The zero gravity position is a term and position developed by NASA as a position for
astronauts to help relieve stress of earth's gravity on the body while taking off into space. The zero
gravity position is achieved by lying on your back, then raising your legs and head above your
stomach/heart. This position minimizes the effect of gravity on your back, evenly distributes weight on
your body and puts your body in a relaxed state.
Yes, of course! You can sleep on your back or side during the night with both your head and leg sections adjusted. Here, Electric Hospital Bed for home use eases your body to suit your comfortable position.
You can use any mattress on ZERO-G BEDS; however we recommend and provide a latex
mattress, which is made of eco-friendly natural rubber, suitable for all body types and flexes easily as
the bed adjusts its position. If you use coir or bonded or spring mattresses, they need to be cut into
four sections and stitched together.
No, since the zero gravity position is a healthy way to sleep for all, the ZERO-G
BEDS is recommended even for people who are otherwise fit. As this position reduces pressure on the back
and improves circulation, it is the most recommended sleep position.
You can use the normal 3 AMP plug. Electricity consumption is negligible as you will
use it only when you actually adjust the bed to your preferred sleep position.
In fact, sleeping on your side and slightly raising the level of your feet may also
greatly enhance your sleep and regulate blood flow. Since we are generally up on our feet all day long,
this position may offer extreme comfort.
