Thank you to the team for helping my client achieve improved comfort during sleep.

Occupational Therapist Zephair

She is loving it, and you cannot hear it! With the mattress set to static, she is falling asleep more quickly and wakes as though she has been sleeping on clouds.

Carer feedback Zephair Lite

We’ve found the Alaise a great option when transitioning clients from alternating air mattresses in preparation for going home. Feedback has been very positive, particularly around comfort and firmness for rolling and bed mobility.

Occupational Therapist Alaise

Five Stars

The feedback so far has been very positive. The Alaise is filling a gap in our mattress offering as a static hybrid option.
