Bed Risers

While doctors routinely recommend the elevation of your bed to help in treating Acid Reflux, only someone who has lived with the condition can help you in sorting out the actual methods involved (cinderblocks, bed risers, bed wedges and mattress lifters) from the perspective of personal experience. If you or someone you love suffers from reflux, please take a moment to read on, because these suggestions can make a real difference in your health and quality of life. Bed risers offer a completely natural, low-cost, practical means of reducing nighttime reflux.

The budget option consists of sturdy plastic risers for under $12. These bed risers come in sets of 4 and can be used singly (as shown at left) or "nested" in pairs to increase the angle of inclination if desired. Remember, an increase of at least 6 inches at the head of your bed is necessary for full effectiveness in treating reflux. >>Learn more

This nifty model is adjustable to 6 different heights without stacking, starting at 3.2 inches. However, maximum height is only 5.2 inches, so these are considered best for raising nightstands, tables, etc. beside your bed. This makes it a lot easier to reach your alarm clock in the morning. The added versatility makes them a good value and complement to standard risers. >>Learn more
