Local, family-owned Mattress 1st by Interiors Home, with locations in Camp Hill and Lancaster, helps their guests find the perfect mattress to address their unique sleep needs. Their no-pressure approach includes spending time with a certified mattress specialist extensively trained in matching sleep issues with appropriate mattress sets and taking part in a Support Report Body Mapping System.

 

While the person lies on a specialized mattress, the Support Report generates a high-resolution image and provides a ComfortMap highlighting pressure points throughout the body.

 

“The system calculates the body’s pressure points and identifies the best level of comfort and support for each person’s body type and preferred sleeping positions,” explains Lois Schultz, manager of the Mattress 1st location in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. “And it only takes a few minutes.”

 

The ComfortMap, coupled with a comprehensive discussion of individual sleeping preferences, physical difficulties, past sleeping experiences and future needs, allows the specialist to narrow the broad selection of mattresses to a few select choices.

 

This fall, Mattress 1st adds Natural Dreams, a 100 percent natural, eco-friendly, non-toxic and hypoallergenic and petroleum-free mattress to its catalog. Natural Dreams uses an organic cotton cover and Global Organic Textile Standards-certified organic New Zealand wool.

 

The line’s breathability prevents body heat from building up throughout the night, while the highly elastic Talalay latex conforms to the body’s shape and size. “The Natural Dreams line provides an ultimate sleeping surface, lessening the tossing and turning that allows for a deeper, undisturbed quality of sleep," says Schultz. “It’s one of the most breathable mattresses available.”

 

Other brands available for purchase include Serta, BeautyRest, Aireloom, Tempur-Pedic, Mattress 1st and Scott Living by Restonic. Construction ranges from memory foam and hybrids to latex and handmade models. Adding an adjustable base to the mattress allows sleepers to raise their heads and feet to different levels for additional pressure relief and comfort.

 

Schultz encourages in-person visits to the store to experience firsthand the diverse selection of mattresses and superior service. "We want our guests to eliminate the mistakes and disappointment caused by online shopping or high-pressure stores," reflects Schultz.

 

Certified mattress specialists are available, and though no appointment is necessary, those with physical limitations or that prefer a more private shopping session may call ahead to schedule a meeting with a mattress specialist.

 

“Health and wellness are two of the most important needs on the planet, and sleep is essential for both,” notes Schultz. “We are here to help guests improve the quality of their sleep and thus improve the quality of their lives.”
