Get More Sleep With A New bed

42 Minutes More Sleep

Research by leading sleep expert Dr Chris Idzikowski, which measured the amount and quality of sleep people were getting on a new bed compared to their old one, found that, when replacing an uncomfortable bed, a new bed was associated with an increase of 42 minutes sleep.

The New Bed Old Bed Study by Dr Chris Idzikowski was commissioned by The Sleep Council 1998.

Dr Idzikowski commented that “research on Over The Counter (OTC) sleep aids has never shown a better improvement than 5-10 minutes extra sleep.

Better Quality Sleep From A New Bed

A French clinical study to compare sleep on a new bed versus an old bed showed that both young and old experience not necessarily more sleep but better quality – that is, less disturbed and more recuperative sleep

With three times fewer physical movements
Two times fewer micro-awakenings being recorded.
