| Memory foam mattresses with Visco elastic properties were first introduced in the early 90's by a Swiss based company. For over 20+ years, advertisements on TV and print have been seen across the world touting the capabilities of this technology and how it can provide a more restful night's sleep over a standard mattress and box spring. This special foam allows the contours of the body to be matched within the mattress offering the person more support during sleep. With every move and angle, the foam provides a perfect fit to ensure maximum comfort. |

However, the Swiss did not actually invent the technology that they made so famous throughout the last 20 years. The science behind this remarkable product was actually created in the early 70's by a NASA funded project to help astronauts during lift-off.
The principles of pressure and conformity to the body during sleep were similar to what the astronauts had to deal with. Of course, sleeping and spaceflight are two different things, but the concept of relieving pressure on the body was accomplished using this new material. This special memory foam allows the contours of the body to be matched within the mattress and offers more support during sleep. With every move and angle, the foam provides a perfect fit to ensure maximum comfort. When the person moves positions, the memory foam adjusts accordingly.
