Pressure Relief for Deeper Sleep

The Savvy Rest natural latex mattress relieves pressure normally caused from sleeping on a mattress that is too firm. This improves circulation at night and reduces tossing and turning.  Each time you turn, you move from a deeper stage of sleep into a lighter sleep. The Savvy Rest mattress allows you to remain longer in deep Stage 3 and Stage 4 sleep. You won’t wake up stiff or sore on a Savvy Rest mattress.

Spine Stays in Alignment

Our natural, latex mattress is supportive enough that your spine will remain in alignment as you sleep, so you won’t wake up with a backache.

Hypo-allergenic. Chemical free.

You will breathe better because you will sleep on an all natural product. Most mattresses use toxic chemicals, and you breathe chemicals during the night. The Savvy Rest is an organic mattress and is chemical free, so you won’t wake up with a “chemically caused” headache.

  What’s in our mattress?

Latex at the Core

Latex is anti-microbial and anti-bacterial, and dust mites cannot live in it. It will hold up for 10—20 years. After all, it’s rubber. Therefore, the best organic mattress needs to start with natural latex rubber as the core.

Cotton fiber is a poor mattress ingredient as cotton collects moisture, compresses, and attracts dust mites.

The Casing?

You can think of the casing as a 6-sided fabric box that you put your latex into. Amish craftsmen and craftswomen hand sew every one of our casings. 

The casing is made using certified organic wool fiber quilted to certified organic cotton fabric. 

The bottom of the casing (or fabric box) is organic cotton fabric.The four sides of the casing are made of quilting. The quilting is made by a quilter who sews certified organic wool fiber between two layers of organic cotton fabric.

We use bias tape around the edges so it has a finished look, and we zipper the quilted top to the bottom 5 sides of the casing. The top of the “box” zips off.

Once you insert your chosen layers of latex and zip the cover back on, you have a mattress that is comfortable, beautiful, durable, organic, and hygienic.

 

 

Organic Wool & Cotton

We use a thin layer of organic wool fiber quilted to organic cotton fabric.  Wool is a natural insulator in the winter and wicks moisture in the summer; but if you use too much, it takes a body impression. We use 3/4”—thick enough to do its job, but thin enough not to take a body impression. 

Cotton clothing feels great next to you skin, and cotton fabric is good on top of a mattress. However, cotton fiber is a poor ingredient in a mattress because it attracts moisture, compresses, and dust mites love it. Conventionally grown cotton is what is used in inexpensive futons, and even organic cotton fiber will not perform well in a mattress.  That’s why we use organic wool fiber quilted to organic cotton fabric.

Why 100% Natural?

Consider that most mattresses and pillows contain a variety of toxic chemicals that you would never consider sleeping with—PBDEs, fire retardants, and formaldehyde. Just because you can’t smell them doesn’t mean you aren’t breathing them all night.

Would you take a can of turpentine or a jug of anti-freeze to bed with you? How is sleeping on a chemical bed any different?

You never thought about it before?

We understand.  We never thought about it before either.  Fifty years ago nobody considered that cigarettes were carcinogenic and contributed to heart disease. What to do with this information is up to you.  At least now you can choose a mattress that is comfortable and safe (natural and not offgassing).
