Whether people invest in SAMINA for its innovative design and superior back support or because it is non-toxic and made exclusively from natural materials—whatever the reason your bed should also be comfortable. Almost everyone finds the system supremely comfortable, yet every body is also different and SAMINA appreciates the uniqueness of each individual—body shape, size, weight, age, injuries, state of health, and so forth.
Over 35 years of SAMINA experience confirm most people adjust to a new system within the first couple of weeks to discover the most comfortable and restful sleep of their adult lives. We compare this situation to the patient who receives physical therapy or has chiropractic treatment; getting the spine in correct alignment may require the body to adapt.
Infrequently, some people may still want something above and beyond the standard system. The good news is that SAMINA can be modified to remedy their needs. Several of the more popular comfort adjustments are described below. Upon purchasing a SAMINA sleep system, every customer gains access to lifetime consultations. We advise reaching out to a healthy sleep advisor for expert guidance on necessary modifications and optimal solutions.
Comfort Adjustment: Soften Support When Too Firm
Removing every other slat from target areas such as neck, hips, or lower back or lessens the support from the slats while still providing enough for a delightfully comfortable, softer sleeping experience. Because each sleeping partner has his/her own set of SAMINA slats, it’s possible to make individual adjustments that won’t affect the other sleeper. (Figure 1)

Comfort Adjustment: Reduce Pressure on Shoulders
The Shoulder Pendere (or bolsters) were designed by SAMINA for people with broad shoulders to prevent the pain and numbness they may experience when sleeping on their side. When there is discomfort in neck, head and/or upper spine area, replacing several slats with the Shoulder Pendere, a pair of merino wool-filled cushions, can help. (Figure 2)

Comfort Adjustment: More Back Support
Reinforce support with additional rubber inserts added to the slats. Ideal solution when the overall feeling is “too soft”. Two short natural rubber tubes inserted between the slats generally satisfy people who may need additional support, for example, people with larger buttocks or extra abdominal weight. (Figure 3)
