This Valentine’s Day, stay by your partner’s side in a split California king adjustable bed, one of our best adjustable beds for couples. This bed combines two twin adjustable bed bases with four inches of extra length (38”x84”) to create a 76”x84” bed crafted specifically for taller husbands or wives. Adjustable beds have become a popular solution for many people needing help with mobility, and the split California king adjustable bed is perfect for taller partners.

Independent controls allow each partner to adjust their own side to suit their needs. By providing each partner with their own mattress, a split king prevents motion transfer from tosses and turns on the other side. One partner’s restlessness needn’t keep the other one up anymore. Similarly, it is possible for one person to have their head slightly elevated while the other can sleep flat on their back. This is perfect for couples where one is a night owl who enjoys staying up reading or watching television while the other turns in early.

Support Your Partner with a Bed That Supports Them

At a glance, you might not even notice these beds are adjustable thanks to their classic design. This is especially true with the Premier model, which features Advantech® material that will not warp, break or squeak. Thick and luxurious, our Premier split California king adjustable beds feature a tack and jump pattern with a suede border and designer-taped edges. The mattresses stay in place thanks to a foot retainer and locking canisters, complete with a cover, helping to create a comfortable king-size sleeping area while also remaining visually appealing.

The Hi-Low SL model, our luxury alternative to a hospital bed, is a great solution for those that could use a little extra support from their bed. These models feature an adjustable height that makes it easier for one partner to transition the other in and out of bed. This type of bed can greatly improve a husband or wife’s quality of life, especially if their primary caregiver is their loved one right next to them.

Enjoy a Split California King Adjustable Bed for Couples

With Lifetime Limited Warranties, ergonomic one-touch wireless or wired controls that can operate whisper-quiet motors, and soft, medium, or firm mattress construction in a range of styles such as low profile, gel-infused memory foam, memory foam, latex, or a combination of innerspring and memory foam, any couple is sure to find the perfect bed for both sleepers (regardless of their height).

Flexabed’s split California king adjustable beds offer superior convenience and value while ensuring taller individuals receive the relief and support they need. Not only are they designed to blend in with any home environment, but they can also be adjusted to meet individual needs. Thanks to split California king adjustable beds, you won’t have to compromise your sleeping experience for the one you love!

A doctor’s recommendation isn’t needed to warrant an adjustable bed. Perhaps you know someone who would like to watch TV or read in bed without craning their neck. An adjustable bed provides a comfortable position wherever the sleeper wants to go. That freedom of comfort is one of the many reasons seniors and their families come to Flexabed for adjustable beds.

Flexabed – Your Luxury At-Home Alternative

In most situations, a hospital bed isn’t necessary, but the features they provide sure would be nice. A Flexabed Hi-Lo adjustable bed is a luxury alternative to a hospital bed and may help improve comfort and relieve pain for you or your loved one. These beds could also provide multiple lifestyle benefits that could help improve your or your partner’s sleep.

A Better Solution Than Earplugs

Do you or your partner snore? It can be embarrassing for the snorer and infuriating for the partner. It even drives some couples to sleep apart for the sake of shut-eye. A big benefit to an adjustable bed is that it could help reduce snoring, all you have to do is elevate the position of the snorer’s head slightly. Snoring is caused by tongue and soft tissues narrowing airways, which easily happens when sleeping flat on a bed. Elevating the head enables air to flow more freely.

Be More Comfortable Before Bed

If you enjoy watching TV before bed or reading a book while your partner sleeps in, you can do activities like these with ease on a Flexabed adjustable bed. Easily adjust the position of the bed to raise your head and see the television, and maybe also bring your feet up a little to reduce back pressure while you’re at it. No more straining your neck or shoulders when trying to relax, and no more strategically placed pillows.

Massages On-Demand

One luxury feature that a Flexabed offers that a hospital bed lacks is our optional massage add-ons. Recline in your adjustable bed and enjoy a massage while you unwind. Control the intensity of the massage with your remote control and feel your body loosen up after a long day at work. For split bases, couples have the benefit of personalized relaxation and massage options.

