Sleep Relaxed. Get the most out of life. |
|
Why sleep 8 hours when 7 hours 40 minutes is sufficient? People today are increasingly concerned with their quality of living. That quality is closely linked to
quality sleep. A more relaxed, intense sleep enables us to get more out of life - making our day both longer
and more intense.
Intense works on a simple physical principle. In the
course of the day, the human body accumulates static electricity.
Reducing this static charge automatically leads to a more restful,
refreshing sleep. In other words, lower the static charge and sleep
quality goes up.
This phenomenon has been demonstrated by a number of scientific tests. In one
experiment, subjects who had slept on an Intense mattress were not only
better rested, but needed less sleep - 20 to 21 minutes less! Can you
imagine staying on form an extra 20 minutes a day? |

| The human body is constantly under tension |
The human body is one big electric field, continually recharging its
electrons through contacting or rubbing against other materials.
Discharge comes into play when one element moves away from the other.
The discharge is usually earthed straight away, but can also occur
through ionisation - discharge through the air.
Just think of the crackling and sparks that appear when you slip off your
sweater in the dark. This phenomenon is called the corona. The
more electrons there are, the bigger the charge, and the human body can
store up to 30,000 volts! Not surprisingly, this high voltage |
|
has a negative effect on our sleep. We feel nervous, agitated - we are literally experiencing a feeling of tension. So it is important for the body to get rid of this tension and drop to the lowest possible voltage. And that is exactly how Intense works.
|
| The tension literally flows out of you |
In the course of the night, the body is in constant contact with various
materials, such as pyjamas, sheets, mattress etc. Both the body and
these materials are continually recharged with static electricity. If we want a truly peaceful sleep, it is clear that
this tension needs to be discharged and the voltage lowered - without
earthing.
Intense offers a solution to this problem. The Intense mattress uses ultra-fine,
|
|
multifilament carbon fibre thread. Each filament contains a conductive
trilobal core, wrapped in a protective nylon envelope. The carbon
filament captures the electrons in the surrounding material and releases
them into the air at low voltage (from 4,000 volts). So the tension
literally flows from the body, allowing for deeper and more relaxing sleep. |
| Science confirms the Intense experience |
One of the world's leading specialists in sleep research, Professor Chris Idzikowsky, took a very close look at
how Intense works. He put 26 people through a series of tests, both subjective and objective. The results were remarkable. On an active
mattress the sleep becomes more efficient by 4.3% from the second night. For a normal night's sleep, the subjects needed 21 minutes less
on average or put another way, one night per month! |
|
What's more, those who tried the test considered Intense to be particularly
comfortable. Intense can easily be used in woven or knitted ticking. It actively repels dust (good news for asthmatics), is perfectly washable
and has a long active life. The filament structure can be neither seen nor felt. The benefits of Intense are spectacular: better quality
sleep and a gain in time of more than 20 minutes per day! |
