Visco memory Foam - somtimes called Visco-Elastic Memory Foam - was actually created by NASA to reduce pressure points in the cushions of airplanes and space vehicles. The design was made available to the public in the early 1980's.

Visco memory foam mattresses and toppers are widely used in hospitals for people who are suffering from chronic back pain. The foam helps to relieve the pressure on the body and it will adjust to your weight and temperature. Visco foam mattress is also excellent for asthma sufferers. A visco memory foam mattress is unlikely to harbor dust mites which are commonly found in conventional spring mattresses. Dust mites are a result of dead skin cells and humid conditions. They can aggravate allergies, skin rashes and asthma. Visco memory foam does not provide the right kind of environment to encourage dust mites. We all move in our sleep and if you are unlucky enough to have a lumpy or uncomfortable mattress you might be tossing and turning up to sixty times a night. With a visco memory foam mattress, you will not need to move about much because your body will be cradled and comfortable. This will give your partner, as well as yourself, a much better night's sleep.
