Tempur publishes Good Sleep Guide

Memory foam mattress maker Tempur has joined forces with director of the Edinburgh Sleep Centre Dr Chris Idzikowski to publish the Good Sleep Guide.

The free leaflet gives advice and information about why sleep is important and what methods there are to ensure a peaceful and comfortable night's rest.

Sleep is essential as the part of the brain that controls emotions, moods, social interactions and decision making needs the time to recover from the strains of the day, the guide claims.

It also looks at common problems some people can experience at night time and gives advice about how to combat these issues, such as visualising techniques to prepare the mind for sleep.

Around one in three people in the UK get an average of five hours rest a night, the guide says.

A Tempur mattress may be beneficial to those who have trouble sleeping, as it uses memory foam technology to relieve pressure and mould to the user's body for extra comfort.
