The Total Body Incline® tilts the entire body so that the sleeper’s head is higher than his/her heart and the heart is above the feet. This is a well known position used in medicine called the Reverse Trendelenburg Position, and it is actually prescribed for many medical conditions. Dr. Scott explains that a person’s digestive, cardiac and respiratory systems, as well the sinus and lymph drainage systems, all work better when a person is vertical than when he or she is horizontal. So adding a little tilt actually benefits many body functions. Most sleep systems which provide an incline do so by bending at the waist. Beds of this type only allow the consumer to sleep on their back. But the Total Body Incline® allows you to sleep in any sleeping position you desire.

In addition to the incline, the Mindology® Sound Sleep System mattress features the Upper Body Recess®. Dr. Scott claims that this recess provides room for body parts to rest more comfortably, as well as a space into which the sleeper’s chest can expand, which makes breathing easier. In all positions, whether the consumer sleeps on his/her stomach, side or back, the sleeper’s chest, neck, head and spine simulate a much more anatomically correct position. Snoring and sleep apnea are most often caused by obstructed airway passages. The Sound Sleep System allows the consumer to sleep in positions which decrease the distortion of their airway passages, providing less opportunity for snoring and sleep apnea conditions.

When asked why the patent-pending Sound Sleep System® works, Dr. Mindy Scott informed BEDROOM Magazine that, “The body inherently knows what’s good for it. Over millions of years, the evolution of our bodies has been greatly influenced by the forces and effects of gravity. As we evolved into upright creatures, all the systems of our body adapted to these forces. Many of these systems (including digestion, respiration, circulation, and lymphatic drainage) function more effectively when we are vertical rather than horizontal. Adding even a slight full body (not from the waist) tilt when we sleep takes advantage of the beneficial effects of gravity.”

The Mindology® Sound Sleep System addresses the consumer’s need for a truly comfortable sleeping experience for both the snorer and anyone else sharing the bed. This scientifically advanced design also provides unsurpassed structural comfort and support even for those without sleep problems, thereby making it possible for anyone to share a bed without compromise. Dr. Scott notes that her patent-pending solutions offer a design that current mattress/bedding technology and competitors do not.

Dr. Scott also noted that, “80% of all couples where one or both snore do not share a bed, despite their desire to do so. But this system makes it possible for anyone to share a bed and enjoy a pleasant and comfortable night’s sleep^.”
