A Good Night's Sleep
A good night's sleep has positive health effects on almost every part of your body. Sleep profoundly affects your physical energy and mental alertness which have a big impact on your daily life. Without a good night's sleep, your next day's performance at work or school will suffer, and you're much more likely to experience physical conditions like vertigo. Adjustable beds with various sleep positions make it easier to get into a comfortable position for a good night's sleep. If you suffer from vertigo, elevating the head of the bed instead of sleeping in a flat position will reduce symptoms of dizziness and nausea.
