How we sleep has an immense impact on our overall health, so why settle for anything below par? Adjustable beds, not only make it easier to get in and out of bed, but allow the user to adjust the sleep position, which has huge benefits.

This is especially true for those who suffer from conditions like poor circulation, back problems (including sciatica), arthritis, or difficulties with breathing, according to Samantha Shann, Occupational Therapist at Oak Tree Mobility.

"That's because sleeping in an elevated position can help keep your blood flowing, open airways, and reduce swelling, which helps ease joint pain," she says.
