore the name temper foam. You have probably heard of the famous Tempur-pedic mattress which was the first visco-elastic mattress company.

In the early years memory foam was too expensive to be used by the general public. Memory foam was used medically for people who were immobile or unable to get out of bed. In 1991 the Tempur-pedic mattress was released to the world. What’s great about memory foam and memory foam mattress topper’s is they take the shape of your body. When you lie down on memory foam it molds around you supporting you and cushioning you at the same time. Besides the fantastic support and comfort of memory foam mattress pads there’s the added benefit of less dust mites. Dust mites don’t propagate in memory foam.

Memory foam pads sit on top of your bed and make it like a new bed again, actually much better. You won’t have to flip the pad as that is not an issue with memory foam. Memory foam mattress pads have become extremely popular and after sleeping on both the mattress pad topper and now a full-fledged memory foam mattress I can personally testify as to why they are so fantastic. If you have body aches of any kind, if you have trouble sleeping, if you have a restless partner who wakes you up, or any of the other millions of things that can keep us from sleeping you need to consider memory foam mattress pads. It truly is a life changing invention.