Some GERD News

If you or your partner has Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), a Flexabed Hi-Lo bed could be a good way to get a better night’s sleep. By sleeping with your head and body partially elevated, gravity will help keep your stomach down (literally) and could prevent heartburn. Or, if you regularly have swollen legs or feet, an adjustable base can adjust your position so your legs are slightly elevated.

Flexabed: Luxury Alternatives to a Hospital Bed

An adjustable bed could drastically change the way you sleep. If you’re looking for the best night of sleep possible, a Flexabed just might help you find it. To learn more, call us at (800) 648-1256 or send a message through the contact form on our site with any questions or concerns.

Flexabed, A Hospital Bed Alternative for Your Home

A hospital bed for the home could help you or a loved one get the most regenerative rest possible after an injury or in-patient stay. If you’re adapting to mobility limitations, an adjustable bed might help you enjoy improved health and increased independence.

Provide safety for yourself or a loved one.

Flexabeds are home hospital beds that, unlike traditional beds, are designed to be compatible with other health care devices. Our beds make transferring to a wheelchair, reaching a bedside table, or getting to your mobility aid safer and more secure. Safety features like half-rails or full-rails can also be installed. These features lower the risk of falls and the complications they bring!

How does a hospital bed for the home help?

Not only could a hospital bed provide more safety than a traditional bed, but it also makes it easier to get in and out of bed too. Hospital beds have wheels so the bed can be moved to any area of the home. They also feature locks to make them stationary when they’ve reached their destination.

What are other differences from traditional beds?

Hospital beds for the home are equipped with unique hospital-grade mattresses that reduce the risk of pressure sores and ulcers. Their adjustability makes them more appropriate than a traditional bed, providing comfort and support while giving caregivers more options for delivering quality care.

Maximize your recovery with a hospital bed for home.

Sound sleep improves intellectual function, alertness, and mood. During a complete sleep cycle, your sleeping brain recovers from the stresses of daily life. Proper sleep contributes to feeling more attentive and upbeat while combating medical challenges. Explore our Flexabed accessories in order to make your hospital bed for the home best suit your specific needs.

We live in a time in which essentially everything can be automated, from programmable thermostats to smart lights to everything in between. Every household appliance can be as feature rich as you like. Robotic vacuum cleaners can keep floors tidy on a timer. So why is your bed still stationary and disenchanting? We’ve got 5 reasons why life is better with a remote control bed, and if you don’t have one already, we bet you’ll be shopping for them by the time you’ve finished reading this blog.

1– Comfort

When it comes to sleep, comfort matters. If you constantly toss and turn at night, and struggle to get into a comfortable position, that means you’re also missing out on quality sleep time in the process. When you have a remote control bed that is adjustable, you can tweak the settings to help you achieve the most comfortable positions whenever you need to, with the simple press of a button.

2– Convenience

Remote control beds are also incredibly convenient. Say you want to elevate your tired feet for a while– there’s a button for that! Perhaps you’d like to elevate your head so you can read for a while, or enjoy a movie before bed? You guessed it. There’s a button for that. It’s just so easy.

3– Improved Sleep

Many people with adjustable remote control beds also find that they are able to get better sleep in them than in their old, stationary counterparts. Some may find that they can alleviate snoring, or back pain, or even acid reflux by finding the right positions for sleep in their adjustable beds. Being able to achieve comfortable sleep positions can go a long way when it comes to getting the best rest you possibly can each night when you turn in.

4– Usefulness

When you can easily configure the position and shape of your bed with a remote control, that bed actually becomes a lot more useful to you. You can sit up, you can lie down flat, you can try different combinations of adjustments, and you can do it all so simply. Your bed can double as an ultra-comfortable reading chair, a space to play board games with loved ones, a make-shift movie theater, and so much more.

