Not only does a wool mattress cover improve your sleep quality, but it also can improve your health. In addition to the wool adding cushion to your sleep surface, it also adds anti-microbial and anti-allergen properties to your bedding that improve your sleep and health.
You may not think about the quality of your mattress, but that would indicate you sleep well regardless. You may be surprised to learn, however, that even if you are waking up pain free, your mattress may be having a significant impact upon how you feel during the day. By adding one of the wool mattress pads to your bed, you may find that you have more energy during the day and you just feel better. I bought one for my new latex mattress and love the combination.
Wool mattress pads are widely used in five-star hotels around the world, and in hospitals or care centers for bed-ridden patients. The next time you get an especially good night’s sleep at a quality hotel, look and see what type of mattress pad the hotel is using. And pay attention to what your friend or family member is sleeping on if they are confined to their bed for any length of time. In most cases, you will find the mattress pad is composed of wool, which has a great number of benefits that you would not expect from a mattress pad.
