<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span style='font-size:
11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>Thanks for all the input guys. We
are looking at the Tempur-Pedic brand beds for the foam mattress, and the
adjustable base (think hospital bed). This seems to be what gave Susan
the most comfortable position when lying down. We tried a couple
different brands of the memory foam/adjustable base beds in different
firmnesses and kept coming back to the Tempur-pedic as the one she could lay
the longest on with the least discomfort. We both have similar likes in
the firmness area so its helpful that we can remove that difference from the
decision. I would prefer and sleep like a rock on a good quality coil
spring mattress so it may take me some getting use to sleeping on the
adjustable type. A split king would solve this, but it’s not practical
in our house.</span></font><font color=blue><span style='color:blue'><o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span style='font-size:
11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>George, thanks for the thoughts on
acupuncture. We have done that in the past. We currently have been
trying a western science take on that which focuses on the musculature.
IMS (inter muscular stimulation) uses long acupuncture needles to stimulate
tight muscle groups so they can release their tension. This allows the
body to heal those areas. This is often called dry needling and is
similar to trigger point treatments. Susan has gotten some relief from
this which may have uncovered some issues with her sacroiliac joint. It
looks like she may go in for injections for that.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

beds, it helps us make an informed decision.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
