The best mornings are the ones where you wake up fresh and fully rested. You are well set for a new day and enjoy the morning with your family.

At Coluna, we know the miracle cure – sleep. But it is not just about sleep, but about sleep of the best quality. The sleep that causes a perfect balance between body and mind and gives you the feeling of being strong and well-rested – ready to face the everyday challenges. The sleep that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

At Coluna, we are convinced that quality of your sleep is fundamental for a happy and well-balanced life. So why not listen to your body and give yourself the gift of getting the best possible night’s sleep?

You deserve it!

Sleep is the most important gift you can give yourself. A good night’s sleep keeps you healthy and well – and gives your body the natural rest it needs. However, good sleep is not a given. Maybe you know the feeling of waking up feeling tired and unwell? Lack of sleep has a bad influence on your mood and concentration.

The best start to the day is to wake up fully rested with the feeling of having slept absolutely amazingly. But your experience may be different with mornings where you feel unwell and tired?

Sleep gives you that extra energy you need in your everyday life, whether it is

at the breakfast table, at work or at the shopping trip. Thus, the good sleep is key to a healthier life.

The way you sleep andwhat you sleep on is incredibly important for your body and your health. When you get a good night’s sleep, without disturbances, you give your body the opportunity to recover after the challenges of a busy day.

Therefore, it is very important that you sleep long enough and that you allow yourself to lie on something good allowing you to relax completely. That way, you give yourself the best possible conditions for recharging your batteries during the night.

For 20 years our passion for the good night’s sleep has motivated us to create bedding products which provide a surprisingly good sleep at affordable prices.

At Coluna, we are constantly looking for new knowledge, new materials and new production methods that can be used to give you an even better sleep.

In “Coluna’s little guide to a better sleep”, we share some of the knowledge we have gained over the years about the good sleep.

General tips and ideas for a better sleep:

• Think about lights Always sleep in a dark room…
• Sounds. Silence makes it easier for most people to sleep…
• Temperature. Most people sleep better in a chilled bedroom…
• Cleanliness. A clean and tidy bedroom makes for a better sleep…
• Consumption of food and drinks. Avoid eating a lot close to bedtime – and avoid fatty, sweet and refreshing foods and drinks…
• Entertainment. Avoid screens and SoMe-activities close to bedtime Exercise… Avoid hard exercise shortly before going to bed… Exercise moderately up until supper to build a healthy fatigue Stress… Try to park or resolve stressful situations and/or relationships to sleep better…

Mattress and pillow:

A good pillow and mattress are the two things that have the most influence on the rest you need for your body to function and stay healthy.

We sleep for a good many reasons:

• Store in our brain the important knowledge we gain during the day – and remove the unimportant knowledge
• Recover and rebuild tissues / muscles and immune system of the body
• Remove waste products from brain and muscles
• Regulate appetite
• Protect the heart
• Strengthen childrens’ and young peoples’ growth

Common to most rebuilding processes is that the effect increases the more freely the blood flows in the body. In this way, as much oxygen and as many nutrients as possible are transported out into the body – and at the same time as much waste as possible is transported back to the liver and kidneys where they are broken down and ultimately removed from the body.

The starting point for the development of Coluna products was exactly the need to get a healthy energy-boosting sleep. Therefore, among all materials, we have chosen to use memory foam in our products.

The amazing ability to neutralize pressure makes memory foam the consumer’s preferred material in mattresses and pillows.

Pressure equalization is key in relation to sleeping comfort and healthy sleep. The better the pressure equalization, the lower the pressure on the hips, shoulders and neck from the mattress and the pillow. This offers your body the peace it needs to relax and sleep – and allows for maximized blood circulation for maximum repair and recharging of the body.

But memory foam is not just memory foam. As you may have seen, there are both very cheap and very expensive memory foam mattresses and pillows.

Cheap memory foam products are characterized by containing cheap foam that is poor at minimizing the pressure on your body and head. Thus, cheap foam products will not feel that comfortable because they will either put too much pressure on your body or it will be so soft that you will sink straight through them.

Whether too hard or too soft the comfort will be bad and as the equalization of the pressure on your body will be poor the quality of your sleep will be poor and you will wake up feeling low on energy.

For 20 years now we at Coluna, have developed bed products in collaboration with leading manufacturers of memory foam as well as physiotherapists and chiropractors. We have performed numerous consumer tests to always be at the forefront with products that meet your need for a good night’s sleep.

This means that not only do we use the latest generation memory foam in our products but we also use a very high quality foam.

With a bedding product from Coluna, you get a product with the highest quality memory foam and which contains all the knowledge we have about good sleep.

Memory foam was developed for NASA back in the mid 60’s to meet the need of pilots and astronauts to sit as comfortably as possible in their seats. Pilots and astronauts are exposed to huge pressure at times. Because of that they need a seat that neutralizes this pressure as much as possible.

Knowledge about sleep is constantly evolving and we are constantly becoming wiser. This is why we are committed to keep evolving “Coluna’s little guide to better sleep”.

We want our guide to always be able to inspire you and give you the latest knowledge on what you can do to get a good and healthy a night’s sleep.