5– Luxury

Rest is so important, and ultimately we all deserve access to rejuvenating restful sleep. A remote control bed is a luxury we at Flexabed think everyone should have, because what could be more important than healthy sleep? Having a luxurious, custom adjustable bed at home can also transform the way you think about bedtime. Perhaps having the right remote control bed will make it easier to prioritize the caliber of sleep your body needs and deserves to get every night? This may seem like a luxury, but it’s also incredibly necessary.

So, are you convinced yet? If you’re in the market for a new, cozy, custom, comfortable-as-can-be remote control bed, look no further than Flexabed. We manufacture a full line of mattresses, adjustable bed bases, and many accessories ready to be leveraged for your best sleep ever. Why not start now?

Sleep Deprivation Horror Stories– Sleep So Bad It’s SCARY

You tossed and turned all night long. You twisted and writhed under the covers trying your best to get comfortable. You obsessively checked the glowing numbers on the clock, and your mounting dread for the following day threatened to eat you alive. We’ve all got sleep deprivation horror stories, and we all know what happens when we fail to get the sleep we need to function. Defeated, you drag yourself from bed at the rude blaring of your alarm, and you proceed to zombie your way through your daily tasks.

We’ve all been there. The effects of even just one night of minimal, poor quality sleep are glaring. You may feel drowsy during the day, lack energy, experience slowed thinking, and even have an irritable mood that affects your interactions with loved ones or coworkers. Sleep deprivation is no joke, and according to the American Sleep Apnea Association, an estimated 50 to 70 million Americans of all ages and socioeconomic classes are affected by sleep-related problems, such as sleep deprivation.

What is Sleep Deprivation?

Sleep deprivation simply means getting less than the necessary amount of sleep, which for adults, ranges from seven to nine hours per night. That said, when it comes to great restful sleep, it’s not all about quantity. For that reason, the terms sleep deficiency or sleep insufficiency are often used to describe the factors that keep a person from waking up feeling rested and refreshed.

Types of Sleep Deprivation

The sleep deprivation a person experiences can be broken down into different categories based on circumstances, primarily the duration of the person’s lack of sleep.

Acute Sleep Deprivation– Acute sleep deprivation refers to a short period of time, generally a few days or less, during which a person experiences a significant reduction in the amount of sleep achieved.

Chronic Sleep Deprivation– Also known as insufficient sleep syndrome, chronic sleep deprivation is defined as curtailed sleep persisting for three months or more.

Chronic Sleep Deficiency– This can describe ongoing sleep deprivation or insufficient sleep that occurs as a result of sleep fragmentation or other disruptions.

Sleep Deprivation Symptoms

The obvious signs of sleep deprivation include excessive sleepiness during the day, as well as reduced ability to concentrate, slowed thinking, and sometimes even mood changes. The lack of sleep can manifest itself through a variety of symptoms such as:

• Slowed cognitive thinking
• Reduced attention span
• Lack of energy
• Worsened ability to remember things
• Poor or risky decision making
• Feelings of stress, anxiety, or irritability

Symptoms are affected by the extent and duration of a person’s experience with sleep deprivation, and their consequences can be serious.

Chronic sleep deprivation can contribute to various health issues, as healthy sleep plays a vital role in the functioning of essentially all systems within the human body. Studies suggest that sleep deprivation can potentially contribute to issues like:

• Diabetes
• Cardiovascular disease
• Obesity
• Hormonal abnormalities
• Immunodeficiency
• Mental health disorders

Sufficient sleep is necessary for us to feel our best as we move throughout our days, and it’s also an imperative piece of the puzzle when it comes to achieving our greatest personal health. It’s important in terms of quality of life as well. In addition to having far-reaching effects on the person affected, sleep deprivation in general has a profound effect on society at large. For instance, according to the CDC, as many as 6,000 deaths each year are the result of drowsy drivers. Additionally, sleep deprivation has been estimated to contribute to hundreds of billions of dollars in added healthcare costs. Talk about scary!

