Whenever we sleep, especially after a very tiring day, we would really want that relaxing feeling of comfort. Did you know that natural latex mattresses could give you that feeling? Not only would you enjoy comfort and relaxation, but natural latex mattresses also gives our bodies the proper support it needs throughout the entire length of our sleep. When you wake up in the morning no matter how long the duration of our sleep is, if the kind of sleep you have is not quality sleep, you wouldn't feel so much energized. Natural latex mattress is the type of mattress that could provide us with our much needed quality sleep.
But how is natural latex really made or produced and from which source does naturally made latex come from? For those who do not have that much of an idea about natural latex, the material used to make it comes from rubber trees, "Hevea Brasiliensis" to be exact. This is the type of rubber tree wherein the raw form and the main ingredient of latex is extracted from. This raw form is the saps that come from this rubber tree. The saps are then carefully collected and processed to be made into natural latex.
Organic Latex Mattress
Dunlop Method and Talalay Method
The two ways into which naturally made latex mattresses are produced are the Dunlop and the Talalay method. Both of these methods uses the principle of making holes or what is known as the core of the mattress, which is responsible for giving the mattresses their softness and firmness. The only difference between the two methods is that the Dunlop method is the more traditional method in making the latex mattresses. The Talalay method is more modernized and provides different variations into which manufacturers could efficiently control the formation of the cores in the mattresses.
The standard property of latex mattresses are as follows: 6x6 inches thickness of the core and a 4lbs / cubic foot of density. There are also many advantages of natural latex mattresses. For health conscious people this is good news to you. Studies have shown that natural latex mattresses are gentle on those certain pressure points in the human body. For people with sensitive, I tell you that you will love the anti-microbial and hypo-allergenic property of natural latex mattresses. And for those people who have very sensitive nose, or may be suffering from allergic rhinitis and the like, you need not worry because the natural odor of latex mattresses are eliminated during the manufacturing process.
Simply Being Natural
But aside from all of those benefits mentioned, the best thing about natural latex mattresses is it is "NATURAL". Other synthetic mattresses as time passes may emit certain chemical odors that may prove harmful for our health and wellness. An average person sleeps about 8 hours every night. So if that is the case, if you opt to choose synthetic latex, you would inhale the fumes from the chemicals it produces for 8 hours each night that you would sleeping on that mattress.
Just imagine what different health problems you may harbor. Altered sexual development, immuno-suppression, reduction in IQ and brain development, and even cancer are some of the potential health problems it could bring. Natural latex mattresses also does Mother Nature a big favor just by being natural itself.
Certain Drawbacks to Consider
The only drawback about naturally made latex mattresses is that it is harder to find in the market compared to synthetic ones. But thanks to modern day shopping and availability in the internet, finding one would be a lot easier. Also natural latex mattresses are a little more expensive than synthetic. But the extra cost wouldn't be that much of a difference when you could have better quality of health in exchange.
So if ever you have already decided to purchase your very own natural latex mattress, you could also improve your being environmental-friendly and health conscious attitude by using additional natural materials to pair up and match your naturally made latex mattress. Pillows made of organic cotton are the suggestions of top of the list. Toppers and blankets made of organic and natural materials are also a very good choice.
Using naturally made latex mattresses can never get you wrong (health wise and environmental wise) just by choosing what is natural.
