| No matter how much we wash and
shower, we all shed skin constantly. These particles sink
into a regular mattress and become impossible to remove,
providing the perfect feeding ground for countless dust
mites. An average bed can hold up to 2 million dust mites
- a microscopic relative of the spider that feeds on dead
skin and general household debris. Although this is not
always a problem, for allergy sufferers it can mean waking
up every day with a blocked nose, stinging eyes, or even
a more serious respiratory problem. The distressing symptoms
of allergies, asthma and eczema are aggravated by a substance
in the droppings of the house dust mite, and reducing the
numbers of these mites can make a considerable difference
to their symptoms.
A waterbed has no fabric for the dust-mites
to live in and the surface is easily wiped every now and
then to keep it as clean as you like. When used in conjunction
with anti-allergy bedding a waterbed can provide substantial
relief for allergy and asthma sufferers. Without the normal
allergic reactions to your bedding, your quality of sleep
will improve drastically, allowing your body to stop fighting
its environment and concentrate on sleep.