If you’re experiencing sleep deprivation yourself, talk to your doctor. You may also consider upgrading your sleep set up with the perfect adjustable bed custom-tailored to your specific sleep needs. Find one today through Flexabed!

You wouldn’t try to bake a cake without preheating the oven or jump into an intense workout without a warmup, so why go to bed without taking steps to adequately prepare yourself for restful, productive sleep? If you want to drift off to dreamland and get the most out of those (hopefully) eight blissful hours– try incorporating these ways to wind down before bed into your bedtime rituals.

Establish a Nightly Routine

Did you know that disruptions to your daily routine can affect the quality and duration of your sleep at night? What does getting ready for bed entail for you? Maybe you run through your skincare routine, read a little bit, or go through a guided meditation. Establishing a routine with patterns that help signal to the brain that it’s bedtime, can go a long way. Another great tip is to set a bedtime for yourself, and do your best to stick to it. We are creatures of habit, and our bodies respond well to healthy patterns we set for ourselves.

Really, the importance of a bedtime routine goes all the way back to childhood. Parents can attest that consistent bedtime routines have the power to relieve cranky infants, often helping children to fall asleep faster and wake up less often throughout the night.

Don’t Stare at the Clock

Believe it or not, obsessing about the time is not going to be a productive catalyst for great sleep. It’s best to turn your alarm clock away from you, or turn the brightness way down on your phone when you’re in bed, so you aren’t tempted to watch the time tick by.

Focus on Your Breath

If you’re trying to get to sleep, but you’re feeling anxious or having a hard time relaxing, try some simple breathing exercises. Just a few minutes of slow, intentional breathing can work wonders for calming the mind and body. This is a great technique to employ in all sorts of scenarios, but can also be particularly helpful in winding down for bed. Ready to try it? Check out these simple breathing techniques for sleep.

Take a Warm Bath

Your body begins to produce melatonin in the evening to help prepare you for sleep. This is a part of the body’s hormonal changes that work with your sleep-wake cycle, and as the melatonin production begins, your core body temperature begins to drop. For this reason, sometimes mimicking a nighttime drop in body temp with a warm soak in the tub can trigger the brain’s message that signals it’s time for sleep. Baths are also notoriously relaxing, and an excellent way to unwind before bed.

Prep Your Bedroom

If you want to achieve restful and productive sleep, it helps to set yourself up for success. Prepare your bedroom to be the best possible environment for great sleep by removing clutter that can cause stress, keep it cool and dark, and ensure your bedding is comfortable and supportive.

Having the right setup is an imperative component of getting great sleep. Do you have the best possible bed and mattress combo for you? Great bedding? The right pillows? Check out our customizable adjustable beds by Flexabed if it’s time for an upgrade in that department.

These ways to wind down before bed can help you find a good nighttime rhythm that promotes better sleep on an ongoing basis. Figuring out a routine that works best for you, and tailoring it to your personal needs and preferences can make all the difference. We know once you get into the right bedtime habits, you’ll be so glad you did. Cheers to consistency, great sleep, and sweet dreams– especially in a Flexabed!

Great sleep is important, but it’s hard to achieve that in the wrong bed. Let’s face it, if you’re over the age of 30, you’ve probably dealt with some degree of back pain in your lifetime, and you know how debilitating it can be. Waking up with back pain is the epitome of starting your day on the wrong foot, but what if changing your sleep set up could help to eliminate or at least diminish that back pain? If you’re looking for the best mattress for back pain look no further than Flexabed, they might be able to help.

Finding the Right Mattress

There are a lot of factors to consider when you’re shopping mattresses and adjustable beds. Finding the right mattress for you that addresses your specific sleep needs and preferences, in a lot of ways, comes down to personal choice. That said, if you’re looking for the best mattress for back pain, there are some things to think about when you make your selection. Finding a mattress that is engineered to possibly provide pressure relief and support for your spine is a great place to start.

