New Innovations: The Visco Elastic Foam Mattress
It may sound intimidating, the visco elastic foam mattress, but it is quite the discovery making restless nights a thing of the past. The visco elastic foam mattress can be attributed to the fine research done by NASA. If not for them, there will be no such thing as a visco elastic foam mattress. It was invented during the sixties when NASA engineers were in search of a way to protect the astronauts from gravitational forces building up as they navigated space. The material for the visco elastic foam mattress began as something used to counteract space's G-force.
With the material showing a huge amount of success, they now merged into more conventional applications such as that of bedding cushions for hospital patients. The visco elastic foam mattress was particularly used in the hospital burn units. These provided much comfort to the patients and so the material was once again introduced via other purposes. These can now be seen in automobile seating and pillows. As more consumers are introduced to the wonders of this material more commonly known as memory foam, the demand for visco elastic foam mattress products for homes have constantly been increasing.
A visco elastic foam mattress is different from the traditional foam with regard to the lack of bounce in the regular foam mattresses. On the other hand, the beauty of a visco elastic foam mattress lies in its ability to be reshaped as a person places contact on the mattress. The visco elastic foam mattress changes its shape to match the contour of the body of the person lying down. With a visco elastic foam mattress you are not restricted to a flat surface therefore eliminating painful pressure points by providing a balanced distribution of support across the body. Lying on a mattress like this causes the heat and weight of the person to be responsible for the reforming of the foam.
The ability of a visco elastic foam mattress to conform to a body's shape eliminates problems encountered in sleep such as joint and bone pressure as well as night sweats. This is not only attributed to the conforming capacity but also the ability of the mattress to release warm internal air via cooling channels. With this type of mattress, the accumulation of heat is controlled for a better sleep quality. Also, with a mattress made out of memory foam, you will encounter less time switching positions and more time sleeping. Any sleeping position will be comfortable with this kind of mattress. Considering that you have a partner, no matter how much you move, he or she would not be awakened that easily as memory foam reduces motion disturbances.
Other than the visco elastic foam mattress, you can also try making use of a memory foam pillow to support your head and neck even further. As the mattress, the pillow will provide additional support targeting the proper alignment of the spine from the neck down. Check your area for suppliers and begin better sleep.

what's the best mattress on the market ?????
Shopping around for a new queen or full size mattress.
Coil, Sleep number or visco latex (temperpedic)
Coil is the worst for putting pressure points on the body
air beds could break down and I heard that after a while
temperpedic can break down too. visco-latex costs
about $3,000.
Does anyone have a visco-latex bed the one developed
by NASA and is it really worth the money????? THX
I got my memory foam beds at Ortho. They are actually more durable than Tempurpedic, and have a 20yr warranty, vs. a 10yr for Tempurpedic. They were 1/3 the price, too!
I love my bed and have never slept better, even on a top-quality Stearns and Foster mattress, so I ran out and got one for the guest room, too. Friends who stay over are amazed at how comfortable the bed is.
So, I do recommend it (obviously). Sweet dreams!
