If you or your partner deal with nightly snoring or sleep apnea, you’re not alone — and you’re not out of options either. At Mattress Point, we’ve seen firsthand how the right bed setup can make a powerful difference in your sleep health. One of the most overlooked solutions? An adjustable bed.
Whether you’ve recently purchased one of our Ultraluxe or Deluxe adjustable beds, or you’re exploring how to upgrade your current sleep situation, this guide will show you how to use your adjustable bed to help ease snoring and alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnea.
✅ Understanding Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Snoring happens when airflow through the mouth and nose is partially blocked during sleep, causing the surrounding tissues to vibrate. It can be harmless — or a sign of a more serious condition like Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
With OSA, the airway becomes fully or partially blocked multiple times a night, leading to broken sleep, loud gasping sounds, and even low oxygen levels. While treatment can include devices like CPAP machines, sleep position and elevation play a huge role — and that’s where your adjustable bed comes in.
🛏️ How Mattress Point Adjustable Beds Can Help
Our customers often tell us the difference they feel after just a few nights of using their adjustable bed properly. Here’s how you can take full advantage of your bed to help manage snoring and sleep apnea:
1. Elevate Your Head to Open the Airways
One of the biggest benefits of an adjustable bed is that it lets you sleep with your head elevated, which can:
Prevent the tongue from falling back and blocking the airway
Reduce throat tissue collapse
Improve airflow through your nasal passages
We recommend starting with a 20–30 degree head incline. You don’t need to be sitting up completely — just enough to take gravity off your airway. Most Mattress Point beds come with easy-to-use remotes or smartphone apps that let you fine-tune the angle until it feels just right.
2. Try the Zero Gravity Position
Our Ultraluxe and Deluxe models feature a “Zero Gravity” preset — a scientifically designed sleep position that slightly raises both your head and legs, mimicking the weightlessness astronauts experience.
This position helps:
Reduce pressure on your lower back and chest
Encourage better breathing alignment
Decrease fluid build-up in the airways
Many of our customers who use CPAP machines find that Zero Gravity makes it easier to keep the mask in place and reduces discomfort throughout the night.
3. Support Side Sleeping with Adjustable Angles
Sleeping on your back often worsens snoring and sleep apnea. An adjustable bed helps you get into a comfortable side-sleeping position — which is one of the best natural ways to reduce symptoms.
Some users even elevate one side slightly to encourage rolling onto their side. With dual-adjustable options available in our split king setups, couples can each find their ideal snore-free setup.
4. Customised Comfort for CPAP Users
If you’re using a CPAP machine, comfort and positioning are everything. Sleeping flat can cause your mask to leak or press uncomfortably into your skin. With an adjustable bed from Mattress Point, you can:
Fine-tune your upper body elevation
Reduce neck strain
Improve CPAP machine effectiveness
Some of our customers even report needing lower pressure settings after switching to an adjustable base — all thanks to better body positioning.
🛠️ Tips for Getting the Best Results
Here are some simple steps to make sure you’re getting the most out of your adjustable base:
Start Small: Begin with a gentle incline and adjust gradually. You may need to test a few positions before finding what works best.
Use the Memory Preset: Save your favourite anti-snore position on your remote for one-touch setup each night.
Add a Contour Pillow: A supportive pillow can align your neck and airway even better when combined with a raised bed position.
Use With a Snoring Partner: If your partner snores, even adjusting their side of a split bed slightly can make a big difference.
⭐ Real Sleep, Real Results
The feedback from Mattress Point customers has been overwhelmingly positive. Many say their snoring improved within the first few nights, and some with mild sleep apnea report sleeping more deeply, waking up less, and feeling better in the morning — all without needing to drastically change their lifestyle.
