Experience the Rem-fit Mattress Collection

A good night’s sleep is something every one of us wants and needs in order to live our best possible life. Unfortunately, in today’s high-pressure society, a good night’s sleep is often an illusive dream rather than a reality.

It’s amazing what a difference a good mattress can make in both making you physically comfortable enough to fall asleep and supporting you enough to stay asleep all night. There’s a new kid on the block in terms of mattresses that provides you with the comfort and support you need in order to enjoy a restful, restorative night’s sleep. Introducing the Rem-fit Mattress Collection.

The philosophy behind Rem-Fit Mattress is that your choice of a mattress should be based on how you sleep. That’s why Rem-Fit Mattress is a collection of three different mattress types. Choose the one that’s right for you:

1. The Rem-Fit 200

Rem-Fit Sleep 200 Mattress, St. Louis Mattress Store, The Back Store

This is a mattress for people who traditionally prefer a firm mattress. It’s an 8 inch thick mattress with 5.5″ devoted to support and the top 2.5″ gel-infused foam devoted to adapting to your body and keeping you cool and comfortable. Prices start at just $499.

2. The Rem-Fit 300

Rem-Fit Sleep 300 Mattress, St. Louis Mattress Store, The Back Store

The “300” is a mattress for people who prefer a medium-support surface — not too soft and not too firm. It’s made with 10 inches of foam — 6.5″ of support foam, 2.5″ of “cradle” foam, and 1.5″ of adaptive foam. The addition of “cradle” foam is designed to keep its shape once it’s conformed to your body. The top gel-infused layer will also adapt to the contours of your body while keeping you cool and comfortable too. Priced from $599.

3. The Rem-Fit 400

Rem-Fit Sleep 400 Mattress, St. Louis Mattress Store, The Back Store

This is a mattress for folks who traditional prefer a soft or plush mattress. It features a full 12 inches of foam, with 7.5″ devoted to supporting your body, 2.5″ of “response” foam designed to rapidly adapt and contour to your body no matter how much you tend to move around at night. The final 2″ of gel-infused adaptive foam contours to your body and keeps you cool and comfortable while you sleep. Well worth the money starting at $749.

All Rem-Fit Mattresses are covered in Rem-Fits’ exclusive Re-Ax Unleashed™ fiber, made of natural fibers designed to be both soft and cooling, and the ultimate in sleep comfort.

The Back Store has five convenient locations in St. Louis and is the exclusive area dealer of Rem-Fit Mattresses. Visit our website for store locations and hours, and make it a point to come in and experience the difference a Rem-Fit mattress can make!

The Pillow That is Actually a Sleep Aid

ZEEQ

According to the National Institutes of Health, adults need seven to eight hours of sleep a night. Thirty percent of adults get less than six hours per night, per the National Health Interview Survey. An innovative pillow being developed by engineers on Kickstarter may just be the answer some people need to ending their sleep troubles.

Zeeq is a smart pillow developed by Warrick Bell and Miguel Morello. It has eight Bluetooth speakers built into it so that you can rest and listen to music as you drift off to sleep. Because of the way it is designed, it will not disturb your partner sleeping next to you. Through the Zeeq companion smartphone app, you can set your preferred music player or use the Zeeq music in the app.

Not only does Zeeq help you fall asleep, but it also tracks your sleep patterns and reacts to snoring. The companion smartphone app for Zeeq tracks your movement during sleep to let you know how restful your sleep appeared to be and how many times you moved throughout the night. It tracks deep sleep as well. When it comes to snoring, the microphone in Zeeq detects snoring and the pillow vibrates to alert you to change positions. There is even an alarm that will vibrate at a designated time to gently wake you.

Zeeq has a rechargeable battery that lasts about a week. It is made of Tencel fabric which makes it comfortable and durable. It has a removable pillowcase and a waterproof allergy barrier pillowcase has just been developed for it. It has a been fully funded on Kickstarter and will ship, to those who invested or made pre-orders, in March 2017. Pre-orders are being accepted at Indegogo.com.

Sleeping Myths Busted

Truth For A Good Night’s Rest

The Back Store, Is Napping Beneficial

Generations have believed if you drink a glass of warm milk at bedtime you will sleep like a baby and if you were not able to get enough sleep during the week you can always make up for it on the weekend.

