1. Why isn’t changing your bed always the right solution?
Changing your bed may seem logical, but it often involves:
- a significant investment
- logistical constraints
- an adaptation period
- a solution hard to adjust daily
However, the main issue with nighttime reflux is not the bed itself, but the posture.
2. What really matters for reflux during sleep
To reduce nighttime discomfort, it’s essential to have:
- a slight elevation of the upper body
- uniform support of the torso
- a posture maintained all night
- a comfortable and natural position
Without these elements, even a very good mattress isn’t enough.
3. Why don’t improvised solutions last over time?
Many people attempt to:
- sleep on pillows
- place objects under the mattress
- change their position every night
These solutions are often:
- unstable
- uncomfortable
- inconsistent from night to night
- difficult to maintain during sleep
Consistency is crucial.
4. How to create an adapted position without changing your bed?
An effective solution is to:
- slightly incline the upper body
- support the torso as a whole
- maintain natural alignment
- avoid pressure on the neck
The goal is to let gravity work without forcing the body.
5. Why is mattress inclination more effective than head inclination?
Inclining only the head:
- bends the neck
- does not support the back
- creates tension
- is not effective on reflux
Inclining the mattress at the torso level allows for a more coherent and comfortable posture.
6. Is this solution suitable for daily use?
Yes, provided the posture is:
- easy to adjust
- comfortable all night
- stable despite movements
- compatible with deep sleep
The position should become natural, not restrictive.
7. How does CosyLift allow creating this position without changing your bed?
CosyLift is placed under the mattress and allows you to slightly raise the top of the bed, which:
- creates a position suitable for reflux
- supports the torso uniformly
- avoids improvised solutions
- fits the existing bed
- allows easy return to flat
It’s a simple way to optimize the sleeping position without changing your equipment.
