Menopausal Remedies: Ways to Keep Cool During Sleep

SAN FRANCISCO, May 11 /PRNewswire/ -- For women experiencing the various stages and side effects of menopause, staying cool during sleep is a big challenge. Uncomfortable hot flashes and night sweats can be difficult to manage and virtually impossible to predict. But Ellen Dekker, a Bay Area-based psychotherapist, says that sleeping on a McRoskey mattress and box spring helped her sleep cooler and much more comfortably when she was going through menopause.

Dekker wrote to McRoskey Mattress Company to express her satisfaction for the way that her McRoskey helped her to weather certain effects of menopause. She explained, "I, like most menopausal women, struggle with night sweats and being too hot. It's a big quality of life issue."  Dekker said that she tried two different pillow-top mattresses and one foam mattress but they seemed to trap the heat with minimal air circulation. She concluded, "While nothing can stop menopausal women from getting hot at night, my McRoskey mattress continually feels cool; air circulates. It definitely has helped me sleep cooler during menopause."

According to Robin McRoskey Azevedo, president of the McRoskey Mattress Company of San Francisco: "You sleep comfortably cool on any McRoskey because of our construction techniques and the materials we use. Air is not trapped but circulates freely. Cotton covers and filling materials breathe; the generously vented sidewalls of our mattress and box spring allow for air flow as do the flexible coils in the mattress and the box spring."