We don’t want to disrespect Great Grandmother Pearl but we do want to help you get the best sleep possible. So let’s take a look at a few myths that may be causing you to lose sleep.

Our first myth to debunk is the thought that naps are for the lazy or are a waste of time. While napping after 3 in the afternoon or for longer than a short power nap can interfere with your nighttime rest, naps are actually very healthy. A 10-30 minute nap can rejuvenate the mind and energize your creativity. Your body can also learn to fall asleep faster in the evenings by taking naps in the early afternoon.

Next up- everybody should get 8 hours of sleep every night for optimal health. Studies now show that some folks don’t require a full 8 hours while others need a tad more. What does your body tell you about your sleep requirement? Listen when your body speaks.

Those of you who work a 60 hour week Monday through Friday must look forward to catching up on lost sleep when your weekend arrives. Sadly, this is a myth to be debunked. Once you’ve missed sleep, that sleep is gone and cannot be retrieved. In fact, your body prefers a schedule and operates at capacity if you get up and go to sleep at the same time 7 days a week. But, don’t forget your naps!

At The Back Store, we care about your quality of sleep which leads to your quality of living. We choose to see Sleeping Myths Busted so you won’t be fooled by misconceptions that affect daily life.

Come by and see us, let us help you sleep well!

Don’t Sleep On Your Issues

Are You Sleeping on the Best Mattress for Your Sleep Issues?

Can one mattress be the best mattress for everyone? Probably not. But can one company offer everyone the best mattress for their needs? Absolutely.

Sealy, Blue, Level2, Plush, EuroTop

Sleep has long been more important than most people realize. So many of us like to brag about the few hours of sleep we can survive on, but are we being honest with ourselves? Modern medical science has proven time and again that sleep contributes to every aspect of health and wellness. You may think your problem is that you can’t sleep, when really, your lack of sleep is the cause of your stress, irritability, problems concentrating and much more. These are things that can threaten goals, relationships and life

Do you suffer from any of the following?

  • Sleeping too much or too little?
  • Waking up in pain?
  • Tossing and turning?
  • Bed too hot or too cold?

You don’t have to know why these problems exist. You don’t have to know what mattress is right for you. Simply visit The Back Store knowing your concerns and what specifics may be contributing to those, and let us find the best mattress for sleep issues, your needs and budget.

Friends, family and unending media have surely filled your mind with lots of options for optimum sleep and comfort. Let the professionals help you wade through that information and land on a solution that promises long nights and better days.

We spend a third of our lives in bed, which makes the right mattress as important as our home and more important than our next car or vacation.

Enjoy A Therapeutic Osaki Chair Massage

Experience from The Comfort of Your Own Home

The Back Store Stl mo

Do you ever find yourself at the mall with your feet dragging from a laborious shopping expedition that’s gone on far longer than you initially planned? Then, like a mirage in the desert featuring cold springs and waving palm trees you see the row of massage chairs laid out offering three minute massages for a dollar. What a bargain!

You sit down and enjoy a pampering experience of getting everything on your aching body soothed from the very tips of your toes to the top of your head. The problem is that this experience only lasts three minutes, and then you’re left once again to battle the masses of humanity at the nearest 50% off sale. Once you have decided to leave, you get to take your life into your hands by traversing a crowded mall parking lot where pedestrians are viewed as targets and close parking spots as gold.

But, what if you could get that relaxing massage chair experience from the comfort of your own home? Picture the same experience from one of those mall chairs, but only better because you get to stay home and watch The Price is Right while you do it instead of assuming the role of Mall Warrior. And why restrict yourself to three minutes? If you have a state-of-the-art massage chair from Osaki, you can get pampered all the way through the Showcase Showdown.

Warning: An overwhelming feeling of comfort and pleasure may induce more frequent and quite extended periods of extreme napping.

Come and experience for yourself the therapeutic massage collection at “The Back Store” in one of our fine five retail locations in the St. Louis, MO area. All of our retail establishments offer these luxurious furniture items that will allow you to experience a daily relaxation routine that literally massages the stress away.