There are a few things to look for in a mattress if you suffer from back pain, and they are as follows:

• Support: If you deal with back pain regularly, it could be beneficial for you to sleep on a supportive mattress that helps you maintain spinal alignment throughout the night. Correct alignment should support the natural S curve of your spine, keeping pressure off your back. If your mattress doesn’t offer the necessary support, your hips and other body parts could sink too far into the bed, possibly creating misalignment that often results in back pain.
• Firmness: When it comes to mattress firmness, there is no one-size-fits-all option. The firmness of your mattress will depend on how you sleep. But also for those with back pain, that “the firmer, the better” rule may not necessarily apply. A too-firm mattress might not provide the necessary spinal support through contour that other mattress options can.
• Mattress Type: Mattresses that incorporate memory foam can potentially help alleviate back pain by cradling the body, relieving pressure points that can become painful after a night’s sleep. At Flexabed we offer a range of mattress types engineered to accommodate the comfort of all types of sleepers. Learn more about those mattress options in our blog about choosing the right mattress for you. At the end of the day, your comfort is what matters most. If the mattress doesn’t feel comfortable for you, odds are, it’s not the one.

Memory Foam and Latex

The mattress types most commonly recommended for sleepers with back pain are memory foam and latex. Both of these mattress options offer exceptional support and contouring that might help to keep the spine aligned and happy. The memory foam and latex mattresses work with your body’s natural curves to support you for restful sleep. If you are dealing with daily aches and looking for the best mattress for back pain, it might be time to reevaluate your current setup, and see if a Flexabed helps!

Unlike traditional beds, hospital beds provide a greater level of comfort and support with various features that make them more accessible to people with evolving care needs. If you or someone you love is in need of a hospital bed for home care, our luxury adjustable beds at Flexabed offer a unique and ideal solution, specifically our Hi Low SL adjustable bed. Below we will detail a few reasons why our Flexabed Hi Low SL makes a great asset for anyone looking for the best hospital bed for home.

Electric Motor for Easy Adjustments

One important feature for any hospital bed for home is just how adjustable it actually is. Part of the draw of having a hospital bed for home is being able to quickly and easily adjust the bed to suit your needs. The Flexabed Hi Low SL features a whisper-quiet electric motor and a remote control that makes adjusting the bed simple. Getting comfortable has never been easier!

Extreme Lowering Capability for Ease of Access

Another important feature for any hospital bed for home is its lowering capability. Whether the bed is for a senior who may struggle to get in and out of bed easily or someone with an injury or illness that affects mobility, the ability to lower the bed makes it significantly more accessible for the user. The Flexabed Hi Low SL actually goes lower than any other bed we’ve ever manufactured. When paired with a low profile mattress, this bed can lower to an astonishing 16.5” from the ground, making it incredibly accessible for those who struggle with mobility.

You can take your wind down time to new levels when you find the right Flexabed.

Potentially Alleviate Back Pain

Did you know that back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide? According to the American Chiropractic Association, back pain accounts for more than 264 million lost work days in just a year, which equates to two work days for every full time worker in the U.S. But what if having the ability to adjust the position you’re in with the push of a button could alleviate some of that discomfort? Sleeping, and lounging, in a customizable adjustable recliner bed makes it easier to reduce pressure on your back by changing positions. Some even find that slightly elevating their feet helps to reduce lower back strain, allowing the lumbar area to more fully decompress.

Improved Circulation in a Recliner Bed

We all know how uncomfortable it is to have a foot or hand fall asleep. Also, if you regularly experience swelling in the legs and feet, you know that sometimes elevation can be key. When you have a comfortable and adjustable recliner bed, you can more easily adjust your position whenever necessary to improve comfort and encourage better blood flow.

If you’re ready to start shopping for an adjustable recliner bed, check out our full line at Flexabed. Our side-by-side comparison makes it easy to figure out which bed will be ideal for you!
